A total of eight Landrace pigs were used in this study, consisted of four groups: pigs were fed without hyacinth (A), pigs were fed with 2.5% hyacinth (B), pigs were fed with 5.0% hyacinth (C), and pigs were fed with 7.5% hyacinth (D). Blood were then collected from auricularis superficialis vein. RBC count, hemoglobin level, and the hematocrit ??were measured using routine hematological examination by auto analyzer machine Scil Vet ABC (ABC Vet 16p). Data were then analyzed by one-way ANOVA. The results showed that the administration of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) collected from Lead (Pb) polluted water was not influence the RBC count, hemoglobin level, and the hematocrit in pig (p>0.05).
