abstract
An Assam hill goat of one and half year was presented to veterinary clinical complex, Lakhimpur College of Veterinary Science with prolonged labour since 11 hours. On clinical examination, slight extended fetal forelimb was observed outside the vulva with anterior longitudinal presentation within the birth canal and by per vaginal finger examination it was diagnosed to be Nape posture. Presence of pinching reflex revealed that the fetus was alive. The fetus was initially lubricated with proper lubricant and delivered carefully by applying repulsion and traction.
