Oyster Shell
A natural source of calcium. A
must before and during breeding
season. Especially important for the hens in order to
produce smooth, hard shell eggs. If the grit you use does
not contain oyster shell, we suggest you add some. A
good pigeon grit may contain as much as 45% oyster shell. Especially
important if you have a hen locked up for breeding. The loose crushed
oyster shell may be used by itself in small containers or add to your grit.

Dulcovit Liquid Vitamin by Versele-Laga

needs to regulate the biological process in
the body. Vitamins are extremely important for
good health. The pigeon is unable to make the majority
of vitamins itself and consequently these have to be absorbed
through its feed. Vitamins, D-Pantothenic and Nicotinic acid. Ducolvit
supports the general good health, helps in the recovery after
illness and an excellent product to use during the breeding season.

pigeons, or perhaps the parents can not or will not
feed a newborn. Use this formula from day one to 7 to 14 days. (7
days for smaller breeds, up to 14 days for larger breeds.) Gradually

Carmine + L-Carnitine by Versele-
Laga
The pigeon uses a lot of energy during
flight. It performs its best if it has
the necessary reserves available. Carmine is
a balanced solution of amino acids and vitamins
, supplemented with L-carnitine and choline.
L-carnitine provides the mitochondrial,
the energy producers of the body, with sufficient
nutrition for extra energy. Carmine causes less lactic acid
to be produced in the muscles and the pigeon has greater
stamina during the flight. Through an optimized metabolism of
fat. The pigeon produces more and better quality crop milk.
