On what's missing
No protein, fat or fibre analysis is given on this card, and no guidance is provided for feeding outside the January to April breeding window - for the rest of the year you would need a different mix from Bucktons' range.
Why we chose it
A mix specifically named for breeding and weaning takes the guesswork out of matching feed to the calendar, which matters more at this stage than at any other point in the pigeon year. Buying at 20kg suits a loft with several breeding pairs rather than one or two birds.

Full description
Breeding season puts different demands on pigeons than the rest of the year, and a keeper serious about it usually switches feed to match - which is why Bucktons sell a dedicated breed and wean mix for the January to April window rather than expecting one blend to cover the whole calendar.
The composition is maple peas, pigeon red dari, wheat, tares, white dari and safflower seed. Bucktons specify this mix for the January to April period and describe it as suitable for breeding and weaning specifically.
- Composition: maple peas, pigeon red dari, wheat, tares, white dari, safflower seed
- Feeding time: January to April
- Suitable for breeding and weaning
- 20kg bag
On what's missing. No protein, fat or fibre analysis is given on this card, and no guidance is provided for feeding outside the January to April breeding window - for the rest of the year you would need a different mix from Bucktons' range.
Who it's for: pigeon keepers actively breeding or weaning birds through the early part of the year, who want a mix specified for that stage rather than a generic all-year feed.
