The study was conducted to monitor hematological and biochemical changes in Murrah buffalo calves at monthly interval from one to six months of age. Hemoglobin, packed cell volume, total and differential leukocyte count, platelets, aspartate aminotransferase, gamma glutamyl transferase, serum total protein, serum albumin, serum urea nitrogen, plasma fibrinogen, potassium and chloride. Two groups of calves were identified with bimodal distribution in Hb, PCV, TLC and DLC values between 1-3 months of age. Significant age related changes were recorded for serum albumin, serum urea nitrogen, plasma fibrinogen and chloride. This study describes physiological limits of hematological and biochemical values in buffalo calves.
