The effect of heather supplementation on gastrointestinal parasites inCashmere does and their kids at pasture was studied. Forty-eight Cashmeregoats and their single kids were randomly assigned to two treatments:supplementation with tannin-containing fresh heather (6.4% total tannins) ornon-supplementation. All goats grazed continuously from May to Septemberunder farm conditions in a mountainous area of northern Spain. Faecal sampleswere taken monthly to evaluate gastrointestinal nematode egg shedding.Twelve goats (7 does and 5 kids) of each treatment were sacrificed at the endof the experiment to count and identify the present gastrointestinal nematodespecies. The mean egg output in supplemented goats was lower than in nonsupplemented,although the difference was only significant (P<0.05) in doesfrom May to August. The mean nematode adult burden was lower insupplemented goats, but a significant (P<0.05) difference was only found in thesmall intestine Trichostrongylus spp. in kids.
