The aim of the experiment was to monitor the effect of propolis extract on selected parameters of mineral profile (calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, sodium, chlorides) of Hubbard JV chickens. Chickens were divided into five groups (C, control; E1 – E4, experimental groups). Experimental chickens (n=10 in each group) received propolis in feed mixture in various doses as follows: E1 – 150 mg per kg; E2 – 450 mg per kg; E3 – 600 mg per kg; E4 – 800 mg per kg. Feeding period lasted 42 days. Propolis preparation caused a significant (P less than 0.05) decrease of serum phosphorus and magnesium content. Other parameters were not influenced (P great than 0.05) after propolis treatment.
