Description A complete, pelleted diet for pigeons. Also contains vitamins and minerals. The pellets keep pigeons from sorting through grain and wasting feed. No grain needs to be added. Can be fed to racing breeds, heavy breeds and squabs. For maintenance (after breeding season to 30-40 days before breeding) â Feed what the pigeons will consume within 20 minutes during a morning and night feeding period. Do not leave extra feed around. For breeders (40 days before and during breeding season) â Feed free-choice but limit to one 20 minute period daily if birds become too heavy. Supplemental calcium may be offered free choice to heavy breeds if stronger shells are desirable.
