In turn, dietary fatty acids are known to influence the gut microbiota. The current preliminary study investigated effects of a maternal fatty acid supplementation (MFAS) during transition period with coconut oil (CON, control), CLA (Lutalin\u00ae), or CLA + EFA (Lutalin\u00ae + essential fatty acids\u2013linseed oil; safflower oil) on physico-chemical characteristics of jejunal content and microbiota of 5-day-old calves. MFAS of CLA + EFA increased \u03b1-linolenic, eicosapentaenoic, docosapentaenoic, and n-3 fatty acid proportions in jejunum compared to the other groups (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.05). Proportions of n-6 and polyunsaturated fatty acids increased by MFAS of CLA + EFA compared to CON (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.05). Most abundant phyla in the jejunum were <jats:italic>Proteobacteria, Firmicutes<\/jats:italic>, and <jats:italic>Bacteroidota<\/jats:italic>. CLA + EFA decreased the relative abundance of <jats:italic>Diplorickettsiales<\/jats:italic> (<jats:italic>Proteobacteria<\/jats:italic>) compared to CON and CLA (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.05). CLA calves showed a lower abundance of <jats:italic>Enterobacterales<\/jats:italic> (<jats:italic>Proteobacteria<\/jats:italic>) compared to CON calves (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> = 0.001). The abundance of <jats:italic>Veillonellales-Selenomonadales<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>RF39<\/jats:italic> (<jats:italic>Firmicutes<\/jats:italic>) decreased in CLA + EFA calves compared to CON calves (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.05). <jats:italic>Bacteroidales<\/jats:italic> (<jats:italic>Bacteroidota<\/jats:italic>) decreased in CLA + EFA calves compared to CLA calves (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.05). The relative abundance of <jats:italic>Cyanobacteria<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>Euryarchaeota<\/jats:italic> decreased and the abundance of <jats:italic>Chloroflexi<\/jats:italic> increased in CLA + EFA calves compared to CON and CLA calves (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &amp;lt; 0.05). MFAS alters the fatty acid composition and microbial milieu in the intestinal content of neonatal calves due to their ability to modulate colostral fatty acid composition of
