Results showed improvement in blood characterstics , white blood cell count , packed cell volume ( PCV ) , haemoglobin concentration ( Hb) and Albumin , hair weight , staple length a shoulder and legs in March , April and May that were higher in comparison with Decembrr , January and Feburary . The effect was significiant in PCV, Hb and hair traits . Blood parameters increased with exceeding age ( 3 to 4 years ) and then decreased at age of 5 year. The differences were significiant in PCV and Hb . Weight groups did not effect on blood parameters . Age and body weight have influenced hair staple length at shoulder and legs.
