Versele-Laga, Pro Breeding + Racing

[andyyy]

Hello everyone! Just been looking on my local corn stores website about the price of corn and noticed that Versele-Laga, Pro Breeding + Racing Was just about the same price as there own make corn! I havent used this before as for the last few years i've been using there own which isn't a bad corn, However If Versele-Laga corn is alright i'll feed them that Just wondering If anyone could tell me what it's like, Thanks in advance, Andy.

Probably find the Versele_Lage is more polished / cleaner.

 

Good quality stuff, If i could get at the same price as my local stuff then i would.

 

Big company spends loads on dietry research to give the best balance.

 

Local corns are copies which there is nothing wrong with.

 

My loacl stuff is 10.95 for 20 kg, Gem allround that I am using just now is 13.75 for 25 kg, work out about the same.

 

Birds actually eat the 10.95 mix better that the other?

I've been using V/L Start plus and Star plus a few years now and had good results,it's £14-40 for 20kg here.To be honest we're spoilt for choice there's plenty of really good mixes on the market.

Versa-Laga very good feed as is vanrobaeys if not better IMO,both pricey. I'm on Gem Irish @ £14:00 for 25.kg,good clean feed.

I was thinking I could add some Barley or Beans to it depending on what the birds are doing distance wise and the time of the week etc

its 32% Maize 33% various Peas,16 % wheat ,7% dari and the other 12% of various small seeds that are listed

[neila]

Purchased three bags of pro sport and have mixed a bag of beans and half a bag of barley with it pretty happy with the look of it and the price .I will add some fats to it once we get over 200 miles or so . I will try my cocks on it and leave the hens on the normal grub to see if it makes any difference

[neila]

I see this mix is now called Classic due to a rebranding and. priced at £9.95 in my local corn shop ,still looks a nice clean mx

[Rainman]

I read recently a top distance fancier fed this mix all year round and added beans during breeding

I did the same by adding 50 per cent beans during breeding

I was thinking of using it during the old bird season at one time with 30 per cent beans on a Sunday and 30 per cent barley Monday and Tuesday then straight or with some extra carbs and fat Thursday

 

I am no expert on corn but it looks a good mix for the price, just not sure why it is so cheap as to my untrained eye it looks clean and a. decent balance of grains to use as a base
