The study was conducted to determine the hematological profiles of 16 goats using the BC-3000 Auto Hematology Analyzer Comparison of hematological parameter values such as WBC, RBC, hemoglobin, lymphocyte and hematocrit count between male and female goats manifested non-significant differences, while monocyte and eosinophil counts exhibited significant differences.

The WBC, RBC, hemoglobin, MCV, MCH, MCHC, platelet and lymphocyte counts revealed significant differences among the age groups of goats. On the other hand, monocyte count showed non-significant difference among the age groups of goats.
The hematological count of red blood cell, hemoglobin and lymphocytes below the normal value were 57%, 69% and 50%, respectively, while within the normal value of WBC, RBC, Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration, platelet and lymphocytes were 88%, 31%, 25%, 100%, 56% and 44%, respectively.

White Blood Cell, Red Blood Cell, hemoglobin, Mean Corpuscular Volume, Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin, platelet, monocytes and lymphocytes counts beyond their normal values were 88%, 12%, 6%, 100%, 100%, 43%, 25% and 6%, respectively. Statistical analysis used the descriptive and correlation analysis.
