This scientific article presents the results of a study of the reproductive ability of males of Kazakh double-humped camels (borax) in the continental climate of Western Kazakhstan. The study was conducted in the peasant farm of S.K. Sundetkaliev, Zhangalinsky district, from 2019 to 2024. The developed research scheme made it possible to study the behavior and physiological parameters of animals in three key periods: before the beginning of the sexual season (September-October), during the periodof active sexual activity (December-April) and after the extinction of sexual characteristics (May).The main attention was paid to the clinical manifestations of sexual activity, as well as the nature and peculiarities of the manifestation of sexual reflexes in males. The study included observations of the behavior of Borax, as well as measurements of body temperature, pulse rate and respiration twice a day —in the morning and in the evening. The results showed that with the beginning of the breeding season, males show marked aggressiveness and a change in eating behavior —they refuse to feed and actively seek out females. These changes are accompanied by characteristic physical reactions, such as foaming at the mouth and rhythmic contractions of the upper lip muscles. Physiological parameters also undergo significant changes. After the completion of mating, there is an increase in body temperature, which is associated with an increase in sexual activity.Thus, the results of the study emphasize the importance of taking into account the physiological changes in borax during the breeding season in order to optimize their maintenance conditions and control the reproductive process. Understanding these processes can help improve breeding methods and increase 32animal productivity. In the future, it is necessary to continue studying the influence of various factors on the reproductive performance of camels in order to develop effective breeding strategies in Kazakhstan
