Abstract: The probiotic "Bacispecin" having the bacterial titer of 108 CFU/mL was added to the diet of goslings at 1 mL per bird per day for 7 days and the treatment was repeated in 7 day cycles during the experimental period of 56 days. The use of the probiotic resulted in an increase of 17.4% in the average daily weight gain of goslings and a decrease of 9.3% in the consumption of the feed compared w ith the control group. The pre-slaughter weight exceeded the value in the control group by 13.9%, the dressed weight by 22.9%, the carcass yield by 4.6 absolute Percentage. The mass values of the glandular and muscular stomach, heart and liver were larger by 31.7, 20.2, 39.4 and 18.5%, respectively, than in the control group which points to a better development of internal organs in goslings of the experimental groups. Increased bifidobacteria and lactobacilli were found in the gut microflora of the experimental group goslings whereas the pathogenic and opportunistic pathogenic microflora decreased. Increased values of hemoglobin concentration, erythrocytes, total protein, creatinine, urea, uric acid, glucose, cholesterol, bilirubin were found within the physiological range. The breeding profitability increased by 13.5 absolute percentage.
