One thing worth knowing

Bucktons don't publish a protein or energy analysis for this mix, so "lower energy and protein" here is their own description rather than a figure to compare against a racing formula. If you want a number to weigh it against another feed, this card doesn't have one.

Why we chose it

An economy mix that's actually formulated for lower energy, rather than just priced lower, does the job a winter feed is supposed to do. Bucktons already have the trust of pigeon keepers, which matters in a niche where reputation counts for more than packaging.

— Matt, founder

Specifications

Type: Resting/winter economy mix
Brand: Bucktons
Pack size: 20KG
Feeding period: Moulting and resting

Full description

A pigeon resting through the winter, not racing or raising young, does not need the same energy density as one in full season — which is the case for a separate winter mix rather than feeding the racing formula year-round out of habit.

This is Bucktons' winter economy mix, built from wheat, barley, whole maize, maple peas, tic beans, white peas, blue peas and red dari. Bucktons describe it as a resting mixture, formulated to provide lower energy and protein levels specifically for the resting period rather than for active racing or breeding.

One thing worth knowing. Bucktons don't publish a protein or energy analysis for this mix, so "lower energy and protein" here is their own description rather than a figure to compare against a racing formula. If you want a number to weigh it against another feed, this card doesn't have one.

Who it's for: pigeon keepers feeding through moulting or the winter rest period, who want a genuinely lower-energy mix rather than continuing on a racing formula out of season.
