A study was carried out to evaluate the effect of group size on some behavioral patterns, body weight, body
measurements and hematological parameters of domestic goat. Adult female Shiba goats (Capra hircus) (n=12)
were divided randomly to 2 groups according to the group size. The first group contains 4 animals (small size
group) while the second one contains 8 animals (large size group). Behavior was recorded by using continuous
focal sampling throughout the period of the study, growth parameters were measured every two weeks along the
whole period of the study and blood samples were collected monthly to estimate the effect of group size on
blood picture. Results revealed that group size affected significantly on some behavioral patterns of goat
(P0.05) affected by the
group size.
