Abstract: This research aimed to make a hematological and biochemical characterization of 30 adult sheep Kimichin of Puebla Mexico, belonging to 17 rurals farms. Blood counts of red and white series, complemented by a biochemical profile were made; the data were analyzed in the statistical program SAS 1999. The red series (erythrocytes) showed values of 5.6×106 L-1, makes white 91.2×106 L-1; 48% lymphocytes, platelets ×103 0.62 L-1 and 60 mg cholesterol dL-1. The values of the parameters studied are close to those recorded for other sheep, determined by management and poor health keep quality of this local sheep.
