Abstract

Egg production is associated with the compositional quality of food and nutritional efficiency of the birds, but there are foods that help improve the zootechnical parameters in birds such as, for example, probiotics. In this work the effect of using probiotic microorganisms on the weight, egg size and egg-laying percentage in laying hens, matched with a control group was compared. Large significant differences for the variables studied were found, showing a positive effect on the use of probiotics in poultry feed.
