Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) plays a significant role in augmenting the economic and nutritional status of varied population across the globe. The turkey farming and its production is gaining momentum as a new agricultural avenue for the commercial production of meat in India. The present study reports the normal physiological values of haematological indices and biochemical profile of the adult female turkey under Agro-climatic conditions of Mizoram. The observed biochemical parameters were Glucose-355.50±43.38 mg/dl, Total cholesterol-130.75±22.02 mg/dl, Triglyceride-62.50±32.22 mg/dl, HDL-cholesterol-87.50±9.88 mg/dl, Total protein-5.25±0.79 gm/dl, Albumin-1.88±0.29 gm/dl, Globulin-3.38±0.51 gm/dl, A:G-0.56±0.02 gm/dl, Uric acid-7.73±2.93 mg/dl, BUN-3.40±0.49 mg/dl, Creatinine- 0.40±0.08 mg/dl, Direct bilirubin-0.10±0.00 mg/dl and Total bilirubin-0.20±0.00 mg/dl.
