Haematological parameters were examined in sheep of the Tsigai breed. The experiment involved 15 lambing ewes after parturition. Blood samples were taken to an oxalate mixture from the v. jugularis at time intervals given by days 1,4,7,14,17,21,25 and 34 after parturition. Evaluation of the average erythrocyte counts showed the range of their values from 5.46+/-1.26 to 7.24+/-0.76 T/l, haemoglobin concentrations ranged from 7.59+/-1.25 to 9.72+/-1.74 g/dl. Average haematocrit values in the puerperal period did not vary largely, ranging from 32.2+/-5.07 to 35.6+/-2.50 l/l, evaluation of total leukocyte counts showed their range from 5.04+/-2.22 to 8.71+/-4.26 G/l. The per cent of neutrophilic granulocytes ranged from 32.0+/-5.76 to 38.80+/-6.37, of eosinophilic granulocytes from 3.88+/-2.61 to 7.00+/-2.64, of lymphocytes 51.0+/-7.84 to 59.33+/-5.67 and of monocytes from 2.66+/-1.0 to 4.20+/-2.28 in the period of observation.
