摘要：The aim of the experiment was to study the effect of Thymi aetheroleum on growth performance of Cobb 500 broiler chickens. We incorporated Thymi aetheroleum into plant oil. This mixture was homogenized with components of starter, growth or finish feed mixtures. The experiment lasted 38 days and was realized on a poultry farm designated for fattening of 24 000 birds on deep litter. In the front part of the feeder building, an area for our own experimental model technology of fodder and water feeding was reserved. We arranged two boxes with 100 pieces in each. The experimental and control groups were involved in the experiment. In the experimental group, unlike control group, Thymi aetheroleum at 50 g per 100 kg of feed mixtures was applied. During the experimental verification of the use of Thymi aetheroleum per os, we found that broilers after feeding of feed mixtures with Thymi aetheroleum insignificantly (P>0.05) increased their growth performance, feed intake and improved feed conversion.x
