INTRODUCTION Poultry farming is one of the key areas of business activity in the structure of agriculture. This is a science-intensive and dynamically developing industry with an annual world production growth rate of 6-9% [1, 2]. In the Russian Federation, along with the significant successes in poultry farming, there is an annual increase in the volume of waste generation of poultry enterprises that now make up more than 17 million tons per year [3, 4]. Waste of evisceration and poultry keeping is the most promising from the point of view of useful utilization and the creation of non-waste technologies. As for the chemical composition - the content of amino acids, the balance of micro and macro elements - feather-down raw materials, litter and other types of waste are a valuable source of nutrients in the production of feed supplements [5, 6]. Table 1 presents the chemical composition of feather-down raw materials. Table 2 presents the amino acid composition of feather-down raw materials in comparison with a human hair, a horse hair and sheep wool.

Such methods often lead to the loss and racemization of essential amino acids, the formation of cyclopeptides and a significant decrease in the total biological value of the final feed products [7]. High-temperature drying or incineration is used in the technologies for useful litter disposal, which leads to a loss of more than 40% of nutrients. Sometimes formaldehyde is used to disinfect litter, but it also significantly reduces the nutritional and protein value of the feed produced [8, 9]. The analysis of the technologies used shows that the processing industry have some tasks of developing new modern environmentally friendly technologies for recycling waste from poultry enterprises, which allows, at high economic efficiency values, to produce feed, feed supplements and other technical products with improved characteristics. A principally new approach of this trend is the creation of the bioconversion technologies based on the use of effective systems of destroying microorganisms [10, 11]. Such microorganisms are able to synthesize enzymes and enzyme complexes into the environment and provide the process of conversion of complex organic compounds that are part of waste into available forms. A unique feature of such strains is the ability to suppress the growth and development of pathogenic microflora of waste [11]. Thus, the study aimed at improving the biotechnological methods for recycling poultry wastes and developing a technology for producing a feed supplement from them is a relevant task, the solution of which is directed both at deep processing and the complete neutralization of waste. STUDY OBJECTS AND METHODS The object of the studies was a feed supplement from a mixture of feather-down raw materials and litter from Lohmann Brown chickens. The paper aimed at estimating the quality and effectiveness of the developed feed supplement based on a mixture of poultry waste (chicken feather : litter) in feeding Hubbard broiler chickens. Study of the feed supplement indicators. The process of utilization of mixtures of feather-down waste and litter was conducted under laboratory conditions as follows: the ground waste mixture was fed to a BioStat A plus bioreactor, 5 dm3 in volume, and treated with an active culture of destroying microorganisms: Bacillus pumilus SAFR-032, Microbacterium terregens AC1180, Bacillus fastidiosus B11090, Arthrobacter globiformis AC1529, Streptomyces olivocinereus AC1169, Acinetobacter sp. B3905, which were in a nutrient medium (in the ratio of nutrient medium: microorganisms - 15 : 1). The bioconversion process begins immediately after the application of microorganisms and lasts for 72 hours. Upon completion, the microorganisms must be inactivated. The parameters of inactivation have been selected taking into account the cessation of the effect of extracellular enzymes of microorganisms on the substrate and the termination of the processes of division of the microorganisms themselves. After inactivation, the resulting enzymatic hydrolysis product is filtered using a filter with a mesh size from 1 to 0.5 mm to separate the coarse fraction. The drying stage is feeding the spray dryer, the excess moisture is removed and the resulting feed supplement takes on a powdery form. The following stages include prepackaging and packaging the supplement. For comparison, the samples of unprocessed waste mixtures are taken as the control samples: the chemical composition of the feed supplement was studied in accordance with GOST 17681-82 "Flour of animal origin.

In the course of the studies of zootechnical indices of the developed feed supplement for Hubbard broiler chickens, a supplement was added to the mixed feeds for the chickens of the control and experimental group (the number of birds is 45). The groups have been formed from day-old broiler chickens using a method of analogues. The stocking density, the light and temperature conditions are in accordance with the existing recommendations. The groups were fed with crumbled mixed feeds with the application of a feed supplement in the premixes, in full.

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The quality of the feed supplement produced and the optimum ratio of substrate components (feather- down waste : litter) was estimated using the chemical and amino acid composition and biological value. The safety of the feed supplement was estimated using the microbiological indicators, toxicity, pesticide and radionuclide content, acid and peroxide number. Tables 3 and 4 present the results of the study of the chemical and amino acid composition of the feed supplement. Table 4.

Table 3. Chemical composition of the feed supplement* The study used the ratios of the substrates of feather-down waste: litter of 0 : 1; 2 : 8; 5 : 5; 8 : 2 and 1 : 0 respectively. Analyzing the data presented in Tables 3 and 4, it can be concluded that the studied feed supplements, with a share of feather-down waste of more than 80%, differ in a balanced amino acid composition, a high content of protein (89.9-90.2%) and sulfur-containing amino acids, that is cystine and tryptophan that have a high value in the process of fattening the bird. The highest content of these amino acids was noted in the cases of the experiment using the waste ratios in the shares of 8 : 2 and 1 : 0. The ratio of 8 : 2 is recognized rational and optimal for a further use as the feed supplement produced using this method contains glycine, the most important amino acid for chickens, and is characterized by a high content of calcium and phosphorus due to the components of litter. Table 5 presents the results of the study of the safety indices of the feed supplement. It can be seen from Table 5 that all the obtained indicators to determine do not exceed the established standards, which indicates the high quality and safety of the raw materials studied. When estimating the toxicity of the feed supplement using the test organism Tetrahymena pyriformis, no adverse effect on the survival, mobility, growth and behavior of the cells was detected. The morphological indicators were also normal, which indicates the absence of toxicity. When analyzing the relative biological value of the feed supplement using Tetrahymena pyriformis, it has been established that the average number of the cells of Tetrahymena pyriformis grown with the use of the feed supplement is (8.9 ± 0.9) × 104, which indicates its high nutritional value. Taking into account the results of the studies on the chemical and amino acid composition of the feed supplement, the data of microbiological and toxicological studies, and taking into account the toxicity estimation, it can be concluded that the studied supplement is safe and can be used in the birds diet. The genetic features, sex, age and physiological condition of poultry, keeping conditions, as well as taste and the structure of feeds and feed supplements determine the level of consumption for poultry. When estimating the effectiveness of the feed supplement, an additive was applied to mixed feeds and feed mixtures at a dosage of 100 g/100 kg of feed for Hubbard chickens.

Table 6 presents the studies of consumption of the feed supplement by broiler chickens. According to the data presented in Table 6, it can be concluded that the feed consumption at the first stage is at the same level in all the groups. This is explained by the identity of mixed feed during the starting period. At the second stage, the difference was 29 g for the first control sample and 14 g for the second. During the finishing period, the difference increased to 84.8 and 8 g respectively. Thus, we can talk about an increase in feed consumption by broiler chickens when the developed supplement is included in mixed feeds. The livability of the bird is one of the most important indicators, which is characterized by the ratio of the final number of birds to the initial. Table 7 provides the results of the analysis of poultry livability. Analyzing the data it can be said that the livability of broiler chickens was high and amounted to 100% for the experimental sample, and this indicator was 97.7% at the end of the finishing period for the control ones. However, the analysis of cases of a decrease in livability showed that it was not due to the effect of diets in the control groups. The use of the feed supplement does not adversely affect the livability of broiler chickens. Table 8 presents the results of determining the live weight of broiler chickens. Table 7.

In the experimental group, the live weight was 1230 g, which is almost 3% higher than that in the control groups. In the finishing period, the difference will increase to 4.5%. Thus, the use of feed supplements has a beneficial effect on the live weight of broiler chickens and contributes to its increase. Feed conversion is an important indicator of its quality and nutrient utilization efficiency. This is a coefficient that shows the ratio of the amount of feed expended to the unit of output. Table 9 presents the costs of mixed feed per unit of output. Based on the obtained data, it was found that the feed conversion rate in the experimental group was 1.66%, which is lower than the values for the control groups. The feed costs in the experimental group correspond to the zootechnical norms. The best digestibility of nutrients contributed to an increase in the live weight of broiler chickens. The indicators of meat of broiler chickens were estimated by such parameters as the chemical and amino acid composition, the content of minerals and vitamins and a biological value. Table 10 presents the chemical composition of meat of broiler chickens, in particular the pectoral and femoral muscles. The analysis of the chemical composition of the muscular tissue of broiler chickens has shown that the addition of mixed feed with a developed feed supplement to the diet has a positive effect on the composition of the muscle tissue - a high protein content, a decrease in the percentage of fat, and hence the improved quality of meat. It should be noted that the total protein and fat content in meat is not sufficient for a full description of its nutritional value. Together with the essential amino acids that are part of complete proteins, there are incomplete proteins in the meat of broiler chickens. Thus, for the most complete estimation of nutritional value, the amino acid composition of the pectoral muscles was analyzed, the results of the analysis are presented in Table 11. Table 10.

When analyzing the composition of amino acids of broiler chickens meat, it was found that there are more amino acids in the pectoral muscles than in the femoral muscles. It was noted that the difference in total of all amino acids in the pectoral muscles in the experimental group was 0.202% and 0.271% in comparison with the control groups. The highest amino acid content was noted in the femoral muscle protein of the experimental group, it exceeded the value of the first control group by 0.158% and the second group by 0.101%. Such an excess was mainly due to the essential amino acids of femoral muscles. In the human body, vitamins are not synthesized and must be supplied with food. Table 12 presents the content of vitamins in meat. In accordance with the analysis of the data on the determination of the content of vitamins in the meat of broiler chickens, it has been established that the maximum amount of vitamins was in the meat of the experimental group that consumed mixed feeds with a feed supplement. The content of vitamin A and B12 in the pectoral muscles exceeded their content in the femoral muscles. The femoral muscles had a high content of vitamin B1. Another important indicator of meat quality is the content of minerals. Along with proteins, fats and carbohydrates, they are a vital component of human nutrition (Table 13). The data presented in Table 13 show that the accumulation of micro elements was the most complete in the femoral muscles. In general, a higher accumulation of microelements is noted in the experimental group. The accumulation of calcium is on average higher by 20% in the experimental group than that in the control groups. The difference in phosphorus accumulation was more than 5% in the pectoral and more than 10% in the femoral muscles. The accumulation of iron and manganese have not shown a significant difference between the groups. Table 12.
