Abstract: The present study evaluated the effect of origin of dystocia (maternal and fetal) on certain haemato-biochemical parameters in goats. A total of 18 goats were selected and divided into three groups as maternal dystocia (Gr-I; n=6), fetal dystocia (Gr-II; n=6) and normally kidded goats (Gr-III; n=6). The blood sample was collected at four different intervals viz., just prior to (P1), immediately after (P2), on 7th day (P3) and 11th day (P4) of assisted or normal kidding. The results indicated that values of Hb, TLC, MCH, MCHC, were significantly (p<0.05) higher in fetal dystocia, whereas values of PCV and TEC counts were significantly (p<0.05) higher in goats with maternal dystocia. The calcium and phosphorus concentration was non-significantly low in dystocia goats when compared to normal kidding. It was concluded that the certain hematological parameters viz. Hb, PCV, TEC, TLC, MCH and MCHC altered in dystocia affected goats, which useful for proper post-maneuver management of this ailment.
