Abstract: Rickets was evaluated in 6 kids out 100 from different
farms in Monofia Governorate of both sex, under 8 months of age.
Clinical signs included anorexia stunded growth arched back, joint enlargement
and abnormal, curvature of fore limb bones of the kids. Fed consisted of yellow corn 60% and dried
trifolium Alexandrun 22% they housed in door, the main biochemical serum
analysis recorded were hyperphosphatemia hypoc-alcemia and decrease the activities of
Alkaline phosphatase significant increase of cortisol hormone. Urea,
creatinine, glucose. P.C.V, and hemoglobin in blood. The results
indicated that rations containing high level of com caused
decreased digestion coefficient of all nutrients for both growing goat kids
(healthy and Rickets). Also Rickets disease decreased digestibility, and
nitrogen balance for kids fed two experimental rations. This study
recommended that using balanced diets affect decreasedsignificantly in
digestion coefficient, feed intake and nitrogen balance.
