The article presents the results of assessing the effect of the natural adaptogen Blackfeed, developed on the basis of the mineral sсhungite, used in the diets of broiler chickens of the cross Ross 308 under conditions of poultry production. The use of the Blackfeed as a supplementary feed complex had a positive effect on the metabolism of broiler chickens of the cross Ross-308, which contributed to an increase in the live weight, average daily gain, and optimization of feed conversion. As a result of the research, we have established the positive effect of the Blackfeed® feed additive when administered with compound feed at the rate of 1.0 kg/t.
