Breeding Pigeons and Diet Effects on Squabs
Flying Homer Hen vanis is recommended by some breeders though cross mating offers few advantages. An exclusive winter diet of peas risks bowel troubles. Good healthy squabs come from well-mated stock and avoid inbreeding penalties such as crooked breast bones and cross beaks. January begins high aquaris demand with prices peaking from now to July.
Attention to fall hatched chicks and coop care
