Significant differences were observed in the hematocrit, alkaline phosphatase, CO2-M and anion gap (p < 0.01), as well as mean corpuscular hemoglobin, a-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase, Mg2+, erythrocyte number, glutamicpuruvic transaminase, total protein and total bile acid (p < 0.05) of different sexes. The results may provide a reference for feeding, health examination, diagnosis, and breeding of blue peafowl. http://pubs.sciepub.com/jfnr/3/2/5/jfnr-3-2-5.pdf blue peafowl blood physiological values biochemical values
