Have no doubt with your experience Hal they will perform well.

It is nice to have good looking as well as good performer and even better if you have both in one.

Could not look in better condition.

What deep litter are you using ?.

Regards.

Softwood shavings and diatamacous earth. Thanks for the kind comments. They have had open loft all summer. Good immune system. Cabbage leaf or lettuce every few days now. I like the look of them because they have performed. Not the yearlings though, did not fly young this year, but genetically the same birds. They will be well tried this year. Have given many away, whites also that did not perform as well as the ones kept. Kids love whites! Maybe future racer fanciers?

No, no no

you got that all wrong Hal Wink

I'm

I suggest

as you maybe forgot to mention bounce

somehow, the final ingredient in your mix Wink

being all the corn there scattered within Smile

. End of the day thou I suspect Wink

matters little, as many would just love to have their birds looking as healthy & as well as yours do there Smile

.

& take care.

Oh yes the corn! Wild birds get it weekly. Plus the wild pigeons. Actually they eat a lot of it when weather gets 20 below etc,.
