The present study was taken up with the objective to assess the knowledge level and adoption of scientific kid health management practices among the goat owners under field conditions. The study showed that majority of the respondents had knowledge on cleaning of mucous from mouth and nostril just after birth, feeding of colostrums as early as possible, cutting of naval cord with sterilized blade, dipping of naval cord with antiseptic solution and providing warmth in winter months. It was revealed that the mean knowledge score of goat owners in kid health management was medium and the mean adoption index was low. It was revealed that the income in goat farming, farming experience and family education status were the main factors associated significantly with the goat owners’ knowledge on kid health management while knowledge level and social participation were the main factors associated with adoption of kid health management.
