Poultry is one of fastest growing segments of agriculture sector in India. Feed additive are
important materials that can improve the efficiency of feed utilization, animal performance
and enhance immune response. At present numbers of feed additives are used to feed broiler
birds for the purpose of increase in body weight gain and improve feed efficiency (FCR).
However, availability of quality feed at the reasonable cost is a key to successful poultry
operation (Basak et al. 2002). Black cumin seed (Nigella sativa) is called as black seed, kala
jira or kalongiis an annual herbaceous flowering of Ranunculaceae family and native to

Northern Africa, Far East and Asia for the treatment of asthma and as an antitumor agent.
Black cumin seed have been used in traditional medicine as diuretic and antihypertensive,
digestive and appetite stimulant; also have antibacterial, antioxidant, antidibetic, anticancer,
antiparasitic, analgesic, renal protective and anti-inflammatory properties due to presence of
pharmacologically active compound like thymoquinone, dithymoquinone thymohydroquinone
and thymol (Guler et al., 2006). Garlic (Allium sativum) which belongs to the family
