GARLIC:
1. Garlic is an incredible natural antibiotic. It is the allicin that is the key ingredient to purify the bloodstream and build up the immune system, maintains beautiful feathering & white wattle. It is a natural anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and anti-inflammatory. (They will not fuss about the taste of the garlic if you use no more then 1 organic clove of garlic per gallon of fresh water). If they fuss about it, buy the Now brand soft gel capsules and give one to each bird down the throat every few days.

GOING LIGHT
With this disease the flesh will waste away and the pigeon will look
sick and have diarrhea. This is a symptom of another problem, consult
someone for help in curing this. Rehydrate the bird and then feed with
foods that are easy to digest or feed with baby bird formula.

Annual harvest
An important consideration in the feeding of grain is the
annual harvest. Seeds grow in spring and are harvested once a year, leading to
a cycle of progressively older seeds until the next harvest. At some time
during the year, at least a portion of the seeds are one year old or older. The
nutrients that are most affected by aging are the vitamins, which lose activity
owing to oxidation and fats, which become rancid. This aging process can lead
to a reduced nutrient concentration. In this way, the level of many other
micronutrients becomes reduced with time. This reduction can be limited by
reducing temperature and oxygen in the storage environment. This can be
achieved by filling bins to the brim with grain before sealing the lids with
tape and storing the whole drum in a cool place. Often, despite these measures,
micronutrient levels become low. To guard against deficiency, a complete
water-soluble multivitamin drink can be made available to the birds
periodically (eg Multivite Plus) and pink mineral should be always available.

Grit
Pigeons have different digestive system than mammals. Pigeons don't have teeth that allows for maximum ingestion of food in a short time. So, pigeons have to eat sand, stones, oyster shell, salt or grit to break down and process the food they eat. Grit is a mixture of oyster shell, minerals, salts, stones and charcoal which they used to process their food. The hens that are getting ready to lay eggs especially need grit to increase calcium level in their body to create stronger egg shell. I give my pigeons red grit which they love to eat as a dessert after I feed them. Red cross grit is most often found at a feed supply store, it contains crushed oyster shells and is a good source of calcium. The hens that are getting ready to lay eggs especially need grit to increase calcium level in their body to create stronger egg shell. You can introduce pigeon grit to young birds, when the bird is older and eating grain on its own. You can also add some sea salt to your grit, if you see your birds make a mess by spreading grit all over the floor.
