The aim of this study focused on examining the effects of garlic supplement in broiler feed on the production parameters and health status. At the start of the fattening period there were formed three groups of 37 one-day-old Ross 308 hybrid broilers of the same weight in five repetitions. Treatment groups were given: 1.5% commercial garlic in group 2 and 3% in group 3. At the end of the experiment which lasted 42 days it was found that the addition of garlic led to a not significant increase of body mass in group 2 (2257.47 g) in comparison to the control group (2250.26 g), while it recorded depressive effect in group 3 (2229.39 g) in comparioson to the control group. A feed conversion ratio (FCR) was better in groups with addition of garlic, and the best FCR were in group 2 (1.83).
