The results of the studies showed that the inclusion of compound feed protein supplement “Biobardin” in the amount of 3-5% had a positive effect on the main indicators of productivity (preservation and increase in live weight) of broiler chickens. The feed obtained using Biobardin was characterized by a higher content of protein, organic acids, bacteriocins, and also contained the biomass of lactic acid and propionic acid bacteria. It was established that the broiler chickens absorbed enriched mixed feed more efficiently than the chickens, which consumed similar mixed feed without the studied additives. The broiler chickens from the experimental groups were significantly superior to their peers from the control group: the chickens not only grow better, use feed more economically, but also effectively transform the nutrients of the diet into body weight gain. On the basis of the results of experimental feedings, near-complete preservation of young birds, rapid development and weight gain, good physical condition, absence of diseases, good food intake were noted. The introduction of 5% protein feed additive “Biobardin” into the broilers’ diet can be a real competitor to the traditional source - fish flour or alternatively be used in industrial poultry farming along with it.
