A research study was conducted at Poultry Research unit of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Agricultural University Peshawar, Pakistan to explore the effect of different levels of water based mixture infusion of Allium sativum and Withania somnifera on overall performance of broiler chicks. For this purpose 120 day old chicks were divided into four groups designated as A, B, C and D with three replicate having 10 chicks each. All chicks were reared in separate pens for 35 days in an open sided house. Group A was kept control while chicks in group B, C and D received water based infusion at rate of 5, 7.5 and 10 ml/L of drinking water respectively. Mean feed intake, water intake and weight gain was found significantly higher (P less than 0.05) with better feed conversion ratio (FCR) in group C and D. Significantly higher dressing percentage was recorded in group D as compared to all other groups. It is concluded that water based infusion of Withania sominefera and Allium sativum in 1:6 ratio mixture at the rate of 10 ml/L of water improved the overall performance of broiler chicks.
