Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of nematodes infection on pcv value in Goats, Sheep, Horse, Donkey and Cattle’s. A total of 469 samples of faecal and blood were collected and transported to laboratory for detection of nematodes eggs and determine pcv value. The results obtained revealed that the higher prevalence rate of nematodes in study animals was on donkey when compared with others. The prevalence rate was higher in summer season than other autumn and winter. The effect of nematodes infection on PCV was found significantly lower (P<0.05) in Haemonchus spp, Trichostrongylus spp and Strongyloides spp when compared with Ascaris spp, Strongylus spp and Oxyuris spp.
