Kids experimentally superinfected with Eimeria showed reduced food intake at the early patency period, higher numbers of oocysts passed at weaning time and lower liveweight gain than the Amprolium-medicated kids. In the Eimeria superinfected kids the trichostrongyle infection caused a tendency to result in chronic coccidial infections. Further, these animals had higher numbers of nematode eggs in their faeces, lower dressed weights on slaughter and inferior meat quality. aEimeria aGoats aParasitology aCabrito aCaprino aCoccidiose aInfecção aParasitologia animal1 aCUQUERELLA, M.1 aCARRERA, L.1 aALUNDA, J.
