The importance of prompt evaluation and care of the newborn is essential for reducing neonatal mortality, which represents a major cause of loss in camelids. This study investigated the blood gases, acid-base and electrolyte profiles in healthy dromedary calves during the first 3 weeks of life, assessing possible associations with age. Twenty-one dromedary camel calves aged 1 to 21 days were sampled, and venous whole blood analyzed through a VETSTAT® analyzer. The following parameters were measured: sodium (Na⁺), potassium (K⁺), chloride (Cl^–), hydrogen ion concentration (pH), partial pressure carbon dioxide (pCO₂), partial pressure oxygen (pO₂), total hemoglobin concentration (tHb), hemoglobin oxygen saturation (sO₂), total carbon dioxide (tCO₂), bicarbonate (HCO₃^–), base excess (BE) and anion gap (AG). Calves were divided in two groups; younger calves (1–10 d), and older calves (11–21 d). Statistical analysis showed an effect of age, with lower K⁺ (p < 0.001) and higher Na⁺ and Cl⁻ (p < 0.05) mean concentrations in the younger calves compared to the older ones, and higher pCO₂ and lower sO₂ mean concentrations in the older group. These preliminary results firstly described the blood gas, acid-base and electrolyte profiles in the healthy dromedary calf during the first 3 weeks of age, suggesting an effect of age on some parameters.
