I use a standard moulting mix with 33% barley added also 2 times a week I put oils on the corn and add cayeene pepper. I was told about this 3 years ago and took no notice I wish I had listened, you can buy this from any supermarket in the spice/herb aisle. Put a teaspoon to 2 kilos of feed and watch your birds next day. I read in the Racing Pigeon Pictorial last year about a fancier who gave it is sprint team he swore by it, if you google it look at the many benefits it has, you wont be disapointed.
you must have to make a paste to get it on the corn why not mix it in your water
No !!!!!!!, The reason one mixes it on the feed with some oil etc, is because you want the birds to get the full effect of it in there mouth & not in there stomach/crop, where the benefits are not quite the same or as good, just like it is recommended for human use. Now !!!!!!!! for those game enough etc take a small spoonful as a treat & then hang on the best you can.

I use a lot of cayanne when I cook I get it from the mexican food store as they sell a lot so it is good and fresh where ever you get it make sure it hasn't been sitting on the shelf a long time

Helps blood pressure and circulation as well as acid production that aids in digestion
True !!!!!!!! it gets the blood boiling etc . years ago Slugmonkey, a near neighbour of yours (sort of) Billy Taylor !!!! Billy T to me "PMSL" as I fondly called him etc, from Texas. First put me onto it on another site. A wizard of a man , but unfortunately !!!!!!!!! No one understood him etc, except myself & Roland. Enjoy.

I took 19 positions 2nd through 8th and then I peppered the sheet all the way down ( lol ) I lost by 30 seconds it was REAL gusty with the wind blowing in excess of 20 mph most of the way I dont know if the pepper helped but it sure didnt hurt !!!!!
