The Clinical and Morphological Characteristics of the Uterus of the Goat during the Period of Involution.

Two goats were slaughtered at zero, 24, 62 hours and five, seven, nine, 12, 15, 18, 21, 25, 28, 32 and 36 days after kidding in order to study the involutionary changes of the uterus.Uterine and vaginal discharges were varied in volume and nature and ceased before the end of day 5 postpartum. Uterine contents were found in greater volumes on days 7 to 9, in lesser volumes thereafter until no longer present on days 12 to 15 postpartum.Dimensions and weights of the genital tracts were returned to their initial nonpregnant state within a period of 28 days after kidding.
