Comparison of blood parameters among neonates were generally uniform and differences detected were negligible. The post-parturient cows were at a physiological low when compared to non post-parturient cows. The calves also reflected low levels of critical blood values. The physiologic and morphometric measurements provide baseline data for future comparisons of post-parturient cows and neonatal calves.</p> ER -
