Abstract. The results of studies on the influence of different dosages of the complex mineral feed additive ToxiNon on the quality indicators of laying hen eggs from the industrial herd of the Hisex Brown cross are presented. The studies were conducted in the conditions of Bogotolsk Poultry Farm LLC, Krasnoyarsk  Territory,  on  four groups of chickens (control and three experimental) at the age of 21 weeks, 50 birds in each group. The duration of the experiment was 133 days. The birds of the experimental groups, in contrast to the control group, were given the feed additive ToxiNon in the diet in dosages of 0.15; 0.25; 0.35% by weight of the feed mixture. As a result of the research, it was found that the dosage of the additive 0.25% of the weight of the feed mixture had the most positive effect on the quality of chicken eggs: compared with analogues in the control group, the average egg weight increased by 2.9%, yolk weight – by 3.6%, shell weight - by 8.0%, shell thickness – by 3.7%, yolk index – by 0.9 percentage points, and feed costs per 10 eggs decreased by 7.3%, per 1 kg of egg mass – by 9.2%.

Keywords: laying hens, egg quality, feed additive ToxiNon, natural minerals, diet, Hisex brown, egg weight, shell thickness, yolk index, white index

Acknowledgments: participation in “Modern technologies in feed production, feeding of highly productive poultry crosses, control of the safety and quality of compound feeds, premixes, dietary supplements” was supported by the Krasnoyarsk Regional Fund for the Support of Scientific and Scientific-Technical Activities (application code: 2022052308705).
