Abstract
A total number of 75 Ostrich of various breads, sexes and ages were used. The study revealed that 25 % among examined Ostrich infested with Ascaridia, 17.3 % infested with Libostrngyloides, 13.3 % with Cryptosporidium, 8 % with Blantidium spp., 14.6 % Giardia spp., 9.3 % Trichomonas spp. and 12 % Coccidia spp. Also, the biochemical changes in serum show a significant decrease in protein, albumin, globulin, glucose and calcium and show a slightly decrease in cholest-erol and non significante change in sodium and phosphorus.
