Results showed that 90.77 % out of total examined chickens were infested with ecto-parasites, out of that 81.36 % (48/59) were infested with lice such as (Menacanthus&amp;nbsp; stramineus, Goniocotes&amp;nbsp; gallinae, Menopon&amp;nbsp; gallinae, Goniodes&amp;nbsp; gigas, Cuclotogaster&amp;nbsp; heterographus ) and 62.72 (37/59) of it with larval stage of soft tick such as (Argas&amp;nbsp; persicus).&amp;nbsp; Mixed infestations with more than two ecto-parasite species were detected. On the other hand 89.23% out of 65 examined chickens were infected by internal parasites including nematodes and cestodes such as (Heterakis&amp;nbsp; gallinarum which formed 81% and the remains were Ascaridia&amp;nbsp; galli, Cheilospirura&amp;nbsp; hamulosa, Capillaria&amp;nbsp; spp., Raillietina&amp;nbsp; spp., Choanotaenia&amp;nbsp; infundibulum, Amoebotaenia&amp;nbsp; sphenoides, Hymenolepis&amp;nbsp; carioca and&amp;nbsp; Davaniea&amp;nbsp; proglottina).&lt;/p&gt;
