Abstract

Animal feeds and drinks containing small amounts of compounds of the formula Ia or Ib ##STR1## where R.sup.1 is hydrogen, low molecular weight alkyl or alkoxy, or halogen, R.sup.2 is hydrogen or low molecular weight alkyl and R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are hydrogen or a low molecular weight aliphatic or araliphatic radical. The compounds of the formulae Ia and Ib promote growth without exerting an antibiotic action.
