YB Rearing........

When the youngsters had been parted i would then start to use the baby milk powder though out the season with honey and lemon in the water

This is where me and Kev might differ, he uses a mixture that contains lots of homoform and the birds are always covered in red dye from the mix. I perfer to make my own mixes, without the red dye. One thing that we do agree on is the peanuts, wheatgerm oil and baby milk.

i think i will be using hormoform this year for the first time, never used it before but heard a lot of good reports about it..........

see if it makes any difference.

Kev swears by it. I can't say anything bad about it. I just sometimes use it as a conditioner and add small amounts to my mix when I feel the need.

my best yb racer this season was reared on hormoform, dont know if it was anything to do with it but ill give it a go this season and see.........

never used holmaform because my dad said it was to much money, but the people i know who us it say great things about it
