Intraclass coefficients, how strongly the puppies within a litter resemble each other

7 weeks 12–13 months 15–18 months Mean
Faecal IgA 0.62 0.12 −0.04 0.24
Serum IgA 0.25 0.48 0.45 0.43
Serum IgE −0.01 0 0.1 0.11
IgG against CDV 0.61 0.27 0.20 0.41

The closer to 1, the stronger is the litter effect
