Mauser is the most important time of the year?

The older breeder claimed that the earlier moulting period was the most important time in pigeon, however, did not properly to deal. Today, we can no longer compare our time with the post-war period. There was poverty and hunger. Pigeon feed in a feed store to buy, was not a priority. Hunger was the theme and priority. The varieties of grains were needed for the baking of bread. The situation is certainly different in 2014, as pigeon feed has a high priority. An entire industry has emerged. Quality plays the most important role today in the pigeon feed industry. However, it can cause problems in the moulting season. Occasionally not properly grown there springs to. Prerequisite for a good Mauser is the health of the birds. The Mauser influences the formation of spring, when the birds are sick. Paratyphoid, paramyxovirus, Strepotoccen, worms or strong Trichomonas infections or Coccidiosis also significantly influence the plumage formation. Especially paratyphoid can be also an insidious killer. Breeder underestimate this disease. Common causes are bleeding feather tips or less pigmentation of the springs. Many breeders know the problems and often use your home remedy for this disease, but medical advice to recommend would be. Without a doubt, well fed pigeons of less susceptible as sick pigeons.

What is a good Diet?
What can go wrong during the moulting period, at the diet of pigeons?

Formerly one of the most common mistakes a few methionine was gifts. This was due to many pea shares in pigeon feed mixes.

A deficiency of the amino acid arginine, lysine and zinc leading to poor discoloration of the fields, we call it in the Nice jargon depigmentation of the springs. Unfortunately, there are still moulting mixtures that are not sufficient for a perfect Mauser. Here, the portion weighs corn, peas and wheat. These blends are not alone suitable for the Mauser.

The Mauser is very stressful for the birds. The radical redesign of the plumage precious energy escapes the pigeons. Now we come to our first point high-energy mixes! What is so important?
If we look at the composition of the springs, we notice that they consist of 90% protein (protein), 1.5% fat and the rest from water. The adequate supply of protein (protein) is absolutely necessary! In addition, research has shown that Omega 3 plays an important role during the moulting season. A summary of the diet should be:

Sufficient contained energy, protein (protein), and Omega-3. Dari, for example, has a lower protein content than flax seed. That brings us to the next point: oleaginous seeds, we take flax seed. This has a high proportion of fat and a good Omega ratio 2:5. That is, has 2 amount of Omega-6 and Omega 3 has 5 shares, arginine plays also an important role in the Mauser. Hemp seed is increasingly an important raw material carrier, because it contains also a high proportion of fat and a high usable protein like no other component.
A perfect blend of Mauser consists of many available single crops, such as wild seed, millet, Canary seed, sunflower seed, hemp seeds, etc., which positively influence the course of Mauser. Doves know their needs to take the correct components therefore instinctively.

What can go otherwise still wrong?

Pigeon fanciers, which artificially illuminate your birds during molting, negatively affect the Mauser. This, it is important that the pigeons may no longer be lit from mid-September. To thick pigeons in the Mauser often have metabolic problems and little stamina, because fat negatively affects liver function. Pigeons may be not too thick for sufficient energy. To give no feed the pigeons weekly achieved a positive effect here. Regular baths, especially in the Mauser are an absolute must! It stimulates the formation of the egg and promotes the formation of plumage. Use a conventional bath salts or a tablespoon each of vinegar and salt, this reduces parasites and other vermin. The additions immediately show in the bath water effect, but eliminates parasites, because these energy and affect the metabolism.

At the end of a note:

You can bathe your pigeons outside the pigeon beat, wet

Springs slow the pigeons, and thus they become the easy prey of birds of prey. Bathe your pigeons exclusively in the loft or in a moving Aviary.
