jimmy_84 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 I am trying to find a supplier for corn in manchester i can get a normal mix with maize wheat and peas and a breed and wean mix but i am after just wheat for my rollers to get them down on the weight as they are not flying as well as they could be because they are overweight i think, but i cant find anywhere to get the wheat or barley from.
Guest tomo68 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 hi jimmy i fly mine on what tippler1 flys hes tipplers on Barley & a bit of conditioner and mine are great on that
jimmy_84 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Posted August 4, 2008 yes that is what i'm after got red band it is wheat and barley i cant get they do ok but i had them doing better on the wheat and barley but only had 2kg of it so had to use other stuff for them
Guest tomo68 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 i dont know anywhere by u that does it here ive got a few places that do it
jimmy_84 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Posted August 4, 2008 yeah lots of people said that where they live no problems getting it but here big struggle tried all local farmers but combine not till next month and even then they only sell to big places
Guest tomo68 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 its a shame mate that no one could get some to you
jimmy_84 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Posted August 4, 2008 cost far to much in delivery would double the cost of the corn
Guest tomo68 Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 i was thinking that if someone was coming your way they could drop you some off mate

jimmy_84 Posted August 4, 2008 Author Report Posted August 4, 2008 they aren't very helpful when i asked "excuse me do you sell pigeon corn" the reply was eeeew pigeons from 1 place and the other 2 just said no sorry
pjc Posted August 4, 2008 Report Posted August 4, 2008 It doesn't need to be "pigeon corn", thats why I sugested farm supplies. What brand of pigeon corn do you currently use?
