The overall prevalence of pseudopregnancy and an assessment of a number of risk factors (season of the year, parity and milk productivity) on the incidence of goats of the Zaanen breed with false pregnancy (hydrometra) was studied. The research was carried out on a goat-breeding dairy farm of LLC Eco Farm Klimovskaya in the Kaluga region of the Russian Federation. The disease was diagnosed by ultrasound examination in all months and periods of the year. The seasonal increase in morbidity was noted at the peak of the breeding season in the autumn months of the year. The highest incidence rate (11.97%) was recorded in parous goats who have given birth one or two with a milk production level of 2 kg/day or less, the lowest once (3.92%) – in nulliparous females. The overall prevalence of pseudopregnancy was 9.31%.
