Abstract

Hematologic and serum chemistry values were determined for chicks, juveniles, and adult farmed lesser rheas (Prerocnemia pennata). Blood samples were taken during March-April 1998 from the brachial veins of lesser rhea, including 64 chicks, 24 juveniles, and 36 adults, raised in Patagonian farms (Argentina). Lesser rhea chicks had significantly lower erythrocyte counts, hematocrit, hemoglobin, red cell indices, and copper than did the juveniles and adult individuals. No significant differences were observed between females and males. Most values were similar to those reported for other ratites. The data obtained provide hematologic and serum chemistry values for lesser rhea from farms.

摘要

对养殖的雏鸟、幼鸟和成年小美洲鸵（美洲鸵鸟属）进行了血液学和血清化学值测定。1998年3月至4月期间，从阿根廷巴塔哥尼亚农场饲养的小美洲鸵的臂静脉采集了血样，其中包括64只雏鸟、24只幼鸟和36只成年鸟。小美洲鸵雏鸟的红细胞计数、血细胞比容、血红蛋白、红细胞指数和铜含量显著低于幼鸟和成年个体。未观察到雌性和雄性之间存在显著差异。大多数值与其他平胸鸟类报告的值相似。所获得的数据提供了来自农场的小美洲鸵的血液学和血清化学值。
