Description
NEW !!!
The unique sports mixture for speed races that allows true sprinters to maintain their top speed. Contains mainly the gradually absorbable carbohydrates. Due to the perfect balance of proteins, fats, amino acids that are easily digestible, the metabolism is not stressed.
With the addition of the Pro Immune pellets, the reserves and resistance are maximally replenished for the next races, partly due to the vitamins, proteins, pre- and pro-biotics used.
The pigeons continue to absorb everything until the last day because few additional supplements need to be mixed over the feed.

over feeding not training enough pigeons not good enough you don't say about your returns or losses and if your birds are that bad did you breed ybs from them
It could be a number of things Jim. But please don’t let it get you down. You will get different answers from different people as we all have different opinions but hopefully we can help. I’ll go through a few things when I get a bit more time.
I don’t think what you’re feeding is the problem. Are you far behind? Size of loft, number of birds kept? Where are your birds from? What racing method? Is this your first season and how many races have you had this year so far? As you can see there are many things that need considering.

Jim, I agree with what George and Andy have said. I doubt it's what you are feeding. I've seen blokes win races on nothing but peas and nothing but maize! Honestly.
This is what I feed mine, the ratios would be different, but it's still a mixture, like yours. That's all they need.
There's no reason why they shouldn't fly well on what you feed, unless they are overfed or under trained or there's a health issue. Or a combination.
The pigeons, when you let them out do they storm out in a rush, do a lap then vanish for 20 or 30 minutes? Or do they just fly laps around the house?
If it's the later I suspect you might have a health problem. Pigeons in super form have so much energy they can fly for an hour and disappear for long periods. If they are gone for so long you start worrying, they are about right!
Another thing to consider is your loft. Is it dry and free of draughts? Nothing will affect the form of the birds as much as sleeping in a draughty loft. If you go in there of an evening, all the birds should be peacefully on a perch, and the temperature should be pleasant with no winds blowing through.
Rather than picture of the feed, a picture of the droppings might be helpful. A picture of the droppings first thing in the morning might have some clues.
I know how frustrating it is when your birds are not going well. I've been there too. I hope you can sort it out.

Hi Jim
Don't let being last get you down, someone has to be !!
You obviously have a desire to win, that is your goal, but as you find the right methods, just enjoy being around the birds and let them enjoy being around you, that's a great place to start. If neither you, or are birds are happy the results will follow suit.
As the others have said, the feed really is only a very small part of racing, their are many other factors to consider.
Give us a bit more information on your set up, methods, the birds you have and the club/area you fly in and we can try to give some advice.
All the best for now.

Also just remember Rome wasn’t built in a day. If you have only just come into the sport, or restarted, it will take time. A top fancier once told me that it takes 5 years to establish a team, even when moving home it can take a while to re establish a good team. I know very few fanciers who have come into the sport and started winning straight away. Those that have, have usually spent a fortune on buying in pigeons but unless they continued buying in their early successes were short lived. You learn nothing by having instant success as you think it’s easy. Better to learn as you go and with a little patience and continued progress, however small, will get you there. You’ll be a much better fancier for it.
