Grit..............

how much grit do member give their birds per day............ive cut mine down very slightly as they were diving into it like food, maybe too much can be as bad as none at all..


whats yer thoughts...?

Give mine a gully pot every single day pal fresh every morning now there sat on young They are going crazy for it

Will agree with you Tony they need fresh grit everyday when on youngsters but I also used black minerals when they had youngsters

Always gave little and often on the boxes

i use a all in one patagoon 1/2 a pick pot full 2x a day each section full pot once ybs in the nest.
yes they hammer it but better in than out

yes I use the de patagoon fw, good stuff it is, better than the more expensive matrix.

Grit and black minerals, fresh every day, they absolutely murder both when they've got babies in the nest so my thoughts are if they want it that much then they must need it

gave mine some this morning at 9 am when i went to lock up at 4pm it had all gone

yes, I give it every day....but did notice they were going a bit mad on it, mine arnt on ybs yet tho`, but some on eggs

It will help your eggshells be nice and strong.......And another thing I use is natural vitamimeral +vit.A.D.EIt's really good stuff it's a red powder

crushed oyster shell grit from jollyes pet stores,redstone grit,clay block,black and pink minerals 24/7 from the day of pairing up but until they lay all the above are mixed together and a portion given in the next box daily so the hens get chance to take it on board ,when the cocks are driving the hen they don't get chance to get at it in the loft but once they have laid things settle down and the above are given separately in clay pots and the clay pots are stacked in a wire feeder

yeah daily, plus black and pink minerals, feeding young so hammer it

It's got nothing to do with great ......but Has anybody tried wonder pigeon It's absolutely unbelievable stuff for racing and breeding I give it 10 out 10 if you haven't try it it's worth trying it
