Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) contributes significantly to the economy of the nation. Turkey husbandry is gaining momentum as a new agricultural activity for the commercial production of meat in India. Blood biochemical profile such as glucose, calcium, total protein, AST, ALT, urea, chloride levels are of diagnostic value for various disease conditions and having particular reference to liver disorders, kidney diseases, diarrhea, dehydration etc. The observed plasma electrolyte and diagnostic enzyme profile were calcium-12.38±0.99 mg/dl, inorganic phosphorus-8.05±1.39 mg/dl, magnesium-3.28±0.17 mg/dl, sodium-136.50±35.98 mEq/l, potassium-3.10±0.64 mEq/l, chloride-100.50±30.64 mEq/l, ALT-1.00±0.00 U/l, AST-351.50±118.14 U/l, alkaline phosphatase-125.25±38.39 U/l.
