This study was carried out at Sheep Section of\nShami Camel Research Station, Damascus, Syria in 2012. Thirty Awassi lambs homogenous in terms of age\n(142.7\u00b110.69 day) and weight (28.3\u00b11.67 kg) were selected to determine the\neffect of adding probiotic (EMOTIC) on some productive parameters. The lambs\nwere randomly divided into five groups. All housing and management conditions\nwere similar for all animals throughout experiment period (91 days). The first\ngroup T (control), first experimental group T1<\/sub> and second\nexperimental T2<\/sub> were fed on basic ration (85.8% concentrate and\n14.2% wheat straw on dry matter (DM) basis), while T3<\/sub> and T4<\/sub>\nwere fed with another rate (79% concentrate and 21% wheat straw on DM basis).\nAll experimental groups were supplemented with probiotic at levels of\n2g\/head\/day for T1<\/sub> and T3<\/sub>, and 3g\/head\/day for T2<\/sub>\nand T4<\/sub>. The results showed that the total weight gain TWG of lambs\nof T1<\/sub>, T2<\/sub>, T3<\/sub> and T4<\/sub> were\n(23.17\u00b10.78, 23.58\u00b10.84, 21.52\u00b10.34 and 22.4\u00b10.67) respectively. The TWG values\nwere significantly higher (P \u2264 0.05) than that of T\n(17.87\u00b11.06 ). No significant differences in dry matter\nintake. The feed conversion ratio FCR was the lowest in T2<\/sub> (5.33\u00b10.43) and it was lower (P \u2264 0.05) in all\nexperimental groups in comparison with T. The cost of feed for each kg body\nweight gain values were lower in the fourth experimental groups by 17.5, 16.21,\n11.8 and 12.41% respectively vs T. The gain of each sold lamb was .high in all\nexperimental groups vs control, and it was the highest in T2<\/sub> (1948\nSP) which, was higher than T by 87.74%. It could be concluded that using Emotic\nas probiotic at level of 3 g\/head\/day had high body gain and low feed\nconversion, in addition to better economic efficiency, while the level 2\ng\/head\/day had the lowest feeding cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
