Abstract
An experiment was conducted in Algerian desert goats to study the effect of age and season on blood bio-chemical and mineral profile during different physiological stages of the goats. Serum Ca, Mg and Na le-vels were significantly high at birth and decreases as the age advanced. The season had a significant effect on the decreased levels of Ca, Mg and K and inversely on the increased levels of Na during dry season. The Ca (80.02±4.84 mg/L), Mg (22.14±1.61 mg/L), Na (142±1.73 mEq/L) and K (6.43±0.40 mEq/L) in pre-gnant goats were significantly higher than in non-pregnant and lactating goats.
