I use layers pellets when they are feeding young and the birds love them. They're also very cheap to feed as well.

Layers pellets are Chicken feed pellets and they cost chicken feed as well. A sack of 25kg costs about £6. to £7. I dread to think how much BOS or G10's would cost for 25kg. I bet it would be about 2 or 3 times the price.

Same with me mate, best breeding season i have ever had,  full round, never done that in my life,  will not change a thing this year,  ;)

i have used the g 10,s and am very happy with them and have put some top flyers onto them as well ,i feed around 20/25% pellets to 75/80 % seed to my young and they fly for nearly 2 hours every night no probs ,i have found if you feed the birds them as young they will eat pellets all there life ,but if you were to give say a 4/5 year old they will turn their nose up at them unless very hungry .ps since feeding my youngsters these pellets i have had no ailments at all with the young .TOP NOTCH

I used chicken layer pellets last year, the first for me. The only thing i didnt like about them was the droppings were quite loose. is there anything that can be mixed through the pellets to firm the droppings?

Posted

yes you tend to find they a bit loose depends how much you feed   try the rearer pellets  for breeding   feed 30-50 percent  other 50per cent normal mix  remember they tend to drink more water  when feeding

No, as i say it was my first year using any kind of pellet last year. They are quite easy to get and cheap as well. I may look into trying them this year though. ;)
