              Abstract
              
                            
                            
                            An experiment was carried out to evaluate the effect 
                            of mineral supplementation on post-parturient 
                            complication in pregnant goats and perinatal 
                            mortality in their kids. The study revealed 
                            increased in survival percentage of kids and reduced 
                            post parturient complication during kidding in 
                            mineral supplemented group than non supplemented 
                            group. From the present study it is concluded that 
                            the supplementation of mineral mixture @ 15gm per 
                            day orally for 60 days during advance stage of 
                            pregnancy in does increased survival percent of kids 
                            and reduced post-parturient complications during 
                            kidding than non supplemented group.
