الملخص EN

Twelve Iraqi one-humped female camels (Camelus dromedarius) of 7- 8 years old presented in the Animal Farm, College of Veterinary Medicine, University of Anbar were used in this study during the period of 1/9/2012 to 1/1/2013.

The study were designed to find out the effect of some months of year on the levels of some blood biochemical parameters.

Results showed that there is no significant effects of months on globulin, urea and creatinine.

Results also showed that glucose, ALT, Alkaline phosphatase activity and HDL were high during October (P<0.05) and low in other months.

Total protein, albumin, AST, cholesterol and Triglycerides were high (P<0.05) during September (P<0.05) compared with other months.

In Conclusion, there are few variation between the present findings and those from previous workers that may be attributed to the season or months assay.
