HOW DO YOU FEED ...
during the journey:
In 2025, all racing pigeons were fed with Power-Mix, supplemented with 20% Fitness and a portion of BergerPearls No.1. Towards the end of the week and on longer distances, the Fitness portion was gradually reduced. On the day of deployment, on the flight day, and the day before deployment, my pigeons no longer received Fitness. For regeneration after the flights, the pigeons additionally received seeds.
during breeding and molting:
Since 2025, I have been using a combination of 50% Zucht + Mauser Premium and 50% Zucht + Mauser Sonderklasse. Additionally, minerals are regularly provided, and as soon as young ones are in the nest, I increase the feed amount daily as needed. To support vitality and regeneration, I regularly supplement the feed mixture alternately with VitalDrink + RecoverAmin Forte and VitalDrink + SymBiotic.
Your young pigeons:
After weaning, I initially continue to feed the young ones with Zucht + Mauser Premium. After four to six weeks, I then mix in about 20 % Fitness. The young pigeons are darkened, and as soon as the small feathers have molted, but at the latest by the end of the darkening, I switch to a mixture of 50 % Fitness and 50 % Power-Mix. During the travel season, I feed the young ones exactly the same as the older ones.
YOUR TIP FOR NEW BREEDERS:
"Form beats class" and therefore everyone should first do everything to achieve a good loft environment.
