I have purchased young goats that were wethered very early in life. Their bladders are not fully formed and they are prone to this problem. I lost 2 goats to this in spite of vet calls and surgerys. Since then, I have waited till my little males are 4 months old to wether them and have had no problems. Unfortunately some vets are still neutering at birth.
