What can go wrong during the moulting period, at the diet of pigeons?

Formerly one of the most common mistakes was too few methionine gifts. This was due to too many pea shares in pigeon feed mixes. A deficiency of the amino acid arginine, lysine and zinc led 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 mixtures are alone for the Mauser. The Mauser is very stressful for the birds. The radical redesign of plumage drains valuable energy the pigeons. Now we come to our first point energy-rich mineral research! What is so important? If we look at the composition of the springs, we find that these 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: enough 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. It 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 this * is 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 seeds, hemp seeds, etc., which positively influence the course of the Mauser. Doves know their needs to take the correct components therefore instinctively.
