The aim of this experiment was to observe the effect of the combination of probiotics and essential oils on the production of broilers and microbiological properties in the conditions of welfare. The experiment was carried out on broiler type Cobb 500. The welfare and the body weight of broiler chickens were evaluated at the end of the experiment. The average body weight of broiler chickens at the end of the experiment in the control group was 1567.2 g. while in trial group (feedstuff enriched with combination of 0, 05 % Origanum aetheroleum - essential oil and 0, 10 % probiotics – Enterococcus faecium CECT 4515) was 1607.20 g. The differences between trial group and control group were not highly significant (P0.05). Samples of caecal chime were obtained and the number of Enterococcus sp. from 5.03 to 6.25 log cfu.g-1, the number of Lactobacillus sp. from 6.12 to 6.67 log cfu.g-1, and the number of Enterobacteriaceae sp. from 6.57 to 7.25 log cfu.g-1 was determined.
