I think it's good to check things out. :)

 

Layers & Growers Pellets are poultry products and still contain antibiotics known as 'growth promoters'. Around 4 are still licensed by EU - there used to be a lot more . Poultry is grown for the table, so 'layers' are for good sized eggs for the table, including a yolk-colour aimed at consumers, and 'growers' for good-sized birds for the table in weeks rather than months.

 

I've used pellets for pigeons (G10s) and I've seen poultry pellets and coudn't see much difference except G10s obviously had something added. IMO pigeon pellets are poultry pellets in a different bag.

i have used them last 2 years, first class for rearing ybs.

so what do most fanciers do?

 

just feed layers to birds whilst feeding young or mix it with the corn?

 

or feed as a mix or on its own when young birds are weaned?

btw my 1st young bird reared since i returned to the sport went out and in the trap today :emoticon-0137-clapping:

 

i only have 2 cock birds broke to my loft already so was a bit nervous

but i was like a kid with a new toy when he came back in :emoticon-0136-giggle:

think kirky puts a pot down before fed lets them eat that first then feeds after ;)
