pigeon food

[bobtail]

:'( :'( :'(just to say what a lot of rubbish is going into the bags of feeding just now we are getting ripped off once again. :'(

[pjc]

depends on which brand you buy

[Wiley]

to be honest, i bought the Gem moulting mixture, however bad thing about london theres no pigeon food shops, so i get my corn delivered, so didnt check mnixtures ect, i know alot of people are fans of Gem Corns, but personally I dont like them this moulting mixture and racing mixture i hadnt been very impressed with, just personally opinion, i personally believe the two best corn manufactors out there is Marimans and Vanrobaeys

[pjc]

Have the corn shops all gone now Wiley?

yes PJC last one to close was Lenny Meshers in Canning Town, now if your to get corn its about a 40 mile round trip from my house to Basildon, or a 30 mile round trip to the farm in upminister.

The problem is more and more will close as the sport declines and the price of corn keeps escalating, soon only the large companies will be left and you will have to order it in bulk and pay the delivery charges, hope i'm wrong.

Do you have a web address or phone number to contact them m8

[Chriss]

well i know you can order from here mate http://pigeons.taylorschoice.co.uk/index.php contact details etc are on there. there based right near where i live n i they deliver to the whole of the UK so you shouldnt have any problems

[OLDYELLOW]

could be worth while getting a few club members together in your area and bulk buy corn and split the cost then works cheaper for all

[Chriss]

yeah a few relatives of mine up in scotland do that for bird food  

[OLDYELLOW]

i think with the inflated prices and i cant see them coming down as they'll be enjoying the profit margins it will certainly see them through the credit crunch

[Chriss]

your probly right yellow - always worth a try though

[Guest Freebird]

Farmer friend says he can't get rid of his crops this year and the price is way low! I know the imported stuff will be higher due to fuel etc but somats going on(wiseman)

[frank-123]

i use marimans varimix  it's quite expensive but i don't keep a lot of birds so like to give the best during the moult

i will add barley in the next couple of weeks which will make it last longer
