Sheep and goats served as material for the study as well as theirlambs and kids. The animals from the experimental group, duringthe period of pregnancy, were fed with carotenoidpreparation “Kagadin” in a dose of 20 mg в-carotene/head/day, and 30 and 15 days before the expected lambing theywere injected “Kaplaestrol” intra-abdominally at the rate of 300 units of estrogen/kg live weight/day. According to thereceived data, the elaborated method for preventing perinatal pathology is effective and its implementation can:a) enhance the vitality of the newborn animals (increasing the number of lambs and kids with asatisfactory clinicalcondition); b) reduce the number of animals with unsatisfactory clinical state and low development potential by 11.1%and 5.4%, as well as lower sickness rate - 9.5% and 7.4% and lower mortality rate - 7.5% and 4.2%, respectively;c)prevent the occurrence of lambing hypofunction (shorter duration of the individual periods of the lambing processincluding: the preparation for delivery by 0.18 h for sheep and 0.14 h for goats, expulsion of the lamb by 5.17 min and4 , 14 min, and expulsion of the afterbirth by 6.43 min. and 2.50 min. respectively), and d)reduce the number of animalswith the obstetric pathologies (by 8.2% and 8.7% respectively in sheep and goats)
