golden boost

has anyone ever used golden boost? ive heard of it before but never used it.
corn man told me its good for breeding with but mine wont even touch it....they seem to like the bos pellets though so im happy with that.

Im useing nutri-power and homoform on the feed for the breeders and young birds. The birds love it.
ive never tried boss pellets are they expensive?..............amanda

i was going to buy the homoform but they didnt have any thats why i got the g/boost.
the bos pellets cost me 9+ pound but afterwards i found out hed had my pants down as the rrp was 5.75...
last year i got a sack of pellets which were really good but havnt been able to get them this year thats why i bought the bos.....ill have to be more organised next year and go to a different corn shop as every time i go to buy something he never has it, he says he sells more through mail order and not from his shop...

Hi David, i buy on line at taylorschoice.co.uk. click on the pigeon site. I have used them about 3/4 times now.
i have brought baskets and feeders (plastic for easy cleaning) and medicines, the most i have paid for delivery is £5.80 and ive had next day delivery service. We have a shop at wheatley hill in Sunderland but boy do they over charge. so i shop at taylors now, and if i cant find what i want i just pm taylorschoice on pb.
oh i compared their prices to boddy and ridewood, and they are loads cheeper. ( have a look and let me know what you think.)..............amanda

thanks amanda will have a look now...

never used it david,but is it pinhead oats or something like that?

anyone using linseed ? tried to get some yesterday but corn shop dont sell it as he says its old way of feeding, and says these new picking stones/grits etc are all they need....

i use it on corn Dvid birds love it a few drops i got it from petron lofts

have started using the g10 pellets this year, birds seem to like them straight away..........have used the bos pellets last year but didnt think much to them, the best ones i ever used were turkey growing pellets..........

never used any of them before just plenty of maples

jeeezz, thats a blast from the past.............used to spend hours me and Dad making golden boost in the kitchen (LOL Mum loved the mess we left) from memory it was pinhead oatmeal, salt, sugar, calcium powder, vitamin tabs, codliver oil and dried with a bit of flour

birds used to love it, but crushing them little green race vitamin tablets was a b*tch

it was an "old Hands" product i think, and he finished not so long ago

Mark I remember it well
