In order to find out the effect of supplementation on growth performance in Murrah buffalo calves twenty four Murrah buffalo calves of about six months age were randomly divided into four groups of six calves each on the basis of body weight (BW) in a completely randomized design (CRD). Group I was set as control (C), Group-II was supplemented with multi-strain probiotic containing 7 bacterial strains and 2 yeast strains (2×109cfu/gm) at 5gm/calf/day (T1). Group-III was supplemented with prebiotic Mannonoligosaccharide + inulin at 5gm/calf/day (T2) and Group-IV was supplemented with synbiotic containing multi-strain probiotic at 2.5gm and 2.5gms of prebiotic Mannonoligosaccharide + inulin per calf/day (T3) for a period of 90 days. The present study concludes that synbiotics supplementation(T3) in buffalo calves had increased DMI, average daily gain and FCR which resulted into decreased cost of feeding per kg weight gain (₹) in buffalo calves compared to either prebiotic or probiotic supplementation alone.
