Protein is an important part of a pigeon’s diet, particularly during breeding, the development of young birds and the annual moult, when the demands on muscle and feather growth increase.

Backs Protein Plus is a complementary feed formulated with a blend of animal proteins, including milk protein powder, together with yeast and mannan oligosaccharides (MOS). It also contains added minerals including calcium and magnesium.

The powder is mixed directly with the feed and is commonly used during breeding, while rearing young pigeons, after demanding races and throughout the moulting period as part of a balanced feeding programme.

Composition

Milk protein powder, yeast, calcium carbonate, dicalcium phosphate, sodium bicarbonate and mannan oligosaccharides (MOS).

Mix Backs Protein Plus evenly with the pigeons’ feed.

Many pigeon fanciers feed it two or three times each week during breeding and the moulting period. During the racing season it can be included one to three times per week depending on the demands placed on the birds.
