Bloat is classified into two main types frothy bloat and free gas bloat. Frothy bloat is typically associated with lush, high-protein pastures, such as alfalfa or clover. The protein-rich diets cause the production of a stable foam that traps gas, making it difficult for the animal to eructate, or belch, the excess gas. Conversely, free gas bloat occurs when there is a physical obstruction in the esophagus or a lack of motility in the rumen that prevents gas from escaping.

Coccidia thrive in environments with poor sanitation, where overcrowding is prevalent, and can proliferate rapidly under certain conditions. Young goats, particularly those under six months of age, are the most susceptible to severe coccidiosis due to their underdeveloped immune systems.
