roundabout feeding

those racing roundabout, do you feed cocks and hens same way, same mix, same amount?
once a day, twice? in boxes or all together on floor?

New ground for me only raced cocks in the past.

thanks Hal

i used to feed a diat mix to my hens they did well on it up to 300 miles i never raced any further than that at the time i remember sending 9 to berwick and locking up the loft after 15 minutes of first arrival we had visitors that day to i remember it well i never trained much either but they would fly well enough around the loft think it was versel laga diat 1000 i used but went widowhood after that season ,on roundabout it was usually the hens outdoing the cocks ,for me anyway but have never had a big team as such atb

We feed both exactly the same . No different what so ever . At present once a day so as to control them and get used to new sections and trap . When the work starts,  twice a day.  All fed in troughs as well as much as they want . Done the pots but tent to waste a lot that way in my opinion..

thanks for info

Not sure if I helped you but its been good for us so far

I got a plan, hens will be fed slightly different monday, tues, weds, see what happens. If it works I'll share on here, already got 5 different mixes stashed here and there

Ok no worries,  yes let us know if it works

never raced roundabout, just cocks for now, hopefully could try in future .

Had brilliant results with hens over the years

only ever raced widowhood on the rare occasion ive raced, always thought it was a waste of potentially good hens
