RESUMEN
Twenty pregnant WAD goat does were used to assess the effect of pregnancy induced physiological changes at different stages of pregnancy. Pulse Rate values ranges from 80.78±1.63 to 92.35± 1.47(BPM), showing significant (p<0.05) increases as gestation periods (months) increases. Significant differences (p<0.05) were also observed in respiratory rate during course of gestation and the values of 16.73± 0.43 to 18.95±0.59 were obtained. When rectal temperature was measured during pregnancy, the result shows that pregnancy caused significant (P<0.05) increased in rectal temperature and the value increased with the course of gestation too, with values ranging from 39.33±0.25 to 41.22±.0.53. Thus, it was concluded that pregnancy induces physiological changes in does, especially as the course of gestation increases in months.
