Clinical rickets was detected in eight young goats showed stiffness, stumbling gait, enlargement of carpal joint and costochondrial junctions, benting of forelimbs and increased tendency to laydown and kneeling. Three animals were dyspnoeic. Curvature of long bones and enlargement of epiphyses and costochondrial junctions were revealed on radiographic examination. Hypovitaminosis D3, hypocalcaemia, hypophosphataemia and increased activities of serum alkaline phosphatase, were the remarkable biochemical alterations in rachitic young goats.
