The article is devoted to the study of the intensity of growth and development of quails us-ing a nanostructured preparation. The object of the study was the Texas white quail (n = 45), at the age of 10 days, which were divided into 1 control and 4 experimental groups. Birds from the exper-imental groups were given a complex preparation in various doses and forms to the main diet, con-sisting of compound feed DK-52. It was found that birds are intensively gaining live weight in the first 28 days of feeding. The average daily gains in live weight increased in quails from group 1 by 8.3 %, group 2 – 12.9 %, group 3 – 3.8 % and group 4 – 24.9 % compared with birds of the control group. Starting from the 35th day, there is a decrease in the average daily gain. The best results for both 28 and 56 days were shown by quails in group 4, which received a complex preparation at a dose of 1 % of the diet weight.
