This study was aimed to investigate the effect of Ocimum sanctum and Tinospora crispa supplemented on growth performance, feed intake, feed efficiency and feed cost in commercial broilers. One hundred and fifty day old Arbor Acres chickens of mixed sex were randomly sampled in a completely randomized design with 5 treatments and 3 replications, ten chickens per replication. All chickens were fed by commercial diet which was supplemented with various levels of Ocimum sanctum at 1%, 1%, 0.5% and 0.5% of completed feed, respectively, and Supplemented with Tinospora crispa Treatment 1 was a control group. Treatment 2, 3, 4 and 5 were supplemented with Ocimum sanctum and Tinospora crispa at 0.4 %, 0.2%, 0.4%, and 0.2% of completed feed, respectively. The experimental period was 42 days. The results showed that supplementation with Ocimum sanctum and Tinospora crispa had no significance effect (P>0.05) on growth rate and feed intake of broilers. However, supplementation with Ocimum sanctum and Tinospora crispa affected feed conversion efficiency and feed cost. Treatment 2 showed the best feed conversion efficiency (1.56). and the highest feed cost (72.43 Bath),Treatment 1 has the lowest feed cost (53.26 Bath).
