- Abstract
The experiment was designed to assess the effect of drought on white blood cell indices in 100 goats of both sex in western part of Rajasthan. All animals belonged to farmers' stock. The parameters included total leucocyte count (TLC) (103/μl), differential leucocyte count (DLC) viz. Neutrophils (%), Lymphocytes (%), Eosinophils (%), Basophils (%) and Monocytes (%) and the over all mean values were 7.967 ± 0.085, 36.900 ± 0.570, 53.090 ± 0.224, 2.760 ± 0.124, 0.710 ± 0.065 and 3.210 ± 0.142, respectively in goat. The effect of sex and age was also observed. It was found that the sex and age effect was significant (p<0.05) only on the mean values of total leucocyte count (TLC) in goats.
