All the rabbits had low body condition score, emaciation with reduced fat stores and muscle wasting. The hair coat was rough and faecal material was adherent to the hair on the perineum. Pri-mary gross pathologic changes were observed in small intestines which found to be distended and filled with gray-greeen semisolid ingesta. The intestinal mucosa was severely hyperemic and oe-dematous. Macroscopic lesions were observed neither in the liver nor in the other organs. In the present study sporulation time of 72 hours could be observed at room temperature. Initially, the oocysts were non-sporulated. In this study, direct smears of the faecal sample examination revealed the presence of unsporulated oocysts (Figure-1) and up on sporulation, sporulated oocysts were noticed
(Figure-2). Oocysts counts were ranged from 13,200 to 16,400.
