| hi glemserlofts, good to see you on site and contributing to the topics........yes I use versele laga corn at the moment, its the best all round and I mix it with 1/3rd depurative and then a % of G10 pellets.
once I have young birds in the nest I will alter the mix. |

The magic mix etc laugh, laugh laugh. 60 years odd I've been on it's trail as such & I suspect I'm no nearer to finding it than when I first started, sadly. Cheers |

The magic mix O/S smile, smile, it must be out there some where, when one takes in the waffle by the pigeon grain suppliers I suspect. Because I doubt very much they would tell us a porky/untruth to get a sale etc. Cheers |

| i used to use a lot of Gerry but one season had a few bad bags a lot of the popcorn maize was poor quality old and chipped on the edges harbouring mould good job i noticed it could have been a fatal problem for the birds and have been put off since but have never had a problem with their other mixes |

Never worried all that much about the polished bit Ray etc. For me, I'm one of those types that loves eating an apple straight of a tree as such & that includes also the skin & the core. Cheers. |
