Twenty Barbari does, maintained under semi-intensive system of housing, were provided with
different bedding materials (saw dust, chaffed paddy straw, rice husk, slatted wooden, cement
concrete, sand and soil) in winter, summer and rainy season from December 2004 to August 2005
in Tarai region of Uttaranchal to study parasitic load through egg per gram (EPG) count as well as
to ascertain better manure absorption capacity of the litter. Overall EPG values of does in winter,
summer and rainy seasons were 290.6 ± 41.2, 913.13 ± 74.51 and 745.0 ± 57.9 eggs per gram,
respectively. Egg count in winter was significantly lower (P
