good luck , if your local corn merchant stock,s Versa - Laga ,they should have the booklets in for free . one thing i would add is , there system is set one day ahead example basket Thursday for Friday race ,just remember that when reading it .

no JAM , in all honesty , i do , but when i started i wasnt aware that MY pigeons were diffrent , MY loft wasnt the same as theres ,I lived in a diffrent location etc , may sound obvious , but not to me as a novice :emoticon-0126-nerd:

yes i do JAM , but with the fore-thought my loft was 700 miles further North , and with a mix of un-tested pigeons within , and no specific routine , all very diffrent i am sure than the fancier in a country with a better climate ,an established routine and a family of pigeons.

The problem with feeding programs from merchants is they will only create a plan that gives them Maximum profit for their business, if i was starting up i'd be inclined to ask the local Champ how to feed my doos and if he is any kinda man at all he will tell you all you need to know. jmo.

very true John , my old supplier was a good racing man also , and i never kept many pigeons back then , in fact i purchased 3 sacks of corn on that visit ,a gerry + , a Versa Laga widowhood mix and a Hi energy , the latter lasted me 3 seasons :emoticon-0136-giggle:

i disagree JAM , if the right stuff , and fed right amount at right time , the winnings should or could cover it .jmho.

i bet winning birds if given the right amount of most foods win anyway i really think feeding is so overrated most winning pigeons will win on most mixes a base mixture i think is important and just up the fats and protein etc when you feel is right so my birds are nearly on the one mixture all year round

yes , i understand that . as a novice i was offered a feeding plan for my system that worked . only a few of my birds done well on it , i kept them ,and moved the others on , built up from there . having honed the system , yes i have come accross the odd exception , ie having a bird return after missing a few days sticking him in a box with some barley ,and come basket night finding the late comer looking fit and well ,and sending him to come home first . :emoticon-0136-giggle:
