Abstract

The blood profile and the effects of age, sex and time of bleeding on the parameters were investigated in a 2x 2x 2 factorial experiment using twenty four guinea fowls (Numida meleagrs paths). The results show­ed that erythrocytes values were 2.43+0.04x 106/mm3, t packed cell volume, 37.44%; haerno0obin concentration (gm %), 13.17; etythrocyte sedimentation rate (mm/fir) 1.69; length of red blood cell, 12.89 microns width of P.BC, 6.63 microns, leucocyte count, 22.18+0.64x1031mrn3 and clotting time, 7.30 min. Sex anu sometimes age, time of bleeding and their interactions had signi­ficant effect on these haematological values. Correlations between these were calculated.
