Frequently Asked Questions

Why is barley removed from this mix?
Barley can be harder for some pigeons to digest, particularly during periods of high energy demand such as racing and breeding. Removing barley improves overall digestibility and ensures nutrients are absorbed more efficiently, supporting better performance and recovery.

Is this suitable for show pigeons?
Yes — the high protein content and quality ingredients make this mix suitable for show pigeons as well as racing and breeding birds. The balanced composition supports good feather condition and overall physical presentation.

Can I feed this year-round?
Mariman Standard Breeding & Racing without Barley is formulated for the breeding and racing seasons. During the moulting period, consider switching to a dedicated moult mix such as Versele-Laga Mariman Standard Mopulting to better match your birds’ off-season nutritional needs.

How should I store this feed?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and vermin. Keep the bag sealed or decant into an airtight bin to maintain freshness.
