Abstract: The present experiment was conducted at ARC-CSWRI for thirteen weeks on Magra lambs of 3-4 months of age to observe the effect of incorporation of dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) in total mixed ration of magra lambs on blood parameters. The lambs were used in a randomized block design and divided into four groups of 5 lambs in each group (T1-T4). Blood samples were collected at monthly interval by puncturing jugular vein following aseptic measures. No significant effect of incorporation of dried distillers grain with solubles i.e. DDGS was observed at each month of experimental period and also on overall mean values of haemoglobin (Hb), packed cell volume, total erythrocyte count (TEC) and total leukocytes count (TLC). It was concluded that DDGS can be incorporated in lamb ration up to level of 15% without having any detrimental effect on health of lamb.
