Abstract

Oesophagostomiasis is an important parasitic disease of goat caused by Oesophagostomum columbianum. Burdens of only a few hundred worms are associated with anorexia, diarrhea and ill thrift, resulting in poor growth of the animal. Pimply gut alone accounts for 3.16% intestinal condemnation (Kusiluka et al., 1995).
