AB  - Haematlogical measurements and certain biochemical parameters were estimated in 50 samples of blood collected at slaughter from young (3-4 months old) Magaheim dromedary camels. Mean values for Haemoglobin (Hb), Packed Cell Volume (PCV) and Red Cells Count (RBC) were 9.3&plusmn;0.3 g dL<SUP>-1</SUP>, 0.33&plusmn;0.3 L L<SUP>-1</SUP> and 7.4&plusmn;0.3x10<SUP>12</SUP> L<SUP>-1</SUP>, respectively. Values for Mean Cell Volume (MCV), Mean Cell Haemoglobin (MCH) and Mean Cell Haemoglobin Concentration (MCHC) were reported. Total and deferential leuckocyte counts were estimated. The neutrophil was found to be the predominant white cell (49.1&plusmn;0.15). Mean values for total protein, albumin, blood  glucose,  calcium  and  phosphorus  were  52.0&plusmn;0.3  and  24.0&plusmn;0.3  g L<SUP>-1</SUP>;  6.6&plusmn;0.4,  2.6&plusmn;0.3 and 1.4&plusmn;0.2 mmoL L<SUP>-1</SUP>, respectively. Results of all these parameters were tabulated and discussed in relation to other findings reported in camels.
