Supplementary feed for pigeons

What can go wrong when feeding pigeons during molting?
Insufficient methionine supplementation used to be one of the most common mistakes. This was mainly due to an excessive pea content in pigeon feed mixes. A deficiency in the amino acids arginine, lysine, or zinc led to poor feather coloration, which we call feather depigmentation in Nice terminology. Unfortunately, there are still molting mixes that are insufficient for a perfect molt. These mixes are predominantly composed of corn, peas, and wheat. These mixes are not suitable for molting on their own. The molting process is very stressful for pigeons. The radical regeneration of their plumage depletes their valuable energy. Now we come to our first point: high-energy mixes! So, what is important? If we look at the composition of feathers, we find that they consist of 90% protein, 1.5% fat, and the rest water. An adequate supply of protein is absolutely essential! Furthermore, research has shown that omega-3 fatty acids also play a crucial role in molting. A comprehensive diet should contain sufficient energy, protein, and omega-3 fatty acids. Dari, for example, has a lower protein content than flaxseed.

This brings us to the next point: oil-rich seeds, specifically flaxseed. It has a high fat content and a good omega-6 ratio of 2:5. This means that omega-6 is present in 2 parts and omega-3 in 5 parts. Arginine also plays an important role in molting. Hemp seed is increasingly becoming an important source of raw materials, as it also contains a high fat content and a high amount of usable protein, more than any other component. A perfect molting mix consists of many available individual seeds, such as canary seed, wild seeds, millet, sunflower seeds, hemp seed, etc., which positively influence the molting process. Pigeons know their needs and thus instinctively consume the right components.
