Book: Feeding Pigeons a Healthy Diet
The proper nutrition and feeding of pigeons can vary greatly depending on the goals pursued, such as breeding fancy pigeons, keeping racing pigeons, high-flying or tumbling pigeons, or producing meat pigeons.
Even within the annual cycle, different feed mixtures are necessary to optimally nourish the pigeons for raising their young or, in particular, to bring their plumage colors to their fullest potential. The pigeons' performance is also influenced by their diet.
Every pigeon breeder and keeper will find in this book all the information they need about the correct feeding and healthy nutrition of their charges – a work unique in its density for all pigeon breeders and pigeon lovers who want to optimally care for their darlings and occasionally pamper them without fattening them up.
Dr. Dietmar Köhler is a long-time, passionate breeder of various pigeon breeds. He was a research associate at the Faculty of Agriculture at the University of Leipzig, specializing in small animal and laboratory animal breeding and husbandry, and most recently, scientific director for extensive animal husbandry at the State Institute for Agriculture in Iden (Saxony-Anhalt). His professional experience and knowledge form the basis of this comprehensive textbook.
