Abstract

Thirteen newly labored Maghrebi she-camels, categorized according to the number of parities and the order of parturition, into three groups (1-2 parities), (3-4 parities) and (5-6 parities). Udder measurements were taken before and after hand milking on the eighth postpartum day and at the end of the eighth week post-partum. Measurements of the right and left milk veins were also taken on the eighth day after parturition. The daily milk yield of the She-Camel was estimated weekly from the eighth day of parturition until the end of the eighth week. The udder measurements after milking decreased clearly, but not significant, and the measurements of the eighth week after calving compared to the measurements of the eighth
day were non-significant increase.The udder measures increased with the increase in the multiple parities, but it was significant between the first group (1-2 parities) and other two groups (3-4 parities) and (5-6 parities). Differences between measures of the right and left milk veins were not significant,as their values (Length and Diameter) increased with the
progression in the multiple parities until the difference between the first group (1-2 parities) and the last two groups was significant. The daily milk yield increased with the progression of time from parturition even the end of the eighth week, and also with the rise in the multiple Parities, but the significant increase occurred in the last two groups at the seventh and eighthweek after calving
