description Saltose is one of the biological feed additives used for controlling coccidia and clostridia inthe broiler, this study was aimed to evaluate its use on productivity and profitability in commercialcircumstances.A total of 60 thousand one day old Ross 308 chicks, were divided randomly intotwo groups, each consisting of 6 replicates distributed in 3 Commercial Closed chicken Housesthat belonged to medium size company in Saudi Arabia. Each replicate contains 5,000 bird andeach house contains 4 replicants, 2 replicants of them for each group. In group A, the chicks werefed on a commercial control diet, group B was fed on the same diet enriched with 0.5 gm Saltose/kg feed with two stages. Data were collected weekly during the experimental period for 35 days;broiler performance (feed intake (FI), body weight gain (BWG) and feed conversion ratio (FCR)),mortality rate, organs weight, dressing and feed cost per kilogram weight gain were estimated.Theresults showed that supplementation of Saltose to broiler diets caused a numerical improvement(P>0.05) in the mortality, broiler performance, organs weight and dressing through 1-21 day and22-35 day, but these improvement effects reached to significant degree (P<0.05) only with bodyweight gain (BWG), feed conversion ratio (FCR), Furthermore adding "Saltose" caused Lowerfeed cost per kilogram weight gain than Control group by 7.25%. It was concluded that the use of"saltose" as feed additives in commercial broiler diets has productive and economic benefits infield circumstances.
