Abstract :This study was carried out to determine the normal haematological and biochemical parameters of clinically healthy ostriches 1-3 years old of either sex. Red blood cells, white blood cells, haematocrit and haemoglobin values insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(as haematological parameters); and glucose, total protein, albumin, globulin, urea, kreatinine, serum enzymes insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(ALP, AST, ALT, GGT, CK, amilase); insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(as biochemical parameters); and electrolytes insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Ca, P, Mg, Zn, Cu, Na, K, Cl); levels were measured. It was concluded that the values obtained in this study could be used as reference values for ostriches.
