Haemoglobin, glucose, alkaline phophatase and creatinine level in blood showed increasing trend in all the three breeds used. The increase in level of these components was minimum in Gaolao and maximum in buffalo bullocks. These results indicated that the Gaolao bullocks are better suitable for draft purpose.
