In this study, we evaluated the effectiveness of the probiotic supplement BACELL-M® when added to the diet of Big-6 turkeys. This supplement contains prebiotics and strains of Bacillus subtilis 945 (B-5225), Lactobacillus paracasei (B-2347), and Enterococcus faecium M-3185 (B-3491). For this study, the turkeys were divided into two groups based on the paired-analog principle, with five individuals in each group. Group 1 received the feed additive BACELL-M® at a dose of 10 g per 1 kg of feed added to their main diet. Group 2 served as the control. The weight gain dynamics for each group were assessed daily. On the 40th day, blood samples were taken to evaluate biochemical parameters. After slaughter, samples of the large intestine were collected for morphological studies. The experimental group showed superior results according to the studied criteria compared to the control group. The results also indicated increased meat productivity in the turkeys supplemented with BACELLM ®. This suggests the potential of using this dietary supplement as a preventive measure against gastrointestinal dsiseases in turkeys.
