Hi Albert mare.Just got the post and saw your comment saying you live in NZ now but not sure where to get pigeon products from.You can buy many pigeon products from CHECKER-FLIGHT NEW ZEALAND 18 HENWOOD RD,TAUPAKI,AUCKLAND.E-MAIL wairuru@xtra.co.nz Ask them to post you a price list of all their pigeon products,and they can courier the products to your door.Hope you get this.
I might have to try that! for me! Garlic-tea? sounds healthy enough. Really, it’s good to give them a “pick me up” even(maybe esp.’ly) during the off season too! Winter can be rough on birds depending on where you live.I know a guy who lives in Alberta, enough said! He tries to keep them well fed,& lets them out on “warm” days.Besides, after the winter comes breeding season. How are they then??????? Good stuff! Always enjoy the articles.
And where do you get some of these ingrediants? I am not sure about raw cane sugar… maybe glucose instead…much more digestable. Beet sugar is also very digestable.
please show the detalis for the racing season about taken pigeon every week.
and thanks for you about it .
will be happy some help with advise on on how to keep them healty.

What is white nettle??
Nice tip!
THNX
Sounds like a bit much to me…when i think of adding garlic to tea it makes me go yuck even though i love both…In my opinion i think garlic should be used alone, i know when i add to much of certain things to myself it will just run through me defeating the purpose…however thanks for passing this along, while i may not agree with this the helpful info passed along on here i know alot of us do find very helpful.
tnx for the helpful info.i’ll try it with my birds.
