This study was devoted to determination of normal physical andchemical values of 100 sample of Ovine and Caprine urine withmicroscopically examination of urine samples sterilely collectedfrom sheep & goat slaughtered in Al-Shulla governmental slaughterhouse between may and November 2004 as well as demonstration ofchanges in these values in case of presence of microbes in urine .Thisstudy illustrated no significant differences(P<0.05) of urine analysisvalues between sheep & goat but these values significantlychanged(P<0.05)with the presence of microbes in urine and thesechanges included opacity of urine, decrease of specific gravity &increase of urine pH.25 sample were positive to protein test with concentration extent from 200to 1000mg/dl , 11 samples (44%) were positive to penzedin test. Thebacterial culture of the urine sample showed different species of bacteria thetotal presence of bacteria was 25% in both sheep & goat includingStaphylococcus aurous, Streptococcus spp, Corynobacterium renale,Escherichia coli, Protes vulgaris and Klebsiella pneumonia .
