	Control	AFB₁^a	C. funkei^c	AFB₁ + C. funkei
week 0 BW, g	119.3 ± 1.3	118.8 ± 1.0	118.5 ± 0.6	118.8 ± 0.5
week 1 BW, g	372.5 ± 30.0^a	309.4 ± 7.0^c	364.7 ± 16.2^a	336.6 ± 16.4^b
week 2 BW, g	786.9 ± 61.2^a	458.5 ± 61.7^b	858.8 ± 42.6^a	527.8 ± 63.3^b
week 2 BW gain, g/day	47.7 ± 4.3^a	24.3 ± 4.4^b	52.9 ± 3.0^a	29.2 ± 4.5^b
week 2 feed intake, g/day	89.7 ± 9.0^a	55.5 ± 5.7^b	90.3 ± 3.1^a	55.1 ± 7.8^b
week 2 feed/gain, g/g	1.88 ± 0.04^b	2.32 ± 0.25^a	1.71 ± 0.03^c	1.89 ± 0.16^b

Values are expressed as means ± SD (n = 5), and means with different superscript letters differ (P < 0.05).

Each duckling oral administrated 100 μg AFB₁/kg BW per day.

Each duckling oral administrated C. funkei at 10⁸ cfu/per day.
