Peas Whats The Difference

March 7, 2012

Most of your top distance men still feed beans/maple`s at some time so who do you believe , my brother used to feed just beans to ybs when racing ! was unbeatable so think its upto you what is best , and why are there so many mixes on the market if it was so simple .

and I know some that still do ,and I know of one in particular who has since passed away but he was adamant about feeding nothing but beans to his young birds and he won about everything there was to win,I do not believe that feeding beans causes any problems what so ever as I knew a lot of the older members in my old club used more beans than anything else and it was neither detrimental to their birds or their performances it is like everything else with pigeons everybody does their own thing and birds win races for hundreds of fanciers who do not feed the same thing,older fanciers used to buy a bag of mix from the coop and they won on that ,what about the Belgian sprinter that feeds his young birds barley and they win on that.

very true mate but theres more to it than that he clearly he just dnt feed just barley ,well i dnt belive that anyway ,and the days of the old days are well gone everything eg the birds the type of food available ect is alot differant ,i agree with the fact that people still win on beans ect but theres no consitancy with them flyers eg top fed this week next week hour behind and thats how alot of them flyers are to be the best thease days and to keep up with people u got fly 110% week in week out or ull be left behind .spose really its how u see ya racing just bit of fun or the will to win .

theres a man i no not to far from where i live,always flys natrual and uses beans.he has all the best pigeons and this is fact hes always been like that ,years ago flying on the north ect he won nationals all the way up to lerwick ect cracking flyer even nicer bloke.then as the times changed eg the feed the widow system ect he was no where to be seen ,hes still podding on with his birds and the best u can get as well i no this from where he had them from and people winning with them at the highest level.but still he wont change the feed or the way he flys .i truly belive if he changed his ways he would prob be one of the best but u cant tell thease older heads
