Hematological Profile in Donkey Depending on Lactation

The factors that influence the hematological profile of the donkeys are: nutrition, reproduction, season, lactation, parturition, maintenance and animal health. Knowing the hematological parameters represents a breakthrough in the development of work programs and nutritional programs in the donkey farms and greatly helps the possibility of the conservation of the donkeys, a species that until now has been neglected in our country. For haematological parameters, significant changes can be observed under the influence of lactation as follows: WBC (G/L) may have a lower mean average in lactation I, (9.66 ± 0.56) and further in lactation, reaching a higher value average in lactation IV (13.57 ± 0.80). Hb (g/L) behaves similar to WBC, reaching the highest average values in IV lactation, (131.30 ± 3.56). LYM (%) in lactation I, (38.72 ± 0.69) and in lactation 2, 3 and 4 similar average values. MON (%) manifests thus, under the influence of lactation, having an interval between (1.14 ± 0.16), lactation I and (1.42 ± 0.17) in lactation IV.
