Popis: The experiment aimed to investigate the effects of probiotic (Bacillus subtilis KMP-BCP-1 and Bacillus licheniformis KMP-9) supplementation on growth performance, ileal digestibility, jejunal histomorphology, colonic ammonia-nitrogen (NH3-N) and blood parameters in broiler chickens. A total of 288, one-day-old female Ross-308 broilers were randomly allotted into 4 treatments with 6 replicates of 12 birds. Treatments were (T1) basal diet (BD), (T2) BD with 200 ppm amoxicillin, (T3) and (T4) BD with probiotics at the levels of 2.5 × 107 and 5.0 × 107 cfu/kg feed, respectively. Supplementation of amoxicillin or probiotics improved (P
