| Abstract | ||
| This study was conducted at animal farm / Collage of Agriculture, Basrah University, during the period from October 2014 to January 2015 .Twenty Arabi ewes were randomly selected and divided into two groups ( dry and lactated ewes) , this ewe at 3.5- 4.5 years old and 23-36 kg of body weight .Animal Nitrated 2 % barley of body weight with dry and green . foregoes for 90 days . The aim of this study to evaluate the effect physiological status on some blood biochemical parameters (urea , albumin , total protein , cholesterol and glucose) and wool traits as crude and clean wool weight , staple and fiber length of Arabi ewes. The study result present that were significant increase(P<0.05) in urea concentration in lactated ewes compared with dry ewes at beginning of study . Total protein concentration were significant increase(P<0.05) in lactated ewes at beginning of study while were significant decrease(P<0.05) in cholesterol and glucose concentration in lactated ewes compared with dry ewes at beginning of study and at 90 days of study. The study result showed that were significant improve(P<0.05) in crude and clean wool weight , staple and fiber length in dry ewes compared with lactated ewes at every pried of study | ||
