In the majority of adult sheep there are one or both of two genetically determined haemaglobin types designated Hb-A or Hb-B. The three phenotypes are A, AB or B. These haemoglobin types can be identified by differences in electrophoretic moblility (Harris and Warren, Evans et al 1956). A third haemoglobin type, designated Hb-C, is associated with the Hb-A gene and is produced under conditions resulting in anaemia (Blunt and Evans, 1963). There is slme evidence of a relationship between haemoglobin types and variations in certain physiological characteristics or productive traits (Agar et al 1972). In an earlier study of experimental
