White Peas 20kg

Nutritional Benefits for Pigeons

• Moderate to High Protein Content (20-22%) – Supports muscle growth, recovery, and overall conditioning, making them ideal for racing and breeding pigeons.
• Easier to Digest than Blue Peas – Their softer texture allows for quicker digestion, reducing the risk of crop discomfort or sluggish digestion.
• Slow-Releasing Energy – Provides a steady source of energy that helps sustain pigeons during long flights and training.
• Rich in Essential Amino Acids – Supports feather quality, tissue repair, and muscle function, which is crucial during molting and racing periods.
• Good Source of Minerals – Contains phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium, essential for strong bones, muscle function, and metabolism.

Feeding Considerations

• Suitable for All Pigeon Types – Works well for racing, breeding, and young pigeons due to their balanced protein and digestibility.
• Best Fed in Mixes – Should be combined with energy-rich grains like maize and wheat to ensure a complete and balanced diet.
• Better Tolerance in Warmer Weather – Since white or yellow peas are not as heavy as blue peas, they can be fed more comfortably in warmer climates without causing overheating.
• Moderation is Key – While beneficial, excessive feeding of peas can slow digestion, so they should make up around 15-25% of the grain mix.

Why Pigeon Fanciers Use White or Yellow Peas

Many fanciers prefer white or yellow peas for their versatility and ease of digestion, making them a great addition to both racing and breeding diets. Their balanced protein content supports muscle strength without being too heavy on the digestive system.
