Full details of the goat, exhibitor and action taken, must be reported in writing to the BGS Secretary immediately after the show.

Please note that if kiddings occur in animals from premises not registered under the scrapie monitoring scheme or category IV of the Sheep and Goat Health Scheme, the scrapie status of all animals at the unsegregated show/sale and premises (if those animals return) may be jeopardised. To try to limit the effect of such kiddings or abortions, the show secretary should report them immediately to the local DVM to allow a visit to the showground by an Animal Health/Veterinary Officer who can then conduct an enquiry and more easily identify the animals put at risk.
