Haematological parameters in ten apparently healthy adult horses at Mountain research Centre for Sheep and Goat, SKUAST Kashmir were examined to establish their reference values. The mean red blood cell (RBC) counts, packed cell volume (PCV), haemoglobin (Hb) concentration, white blood cell (WBC) counts, mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular haemoglobin (MCH) and mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration (MCHC) were found to be comparable with the normal values. The mean absolute values of neutrophil, eosinophil, lymphocyte, monocyte and basophil were also within the normal range. In conclusion, the RBC, PCV, Hb, WBC, MCV, MCH, MCHC, neutrophils, eosinophils, lymphocytes monocytes, and basophils recorded in horses at Mountain research Centre for Sheep and Goat, SKUAST Kashmir were comparable with those values reported in other clinically healthy horses in different parts of the world.
