Abstract
Haematological parameters of 28 pregnant camels (Camelus dromedarius) were compared with those of 32 non-pregnant camels (C. dromedarius). The parameters compared were: total erythrocytes count (RBC), haemoglobin (Hb), packed cell volume (PCV), mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular haemoglobin, mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration and total leucocyte count (TLC). Results obtained indicate that RBC, Hb and PCV decreased in the later stages of pregnancy while TLC remained unchanged. Calculated indices revealed a significant increase in MCV (p < 0.02) of pregnant camels.
