Abstract

Faeces from 20 calves aged 13 +/- 5 days were examined for Toxocara vitulorum eggs fortnightly for a period of 20 weeks. The age of calves when eggs were first detected varied from 24 to 110 days (mean 41 +/- 20 days). The mean egg count varied from 257 to 19,821 g-1 of faeces with a highest count of 68,400. The patency period of T. vitulorum lasted from 14 to 112 days (mean 65 +/- 30 days). None of the calves showed clinical signs of illness.
