Abstract: The purpose of the study is to determine the effect of administering a probiotic based on B. amyloliquefaciens on the microflora of the gastrointestinal tract and the productivity of young goats. The probiotic Bacillus amyloliquefaciens VKPM B-11475 at a dose of 4×109 and 4×107 CFU, produced in the research laboratory of the Peasant (Farmer) Farm «Evgeniy Pavlovich Tsirulev», was administered in freeze-dried form to two-month-old goats every day for a month. The animals' bodies developed stably and the studied vital parameters were within physiologically determined limits. Adding the probiotic Bacillus amyloliquefaciens to the main diet made it possible to activate metabolic reactions in the body due to the vital activity of beneficial microflora. The use of a probiotic in animals led to a more rapid restoration of vital microflora, which ensured the leveling of the effect and displacement of pathogenic strains of Escherichia coli from the animal’s body. The administration of a probiotic leads to an increase in the adaptive and productive indicators of small cattle.
