Feeding for performance during racing Racing pigeons are avian athletes and, like any other athlete, feeding them optimally for the job ahead, means that their full potential is more likely to be realised. The more the fancier deviates from the best diet, the harder it is for the birds to do well. Crop milk, also known as “pigeon milk” for pigeons is used to feed the squabs. This milk is produced in the pigeon’s crop a few days before the eggs are hatched. So by the time the squabs come out, their milk is ready to be fed. The milk is fed to the baby pigeons on their first 10 days.

Feeding Tips
- Water - Poultry should have access to clean, fresh water at all times
- Grit - When birds have access to coarse litter or whole grains, an insoluble grit should be fed. Limit intake of grit to 1 pound per 100 pounds of feed or 2 pounds per 100 birds per week. Grit can be blended with their regular ration or offered free choice in a separate feeder.
- Do not allow feeders to run empty or stale feed to accumulate.
- Never feed any feedstuffs that are moldy, musty or suspect in any way.
Homestead Pigeon Feeds are formulated specifically for pigeons and should not be fed to other species, or to birds in large commercial operations where a more customized diet would be more appropriate. Do not feed to cattle or other ruminants.
