Pigeon Diets

Another pigeon. This time it is thursty and su...Image via Wikipedia
First of all: why we need to eat? Essentially maintain our health, along with the power and energy. If we don't eat we become weak. If we eat we become large over, lazy. Therefore this pigeon what should eat too much. How we feed, we feed depend to a large extent why we maintain a pigeon. Similar to how nutrition athletes may be different than a low normal people. Ions that are preserved for performance will need to be entered in a different way. ? standard ions is 1-1 1/z oz per feed. It is recommended to feed 2/3 evenings and 1/3 in the morning. For people flying pigeon thier quantities and times vary. However for all pigeon fanciers pigeons eat most of the standard of grains, legumes, cereals and more. They even may take some fresh vegetables. However you must provide the primary material to all 4 is a pigeon. Entry 1: popular grains are wheat, barley, corn, peas, Dari, linseed, safflower, etc. There is a balanced nutrition. 2 grit 3 minerals & vitamins 4 water of certain grains will on others. Certain periods of the year they will need a specific type and quantity of the food are raised, racing, molting, displaying, etc. What entered the pigeon depends on a lot of why pigeons are retained. You will see the town centers  nearly pigeons that eat something. Even in chips. What is important is to provide a balanced diet, with the desired minerals and plenty of clean water. As a rule always feed the pigeons from the container, never on the floor or wax like seeds may absorb germs capable. Its important to feed is clean, in good order. Its said that we become what we eat, and healthy is good is important. To understand the techniques we have feeding performance then understanding of carbohydrates, proteins, fats.

(Part 5 of 6) Building Consistency – The “ ” Race Smash

Building Consistency in Racing Pigeons - The Smash Race

When a race with the Club on a regular basis will be the race smash sooner or later. This is a race where many ions are lost. It must be due to bad weather, go down hauler, allow strange location behind the mountains or just the odd circumstances, perhaps even attacks a Falcon. This is really learn something about the doves you are working with. You may lose some of them faster. I lost the birds who built themselves a good reputation as a young birds only to lose the race smash.
Some of the "perceived to be" lesser birds that hang in the top 20% in the first place may show themselves to be the sharpest ions and difficult group.
In 2008 I was sent a challenge ACE pigeon of the world, classic Las Vegas, flew them locally. I'm captive bred animals three brothers from one pair that flew in all three. One flew up into the local; One flew the WAC and Vegas. One in WAC placed 12th of 300 kilometres. He also laid the 60th in 400 I believe. He never won the top honor, but always had one plus only 160 pigeons had left at the end of the competition. I had them sent him home. Other brother flew Vegas, the results were similar. His last flew up into local and to my surprise the same results. Sent to the brothers follow all three, the results were similar. It was a good lesson, well worth the price of admission.
It takes a good ions to win, plain and simple. I flew up into the youngest brother of old birds locally. He was the first behind his trap, a hen, and loft of Honourable Baahrim also.
The next race was 500. Hauler broke at miles 400 and released the birds on the side of a highway. They were behind the leg 16,000 named elevation mountain in Colorado. Many members of the Club were a caller wants to know if I received all the pigeons as race smash. I was worried because I'm not flown in 300 due to schedule work my pigeons was that much since the young birds, in fact, I had no time to train them in the road at all. Outside the pigeon 8 I received back four. First home at a respectable third brother was.
After talking to the guys at our everyone were heavy losses with some guys getting there without repetition. This is something to consider leaving the row of pigeons, toughness, good handle on intuition.
He was a champion in individual pen breeding Loft for several months. I sent her. She was the first race of the season, 400. She came in second. One winner diploma fast vtrngolt ACE national never made it back. Therefore, a good speed, but that's not all.
After all the most important materials that are built into the family is a matter of keeping improving it.

Build consistency – pretzel cultivated (part 3 of 6)

Once we have a few proven champions we keep the parents and discard all of the other breeders that did not make the cut. Culling the stock loft is more important than culling the flyers. The flyers will cull themselves but you and you alone are responsible for what goes in the stock loft.
When you have several proven champions from the air you will want to try them at breeding. There are countless methods of breeding but none have ever out matched the pretzel breeding method. I ran across it by accident really. When I was a boy my father and grandfather advised against breeding too close. There was a lot of apprehension associated with breeding close relatives. Since then I have bred them very close and tried every kind of mating you can imagine and using the very best of stock. Having tried inbreeding, line breeding and just plain old out crossing I can tell you, the best method has proven itself over and over again to be the pretzel breeding method.
The Pretzel breeding method is simply trying to keep your best three or four pigeons blood at the forefront of your breeding program in heavy concentration without breeding brother/sister or mother/son or father daughter mating. It is geared toward mating uncle / niece or aunt / nephew or cousins. Double cousins is a favorite of mine. It is not good enough to just mate double cousins and expect excellent results. They must be all proven pigeons and this takes time. They have to be flown out to prove themselves worthy of a shot in the breeding loft. Then they must prove themselves as stock birds. They must reproduce as good as themselves or better and in good percentages.
