Product Description
Homon is a scientifically formulated pelleted ration containing a wide range of ingredients, many of which cannot be included in traditional pigeon mixtures due to their natural form and palatability. They contain however, a wide range of nutritious substances not always found in traditional mixtures. Using the latest computerised food formulation techniques, the constituent parts are carefully selected to produce an end product, which is consistently palatable and firm with the following specification: Oil 4% Crude Protein 19% Fibre 4% Ash 6.5% Vitamin A 17,500iu/kg Vitamin D3 2,000iu/kg Vitamin E 16.5iu/kg Molybdenum 0.2mg/kg Feed ingredients are checked before use for oil, crude protein, moisture, minerals and amino acids. Vitamins A, D3, B1, B6, pantothenic acid, choline, E, K and biotin are added during mixing along with the trace elements iron, copper, manganese, zinc, cobalt and iodine. Feeding Homon pellets is a way of ensuring pigeons receive a wide range of different nutrients, many of which will be absent or at low levels in traditional feed mixes. Homon pellets, although more expensive than most corn mixtures, are in fact a very cost-effective feed since the high nutritional content means that 1.35oz of Homon pellets equal 1.5oz of pigeon corn (based on analysis of several proprietary pigeon mixtures). Homon is also easily assimilated by pigeons since the grains and pulses have been ground up. Homon is supplied in 20kg bags and can be fed as a percentage of the normal diet, mixed with traditional mixtures, or it can be fed on its own thus ensuring the pigeons receive their full nutrient requirement.
