In: Zagazig Veterinary Journal 2011.v.39(4)Summary: Blood and serum samples were collected from 25 adult sheep (9-24 month old) in Kalubia governorate. The animals were suffered from stiffness, weakness, trembling in limbs, incoordination and inability to stand. Five apparently healthy adult sheep were used as control. Examination of two ration samples (offered to affected and non affected animals) proved to be balanced. Ration was free from rancidity and aflatoxin, while ochratoxin was detected in the ration which had been eaten by sheep showed clinical sings. Such ration was deficient in phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and copper, while the molybdenum level was high when compared with the ration given to healthy animals. The values of total RBCS, PCV, Hb, MCH and MCHC were significantly low in the affected sheep compared to that of thc control. Analysis of serum microelements revealed significant decrease in copper. iron and zinc levels.
