Abstract
The studies were carried out at the Saltykovsky Breeding State Farm JSC in 2019 on male
slaughter young minks of the Standard Black breed.
According to the research results, it was found that the addition of the drug "Vitazar" on an oil
basis at a dose of 3,0 ml per head per day does not have a negative effect on male minks and contributes
to an increase in live weight by 127 g, size by 60,6 cm2, quality of skin products (the share
of defect-free skins by 8%, the number of especially large skins A by 26%) and quality offset by 4%.
In animals receiving the drug at a dose of 3,0 ml per head per day, there was a higher level of
body weight and chest girth behind the shoulder blades during slaughter with a significant difference
(P> 0,99).
