We have a few High Energy Mix here { Super Mix} as i call it ; but in the end we decided to mix our own as its only the last 2 & half feeds in the week that we feed it ;the other advantage was we could check each of the grain's first before mixing it so having a qauility controll with the grain being used; ;compared to buying it already mixed with maybe a substanted grain that had been put in ; also out here none had brown rice or Peanuts in them ; & the one thing with Peanuts we try & use Fresh ones that have not gone off ;

Mark that is the Matadour type of feeding system

But there is nothing wrong with feeding heavy but training hard your birds need the fuel to fly

Most of it Mark Smile Smile is just spin & bling by the big pigeon manufacturors of pigeon feed from my perspective. Millions has been spent trying to find that one magic mix Rolling Eyes Rolling Eyes that will part ones money from ones pocket etc for their benefit. Reminds me somewhat lol! lol! lol! of eyesign Wink Wink one could keep going around & around in circles forever Smile Smile & be none the wiser. I would suspect/know many living in the back blocks as such who do not have the temptation of a bag with a pigeon on it  Wink  Wink but buy from the local farmer & they can till can fly one cracker of a pigeon as I like to put it. cheers

But I am not knocking the fanciers who buy direct from the farmer as there are a lot of fanciers who win big time buying corn this way

Don Webb ; the main reason on us changing about 15 years ago to carbo & then the super mix later in the Week { about 12 % Protein} ; was the way our birds worked the Box or Loft as you would say ;they go up another gear ;too much protein or lead sinkers as we say out here make them Sluggist ;you have only got to look at there Keels & check out the colour to confirm that ;too many Peas beans etc give off bad Toxins & effects there Blood flow;If everyone fed Peas etc & raced the same birds no one would know the differance;as you would be all getting the same results etc;once the birds are on the Carbo mix they become much lighter & bouyent in the hand ;they tend to fill there airsacks out & work the Box at a higher distance in the air & when fit will run ;yes Run ;thats straight line flying the box  ;usley flat out . cheers

Interesting about the peas/toxins K Smile Smile I remember many years ago reading about an article on canker by Gallez etc while in Malta. Handling the top birds there he said they all had canker as such & tho being top birds for that area the level of compettion was lower in his view because of the canker. cheers

Knackered in Malta there are twice as many fanciers now than when Jules Gallez was there and the competition is high

The reason for knowing this ( I know something cheers ) is because I have friends who live in Malta and race there so I know the type of racing they are up against

we get a lot of headwinds on our north road route after 5 races we are into Scotland so I think the energy mix set them up well and feed a widowhood mix the rest of the week...would love to get farm grains but sadly no suppliers down here and would not have anywhere to store it either ...you just make the best of whats on offer
