MOREhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif http://www.garvo.eu/racingpigeons/sun_postduiflucht.jpg G-spirits Feral pigeons feed on seeds, grains, plant buds and sometimes insects, all of which make up a complete diet. That's why pigeon food with only grains and seeds is incomplete. Garvo added the lacking nutrients to g-spirits to provide the right nutrients in every phase of the season: its food contains vitamins, minerals, amino acids and fatty acids in the right composition and in a highly digestible form. This supports an optimum activity of the nervous system and helps reduce stress. When you feed with g-spirits all year round, you will reap benefits in every period of the season. Moulting Many pigeon fanciers see moulting time as the end of a season, but in fact it marks a new phase. The pigeons that you want to keep need new plumage. Their bodies needs to be almost completely rejuvenated in order to return in a good performance again. The food will make or break the quality of the 'new pigeon'. The right food at moulting time lays the foundation for the results in the new season. 7003 g-spirits moulting has all necessary nutrients for brilliant new plumage. You can give g-spirits moulting until the last feather is half grown. Rest In their period of rest it is important for pigeons to get to a slim condition and prepare themselves for the important breeding time. The best egg and fertilisation results are achieved with slim birds. Fat pigeons lay fewer eggs and their fertilisation is poorer. You can reach an optimum breeding condition with your flock by using 7004 g-spirits rest. Slightly adapt the quantity of food if the temperature calls for it. http://www.garvo.eu/racingpigeons/sun_paring_postduiven.jpg Breeding When you pair two champions there is no guarantee that you will get a new topper. More important is that the 'chemistry' between the bird and the hen is right. Love will give them the best squabs! But before eggs can hatch, there have to be fertilised eggs. This requires a proper hormone level, which depends on the pigeons' balance and condition. When the pigeons are in good condition, breeding happens easily. 7004 g-spirits rest is what you need for the vitality of breeding pigeons. Feed them with g-spirits rest until the squabs are out. Then switch to 7002 g-spirits breeding and increase the quantity with 20 - 30 per cent. G-spirits breeding ensures vital squabs; it contains the right dosage of calcium to make strong bones. In case you breed in the winter you must increase the quantity of food if the cold is extreme. As soon as the last peeper is weaned off you can take care of your breeders with g-spirits rest until their moulting period. Young pigeons To ensure an optimum development of your squabs you can feed them g-spirits breeding until weaning them off. The balance of proteins and fats in g-spirits breeding will produce well-muscled young pigeons with silky-soft plumage. Proteins have great influence on the moult of the smaller feathers, especially in the darkened squabs. And as to the quantity of food, the rule of thumb is: ensure that your pigeons will want for nothing, but that all ingredients are easily digested. Once the young birds can fly away, you can feed them 7001 g-spirits sprint. If you adjust the quantity of food to the training intensity, the pigeons will develop and maintain a tip-top condition. The races What a big day when the races start! Your role is that of motivator. Your pigeons return to their homes more for the ambiance in their lofts than for their mates, their eggs or their young. Your effort makes all the difference! The amount of fuel that you give your pigeons is also based on the oils in 7001 g-spirits sprint and 7000 g-spirits marathon. Nowadays, fats (oils) are more frequently used instead of proteins as fuel during the flights. G-spirits sprint no longer differentiates between preparation for a short or middle-long race, because condition and form are of major importance for both kinds of races. A skater will not prepare himself differently for a five-kilometre than for a ten-kilometre race. The main difference is the training. You encourage your pigeons, and the right amount of food is just a matter of good sense. However, you may decide to let your pigeons to eat their fill just before longer or heavier races. You can follow the entire g-spirits diet plan for young pigeons, cock-pigeons and widowhood hens, but the latter can be fed more scantilyor poorly with barley. Widowhood pigeons that are not in competition can be fed with g-spirits rest, but you should not overfeed them. An important aspect is that the pigeons must have enough fuel for their race. That is, their tank must never be empty during their race, but too full a tank is deadweight. G-spirits sprint is the complete diet for short and middle-long distance races, and you need not supplement it. For performance in long and overnight distances, g-spirits marathon is the only food you need. G-spirits marathon is so tasty for pigeons that it’s a feast, and they eat plenty of it. G-spirits sprint and marathon are mainly based on the activity of oils as the source of energy. The ethereal oils with omega 3 and omega 6 fatty acids in g-spirits act as clean fuel. Providing oils as fuel for pigeons is not new, but the trick is to provide the various oils in the right proportion. The mix of oils in g-spirits sprint and marathon is carefully composed and ensures that the food reserves (glycogen) in their muscles is not affected, and at the same time allows the pigeon to store more glycogen in the muscles;that the pigeon's muscles can use more oxygen to break down the glycogen into ATP when they get used to this oil mix. The more oxygen used, the less lactic acid produced. Lactic acid causes fatigue and stiffness; a calming effect on the nerve system. This raises the pigeons’ pain threshold, so that they do not give up easily.All in all, the oils from g-spirits sprint and g-spirits marathon ensure that much more energy can be stored in the pigeon’s body while also reducing the amount of waste matters (lactic acid) released during its race. The result is that the pigeon remains longer fit and supple. Feeding a depurative mix is therefore not needed after races. Of course, there are other components besides the essential oils which play a vital role in the food. For example, amino acids in the pellets counteracts early moulting. for the feeding schedule, click "feeding schedules" above.for an overview of compositions, click "product information" above.Health When you structurally give the g-spirits mixtures you are always providing all the necessary nutrients. With g-spirits, pigeons gradually build up more resistance and become much less vulnerable. It is better not to give any additional products when you use g-spirits. Extra support or treatments should only be given if a pigeon is out of sorts. In case of E-coli we advise to to use profi-teck. Pigeons’ air tracts must be absolutely clean, otherwise they can never perform optimally. Give treatments only when absolutely necessary. As a means to keeping your birds healthy, Garvo prefers a wholesome diet above preventative treatments. Providing g-spirits feeding structurally will support your pigeons’ health by building up and maintaining their resistance. But if you need to give treatments, try to do this at the beginning of the week. Consult a proper vet if you are worried. AND FINALLYhttp://forum.pigeonbasics.org/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif http://www.garvo.eu/racingpigeons/sun_postduiven.jpg Prestige pigeon foodIf you opt for a well-assorted mixture to get a step up in the homing pigeon sport, then prestige pigeon food may be the answer. The prestige pigeon food are easy to use and the rich composition guarantees the desired result in every season. You may complement the mixtures with g-spirits solution. Moulting and wintertime When you want your pigeons to have a beautiful plumage, they need the right nutrients, especially proteins. The richly assorted 5583 prestige moulting provides sound nutrition during their moult. Give prestige moulting when the last feather is half grown and add one quarter of barley to the food. This will bring the pigeons in a slim condition, which is necessary for good breeding results. This special food for moulting time is completed by adding one-third part of g-spirits solution. Breeding A good condition of the breeding couples ensures well-fertilised eggs. You can give a resting food until the chicks have hatched. Then switch to two-thirds of 5582 prestige breeding and one-third of g-spirits solution. Increase the food quantity with 20 - 30 per cent from the time the chicks have hatched and also scatter some profi-calcium on their food once a week. When they breed in winter, increase the quantity of food if the cold is extreme. After weaning the last youngster, you can add about 20 per cent of barley to the breeders' food until their moulting time. http://www.garvo.eu/racingpigeons/sun_jonge_duiven.jpg Young pigeons To help the squabs get used to solid food after weaning and to make sure they get all the vital nutrients, there is 5587 prestige junior growing. Prestige junior growing contains small peas and small kernels of maize, which can easily and promptly be digested by young pigeons. When combined with one-third part of g-spirits solution and profi-calcium scattered on the food once a week, it guarantees a perfect development of the squabs. You can start with 5586 prestige junior racing from the time they fly out. It’s a first-rate race food for your young birds. Add one-third of g-spirits solution to complete the food. A very simple feeding program for caring for your young birds is listed under "feeding schedules" above. Prestige easy If you cannot handle difficult schedules, have very little time or work irregular hours and someone else must take care of your pigeons, then 5588 prestige easy is just the thing for you. Just give prestige easy every day of the week during the racing season. Your pigeons will get all the necessary nutrients for their races just by adjusting the quantity of food. You just gradually increase the quantity of food during the week, that's all. The food is complete by adding g-spirits solution. This feed system is very simple, and is listed under "feeding schedules" above. for the feeding schedule in racing times, click "feeding schedules" above.for an overview of compositions, click "product information" above.

But the first thing you need is a healthy pigeon. Top-quality pigeons can demonstrate their value only when their nutrition and health, and your care and attention are in balance. When you want the best, you can choose from two food series: the complete g-spirits mixtures, or the richly assorted prestige mixtures. g-spirits is ideal when you opt for convenience and simplicity and when performance and health for your pigeons are paramount. The g-spirits mixtures are complete and easy. You only need one mixture for each season, and there is no need for supplements except for some additional sea shell grit. This makes the g-spirits mixtures first-rate instruments for achieving top results.
