The colostrum (which his dam is probably still giving) has a laxative effect, and if he is making a little pig of himself his stool will be loose. This is especailly true if his mother is a heavy milker and he is a single kid. if he is otherwise normal this should straighten itself out in a couple of days.

looking for a little advice. I have a nigerian baby buck that has a loose yellow stool. He is 2 days old, seems alert, and his belly has "some" milk in it. Any suggestions?
thanks
carlene
