| Black minerals I would say one of the most commonly used products throughout UK lofts, probably more lofts use these than don't, especially when breeding. |

Been around since I was a kid, nearly every fancier used it, think first time black minerals were commercial, although fanciers also used coal dust. Loooking back some 80 years is maybe a bit too far but cannot remember not being able to get them. Know latterly I bought the minerals seperately in larger quatities. Regards.

| Qualz is found in all pigeons. Whether just in loft or out. Very much needed.... but how they get is seems a mystery. |
