The study was conducted on 24 non infectious repeat breeding buffaloes to study hematology and behavioral changes when treated with Ovsynch plus CIDR along with antioxidant. Selected buffaloes were equally divided into four treatment groups. Group 1 Ovsynch protocol, Group 2 treated with Ovsynch along with antioxidant, Group 3 Ovsynch plus CIDR and Group 4 treated with Ovsynch plus CIDR and antioxidant. Mean Haemoglobin (g/dl), Packed Cell Volume (%), Total Protein (g/dl), Albumin (g/dl) and Globulin (g/dl) values in Group 1, 2, 3 and 4 have no significant difference on different days of treatment. Signs of estrus were more pronounced in buffaloes treated with hormonal protocols along with antioxidant. Estrus was observed as intense, intermediate and weak in Group 1 as (16.66, 66.66 and 16.66%), in Group 2 as (33.33, 50.00 and 16.66%), in Group 3 as (16.66, 83.33 and 00.00%) and in Group 4 as (50.00, 33.33 and 16.66%), respectively.
