Feeding Yb'S

[The engineer]

Could anyone tell me how much i should be feeding my yb's. They are just starting to fly and are becoming a bit of a pain to get in. I am trying to juggle there need for nutrition and my need to get them in when i call them. I don't want bad habits forming at this young stage.

Thanks

add 10% barley to your feed and feed till they start to leave the barley

Well i feed my youngsters 1 1/4 oz per pigeon per day. They go out at 08.30 and they,ll fly for anything upto 1hr 1/2 , They get called in at 11.30 they,re feed 1/4 oz , at 17.00 they,re feed 1oz each.

Then at 18.00 there curtains go down for the night, There feed on bamfords young bird high protien both feeds.Feeding will change when training / racing starts.

Hope this helps
