Honamlı goats have been defined and recorded as a new breed but the literature is very limited on these goats. In terms of meat production, they have been reported as having some of the highest potential among the goat breeds in Turkey. The aim of the present study was to determine the alterations in blood serum chemistry values in the puberty period in Honamlı and Native Hair goats. Selected biochemistry parameters were chosen due to their association with meat production potential. Blood samples of Honamlı (n = 90, 45 animals for each sex) and Native Hair goats (n = 90, 45 animals for each sex) were obtained from goat herds in the Western Mediterranean region of Turkey. The values of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alanine transaminase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), creatine kinase (CK), calcium, cholesterol, creatinine, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, total lipids, triglycerides and uric acid were measured in the sera obtained from blood samples of males and females in equal numbers of each species, in the three age groups of 4, 8 and 12 months. One-way analysis of variance and the Tukey test were performed for statistical evaluation. In both male and female animals, ALT, AST, CK, calcium, cholesterol, creatinine, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, total lipids, triglycerides and uric acid levels exhibited significant (P<0.05) differences between the age groups. Our findings suggest that there are age-associated parallel increases of ALT values in female goats and total lipid values in male goats. The present study also reveals that the analyzed biochemical values usually change after 4 months of age when compared with the other age groups.
