Research of the peculiar features of correlation parameter of production indices of 870 mongrel inbred sheep with the various inbreeding coefficients was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. In course of study there was stated the one-sided influence of inbreeding on phenotypic indices of pair, individual and cumulative pair correlation genetic correlations of sheep productivity. The majority of them were the statistically authentic values with P less than 0,1 - 0,001. It was stated that coefficient variability of genetic correlation of wool productivity rendered influence on sheep inbreeding degree among which there were marked off animal units with inbreeding in degree of consanguinity with the coefficients of higher statistical confidence (with P less than 0,01 - 0,001) than animal units with degrees of close or low relationship and outbred animal units - (P less than 0,1 - 0,01). The majority of ewe productive quality correlation factors with a different inbreeding degree proved to be positive and authentic and could be used for an estimation of correlations between traits in selection process for population perfection

Balanced complete feeding proved to be one of the major conditions of animal productivity increase and improvement of their reproductive qualities. Full value of feeding could be obtained at the expense of forage quality improvement and perfection of structure of the rations providing the increasing of metabolic energy use by breeding bull-calves. Analysis of the efficiency of metabolic energy use by the replacement bull calves under conditions of various sugar and protein ratio was realized in the Republic of Belarus. Research results showed that enrichment of replacement bull calves (with 325-405 kg of live weight) rations with easy digestible carbohydrates (sugar and starch) in ratio of 32% from a dry matter ration, including 15% of stable starch made it possible to increase the transformation of metabolic energy into energy of body weight gain on 21,73 - 23,96 MJ or on 10,3%, that as a result correspondingly increased the daily average weight gains on 7,9% and reduced the expenses for forage energy for 7,1% counting on an energy unit. According to the ejaculate volume indices the bull calves of the second experimental group surpassed analogues of a control group on 14,8%, and according to sperm concentration indices - on 12%. The average quantity of the frozen doses of sperm has made 65%

Studying of influence of various levels of selenium on growth, protein structure of blood serum, natural resistance, and reproductive performance of pedigree bull-calves was realized in the conditions of the Republic of Belarus. It was established, that feeding with an optimum dose of selenium (0,4 mg per 1 kg of dry matter) in rations of replacement bull-calves during the raising period promoted the increasing of daily average weight gain on 6,8%, indexes of natural resistance - on 0,5-13,9%, and sperm production quality - on 4,5-27,3%. In the conditions of optimization of selenium level of in diets the protein structure of blood serum of replacement bull-calves exceeded the similar index at control animals by the crude protein index - on 8,3 (Р less than 0,05), by albumine and alpha globulin -on 2,2% and 1,6%, respectively. Application of selenium in dose of 0,4 mg per 1 kg of dry matter made it possible to increase the indexes of natural resistance on 0,5-13,9%. Increase of selenium dose up to 0,4 mg per 1 kg of dry matter in made it possible to increase the quantity and quality of sperm of bull-calves, that was proved by the increasing of ejaculate volume on 4,5%, concentration of male germ cells in ejaculate – on 15,7% (Р less than 0,05) and male germ cells activity - on 7,3% (Р less than 0,001)
