The recorded incidence of dystocia in does was 39.38% being higher in the month of August (62.50%) followed by March-May (50.00%) and June-July (46.15%).Ring womb/indialation of cervix, uterine twisting were the major causes for maternal dystocia while the postural abnormalities includes deviation of head, hip flexion, shoulder flexion and breech presentation and were responsible for fetal dystocia.
