The best French Cribs maize The French Cribs is a maize which has been dried naturally and slowly in the open air, which gives it a very high germination rate. Natural has been using this maize in its mixtures since 1967 and strongly recommends it to its customers.

Natural’s experts are indeed convinced that French Cribs maize offers a range of advantages: • It is selected on site and only the finest batches are chosen.

• It is stored and transported in optimum conditions.

• Its germination capacity is extremely high owing to the fact that it has dried in the open air, in the field, for six months.

• Guaranteed that the maize keeps all of its natural qualities which are necessary for the correct nutrition of racing pigeons.

We guarantee the same quality all year round.

The Natural Granen company is FCA* certified. *Feed Chain Alliance Because we’re always refining our mixtures, they are subject to changes.

Mixtures

FINESSE

Natural Finesse is known for being a modern feeding method with a large variety of balanced, tasty mixes.

Natural Finesse is based on the latest feed findings. This range is ideal for pigeon fanciers who prefer a simple but efficient feeding method.

The Natural Finesse system and the Natural Finesse mixes have been tested by many pigeon fanciers in several top lofts. We have compiled the Natural Finesse mixes based on our knowledge and experience of the nutritional needs of pigeons during the breeding, moulting and rest periods, as well as the sporting season.

Each local market has specific products and habits. In an increasingly global world, anyone can benefit from this knowledge. The result is a wider range from which the pigeon fancier can make the appropriate choice for their pigeon, taking the season, necessity and personal insight in consideration.

The current compositions are also enriched with both burgundy and black maize, which is very beneficial for the health and performance of the pigeon. They are rich in anti-oxidants that benefit the best recovery after exertion. Lab analyses back these numbers up: burgundy and black maize contain up to 350% more of these all-natural health-promoting support nutrients than regular corn. Finesse ensures your pigeons can benefit from this know-how!

Breeding You should take the following into account when feeding pigeons during the breeding season: The only way to guarantee strong youngsters is to ensure the breeding pigeons are given the best preparation before pairing, and then to provide them with the proper care during the breeding season. A balanced diet is one of the most important ingredients to ensure the best results from breeding.

We advise giving Natural Finesse Breeding from ten days before pairing. It is also advisable from that moment to give the breeding pigeons Naturamine+ alternated with Kolombavit in their drinking water for at least two days a week.

If the breeding pigeons are cared for in this way, they will lay eggs without problems and pass on their best qualities to their young. During the breeding period, it is important to give them Vitamineral, Grit and Picking Stone every day. Finesse Mineral Mix is a good alternative and is a total package of minerals and vitamins in one product.

Thanks to the highly varied composition of Natural Finesse Breeding, and the small form factor of the ingredients, this feed is digested perfectly. This ensures the pigeons receive the right dose of proteins necessary to breed successfully.

After the breeding pigeons have switched from pigeon milk to grain feed, and the cock begins to take an interest in the hen again, mix Garlic Oil or X’tra Oil into the Natural Finesse Breeding and dry the mixture with Vitaminor or NutriPowder+. Wait about an hour before feeding the pigeons to allow the mixture to dry.

Feed young pigeons Finesse Light in combination with Natural Finesse Breeding from three weeks after weaning. Add up to 33% of Performance 20 into the mixes. This concentrate is rich in proteins, vitamins and minerals. Both the breeding pigeons and the youngsters will benefit from this. These proteins also ensure optimal growth of the young birds. Useful info: 25 days after hatching, the youngsters are already 100 times heavier! Feed Natural Finesse Breeding from weaning until the end of May. The youngsters are subject to a special type of stress. The feed given to young pigeons should be switched from Natural Finesse Breeding to Finesse Youngsters from the beginning of June.

Ensure the drinking water is changed daily to ensure it is of the best quality. By acidifying it slightly, you can avoid bacteriological pollution and stimulate the intestinal flora of the pigeon. Aqua Care can be combined with Naturaline without any problems whatsoever.

Racing You should take the following into account when feeding pigeons during the racing season: A. Fast recovery To recover quickly after the race, widowers or hens are first given one meal supplemented with Nutri Powder+. This Spirulina-enriched powder contains easily digestible proteins, amino acids, lipids and carbohydrates. Add Kolombasol or Electrolit and Naturamine+ to the drinking water so the pigeons can recover quickly and their muscles remain in top condition. Only muscles working optimally can absorb and release energy.

B. Load the muscles with energy See the feeding schedules linked to the flight distances. Natural offers 3 specific sports mixes within the Finesse range: “Sport, Sprint & Marathon”. Use this in conjunction with “Light & Depurative” after returning home from a flight. And use “Wizard & Energy” as preparation for the next race.

These easily-digestible sports mixes give the pigeon all the energy it needs. This is thanks to the small seed sizes and four different top-quality maizes: French cribs, bordeaux, popcorn and black maize. The bordeaux and black maizes are rich in anti-oxidants, which translates into better cell protection and faster recovery of the muscles after exertion.

The ideal balance between cereals and seeds in the Natural Finesse mixes guarantees high absorption, as long as you use it up to the very last race.

Moisten the feed with Garlic Oil or X’tra Oil during the second half of the week. This product contains 10 types of oil, vitamin E and lecithin. As a result, the ingredients containing fat in this mixture are more quickly converted into as much energy as possible.

Then dry the mixture with Vitaminor brewer’s yeast. Vitaminor, which is rich in natural B vitamins, proteins and trace elements, will improve the condition of the pigeons.

After all, Finesse Wizard is an energy-rich mix. It contains more than 25% fat to give the pigeon an extra energy boost. Pigeons have a fat metabolism. This means that they get most of their energy from fats. Fat is the most important fuel for a pigeon’s metabolism and the main energy source for the animal’s pectoral muscles.

The right fatty acids also play a crucial role in building the general condition and resistance of pigeons. This energy type can be released into the pigeon’s body very quickly when it needs a quick “energy boost”. This is important for short, intense exertion such as when the pigeon takes off after release, or when it climbs, lands, dodges obstacles and accelerates.

Why does Finesse Wizard & Energy contain so many sunflower seeds and kardi? Kardi and hulled sunflower seeds are not only rich in easily-digestible, high-quality proteins, they also contain a lot of oil, phosphorus and many other vitamins.

C. Healthy pigeons Healthy pigeons perform better. But keeping pigeons healthy does not mean filling them with medication. It is better to maintain the pigeons’ natural resistance by supplementing their feed with simple nutritional supplements. The Natural range offers a wide choice: • Bronchial Care : an aromatic herbal elixir that opens the airways to get more oxygen to the muscles.

• Kolombasol : contains liquid electrolytes for an easy, complete recovery, and is enriched with L-carnitine for optimal fat burning.

• Naturaline: a concentrated extract of fifteen different plants and herbs to promote the general resistance of the pigeon.

• Naturamine+ : a tonic full of minerals, trace elements and important amino acids.

• Digestion Care: an aromatic herbal elixir that helps with typical intestinal or excreta problems, often caused by parasites. Strengthens the general immunity by having a positive effect on the intestinal flora and the inhibition of the development of intestinal parasites.

Moulting/Rest Take the following into account when feeding pigeons during the moulting and resting season: Moulting is a difficult period for pigeons. After the uninterrupted exertions of the racing season, the pigeon’s body needs to rest, but pigeons replace all their feathers during this period. As a result, they need a lot of essential amino acids so they can grow a new set of feathers.

Feathers mainly contain mineralised proteins such as keratin, which is rich in sulphur. This is why pigeons need all the necessary nutrients to meet these needs. Cheap mixes do not have a balanced composition or contain sufficient amino acids such as methionine and cysteine. The percentage of small seeds, sunflower seeds and carbohydrates provides the correct amount of these crucial amino acids.

A good moult is the basis for good continuation to breeding. It is important the pigeons are in a healthy condition when they start moulting. Finesse Moulting contains the ideal ratio of nutrients your pigeon requires. After moulting, switch to Finesse Winter & Rest.

And for silky soft feathers, we recommend the following Natural by-products: • Naturamine+: a tonic full of minerals, trace elements and important amino acids.

• Naturaline: a concentrated extract of fifteen different plants and herbs.

• Kolombavit: a highly concentrated multivitamin complex with exceptional properties.

• Garlic Oil & X’tra Oil: essential fatty acids cannot be produced by the pigeon itself and must therefore be provided as a supplement. These fatty acids guarantee correct cell functioning and stimulate hormone production. Ideal for building up condition and immunity.

• Vitaminor: brewer’s yeast from wort, cereals and sugar derivatives. 100% natural, without additives. This will ensure the nutritional values of all natural ingredients are fully preserved. Rich in proteins, amino acids and vitamin B. • Choline Care: aromatic herbal elixir with sulphur-based amino acids for a purifying and degreasing effect on the liver. Ideal for the good development of the feathering.

Stimulates appetite and metabolism.

• Performance 20: do not forget to provide an extra boost with proteins, vitamins and trace elements.

More color brings more quality!

Black maize is new to the FINESSE mixtures, which is very beneficial for the health and performance of the pigeon. Dark-colored corn is extremely rich in antioxidants that aid the smooth recovery of efforts.

Bordeaux maize is introduced in the popular MAXI mixes alongside the yellow French cribs maize or the yellow Argentine popcorn maize and the orange maize. These not only bring more color but also more intrinsic qualities.

Lab analyzes back up these numbers: Bordeaux and especially black corn contain up to 350% more of these all-natural health-promoting and supporting nutrients than regular corn.

Your pigeons and yourself can only benefit from it!

Benefits of bordeaux & black corn • are particularly energetic • have an ideal protein-fat ratio • contain a large amount of anti-oxidants This translates into • better immunity-building • better cell protection • faster muscle recovery after exertion And results in • healthier pigeons • with better endurance • that perform better

Show pigeons come in all shapes and sizes. It is advisable to choose a good feed according to both the nature of the show pigeon and the desired activity.

Of course, there are different needs according to the season. The need for protein is higher during breeding and moulting season than during the rest of the year.

A show pigeon will also benefit more from a lighter feed than a performance pigeon such as tumblers, which need a more energetic feed.

Natural Fancy pigeon mixture without maize – light • Maintenance mix without maize suitable for all show pigeon breeds.

• Recommended especially for show pigeons that benefit more from a light diet.

Natural Small Seeds

A mixture of plate millet, linseed, rapeseed, clipped oats rice, hempseed* and canary seed We are convinced that small seeds, when given in moderation, play a role in safeguarding their form.

Some pigeon fanciers claim that small seeds overstimulate pigeons and therefore tend to shorten the period in which they remain in top form for races.

We are convinced, on the contrary, that small seeds, when given in moderation, play a role in safeguarding their form since they constitute an energizing nutrient supplement capable of developing form in several respects.

If after their morning and evening training sessions, the widowers discover a pinch of small seeds in their nest box, they will develop the habit of returning more rapidly.

Also available in larger packaging as seen on page 27. *where hempseed is allowed.

Instructions for use A small tea-spoonful of small seeds per day per pigeon during the racing season will enhance the condition of the pigeons and their resistance to temperature variations.

Natural Naturaline

Concentrated extract of selected plants and greens The component plants and greens of Natural Naturaline have been carefully selected for their beneficial effects on the respiratory, digestive and urinary tracts.

Natural Naturaline is a decoction concocted from some fourteen of selected plants and greens. Natural Naturaline also contains elements that enhance the general resistance of the pigeon. In addition to its active ingredients, this decoction contains many other substances that appear to contribute to the specific action of the treatments since they can accelerate or slow up their assimilation by the digestive system.

Natural Naturaline keeps pH-values naturally at the proper level. The component plants and greens of Natural Naturaline have been carefully selected for their beneficial effects on the respiratory, digestive and urinary tracts.

That is why pigeons that regularly receive Natural Naturaline in their drinking water present a rosy skin, indicating that their blood is pure and free from toxins. Their plumage becomes glossy and displays a unique rich, creamy smoothness. Moreover, the pigmentation and lustre of the eye are heightened.

These external signs reflect an optimal health, which enables the pigeons to better resist disease and improve their performance.

Instructions for use The use of Natural Naturaline is particularly advisable during the racing season, the moulting season and in case of watery droppings caused by adenovirosis and paramyxovirosis.

DOSAGE One to two dessert-spoons of Natural Naturaline per litre of drinking water.

MAINTENANCE SCHEME RACING SEASON During a 10-day diet Natural Naturaline is mixed with the drinking water at the beginning of the racing season. After this, twice weekly after the birds return home from a race.

MOULTING SEASON One or two days per week.

IN CASE OF WATERY DIARRHOEA Caused by adenovirosis and paramyxovirosis: mix Natural Naturaline daily with the drinking water as long as the symptoms persist.

RECENTLY WEANED YOUNG BIRDS Mix Natural Naturaline to the drinking water for ten days.

Natural Electrolit

A mixture of electrolytes and glucose for rapid recovery after a flight It is very important to give pigeons Natural Electrolit on their return from a race.

The heightened metabolism and substantial exertion of the pigeon in flight result in numerous waste products. In the elimination of urea, uric and phosphoric acid, lactic and carbonic acid, mainly sodium ions are consumed and elimination is therefore dependent on the quantity of these ions available to the pigeon. Water loss is also appreciable during flight. For all these reasons it is important to give pigeons Natural Electrolit on their return from a race.

This energy-drink effectively compensates water and electrolyte depletion and progressively restores the acid-base equilibrium. It also represents an immediate energy gain (glucose), which markedly shortens the recovery period.

Diseases such as adenovirosis and paramyxovirosis cause diarrhoea resulting in a major loss of minerals and water loss. Natural Electrolit prevents dehydration caused by diarrhoea and accelerates the recovery from a disease.

Natural Electrolit can also be mixed with Natural Tea and Natural Naturaline.

Instructions for use DOSAGE • 240 g packing: 1 bag of Electrolit per litre of drinking water.

• 750 g packing: 1 measure of Electrolit per litre of drinking water.

MAINTENANCE SCHEME ON THE RETURN OF A RACE Mix Natural Electrolit in the drinking water and leave it at their disposal until after the evening meal.

THE DAY OF BASKETING The pigeons that take part in long-distance and very long distance races are under way for several days and nights.

It is essential that these pigeons are basketed with sufficient reserves of electrolytes (body minerals). This is why we advise to mix Natural Electrolit to the drinking water on the day of basketing.

IN CASE OF SEVERE, WATERY DIARRHOEA Administer Natural Electrolit until the droppings return to normal again.

Natural Kolombasol

Energy drink with extra minerals, trace elements, and necessary amino acids Promotes quick recovery after a flight or intense training by removing waste products and replenishing the used minerals.

Sporting exertion can weigh heavily on a pigeon’s constitution. After returning home, the pigeon’s constitution can benefit from an additional application of all the necessary nutrients, extra sugars, and minerals. Compensation for the loss of moisture must be balanced, without leading to additional loss of nutrients or trace elements.

Natural Kolombasol ensures a smooth recovery and full recovery after every exertion, which is crucial for long-term performance. With L-carnitine for optimal fat burning, energy supply, and to prevent muscle acidification. Ideal for weak pigeons to prevent dehydration due to diarrhoea.

Also a welcome addition for breeding pigeons, which desperately need these electrolytes to compensate for the loss of minerals during egg laying.

Instructions for use DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION 15 ml per litre of drinking water.

PERIOD • Always start with a cure 2 to 3 days a week.

• Increase to 25 ml during periods of breeding, as well as during excessive consumption of minerals or periods with thin manure.

• During the racing season – upon returning home and after a flight, then increase to 25 ml the following day.

Natural Garlic Oil

For improved condition and health of the racing pigeon Garlic is a plant that has been known and used for thousands of years for its exceptional properties. It stimulates gastric secretion and prevents fermentation and digestive disorders.

What is more, it improves the blood circulation and affords protection of the airways and protection against worms.

Most pigeon fanciers are familiar with the therapeutic action of garlic and many are having their pigeons benefit from it. It is for this reason that some of them routinely put a clove of garlic in the pigeon’s drinking water. This method is not effective as the virtues of the plant are essentially lost on the bird.

Natural, the leading pigeon feed specialist, has had dieticians and veterinary surgeons study and solve this problem. Hence, the development of Natural Garlic Oil. Natural Garlic Oil is a product in a class of its own giving pigeons the full benefit of garlic. Natural Garlic Oil is composed of pure garlic extracts and refined soya oil, rich in linoleic acid.

Instructions for use DURING THE BREEDING AND MOULTING SEASON Mix Natural Garlic Oil and Natural Vitaminor twice or three times per week with the daily ration of grains.

30 drops of Natural Garlic Oil per kilo of grains.

DURING THE RACING SEASON Mix Natural Garlic Oil and Natural Vitaminor with a depurative or diet mix on the day of the return from a race and the following day.

30 drops of Natural Garlic Oil per kg of grains.

AS A PREPARATION BEFORE A LONG DISTANCE RACE The soya oil in the Natural Garlic Oil is the ideal substance to accumulate fat reserves in the pigeon’s body.

We advise: 4 to 6 days before basketing (depending on the distance) one drop of Natural Garlic Oil per pigeon, to be mixed with the daily grain ration, adding Natural Vitaminor.

Natural X’tra oil

Energy-rich oil based on 10 different oils Top performance requires energy: the fats necessary for this energy conversion are essential for this. Balanced blend of omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids for optimal performance from breeding to moulting.

The pigeon cannot produce these essential fatty acids itself, and they must therefore be supplemented through food. These fatty acids guarantee correct cell functioning and stimulate hormone production. Ideal for building up condition and immunity.

This unique combination of peanut oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil, rapeseed oil, olive oil, linseed oil, wheat germ oil, corn oil, oregano oil and liver oil provides the ideal balance of useful fats tailor-made for the pigeon’s muscle building.

Enriched with lecithin (converts fat into energy) and vitamins A, D3, and E (fertility).

Ideal in combination with Natural Vitaminor brewer’s yeast or Nutri Powder+.

Instructions for use DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION Moisten the grains with 5 ml of Natural X’tra Oil per kilogram of grains.

PERIOD • During breeding periods – from 14 days before mating until after laying the eggs.

• For young pigeons – up to 2 times per week.

• During the sports season – up to 3 times per week (1 to 2 days before basketing).

• During the moulting season – up to 2 times per week.

Natural Bronchial Care To support a healthy respiratory tract and for optimal lung capacity

Aromatic herbal elixir; contains eucalyptus, menthol, and echinacea. Has a soothing effect and reduces the viscosity and adhesion of mucus in the respiratory system. Clears the nose and helps the bird breathe more freely through an improved oxygen supply. Supports general immunity, vitality, and endurance.

The amount of oxygen that goes to the muscles is directly related to the strength and endurance of the pigeon. This endurance depends on the aerobic breakdown of lipids, a process that ensures that energy is constantly available during longer flights.

Instructions for use DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION 5 to 10 ml per litre of drinking water PERIOD • For 2 to 3 days after a race • During periods of difficulty in breathing • A course of 5 to 10 days is recommended in preparation for the racing season

Natural Aqua Care

Herbal enriched drinking water promoter Acidifying and disinfecting drinking water provides positive stimulation for metabolism and digestion while strengthening useful intestinal flora.

Acidifying the drinking water is essential. Microbial pathogens often originate in a contaminated drinking bowl. Simply acidifying the water to a level of 3,8 to 4,5 pH avoids this potential contamination. Unlike ordinary apple cider vinegar, Natural Aqua Care can find its way deep into the pigeon’s digestive system where it is more useful. An acidic environment is created in the crop, stomach, and intestines, which greatly reduces the risk of infections.

At the same time, the natural digestive enzymes in the intestines are positively stimulated, and the healthy microbial intestinal balance creates optimal immunity.

Squabs certainly benefit, as their intestinal flora is still in full development.

Contains traces of zinc and copper for a more efficient metabolism, and oregano, cinnamon, and spearmint essential oils for extra protection against bacterial pathogens.

Instructions for use DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION 10 ml per litre of drinking water.

PERIOD All year round.

Natural Naturamine +

Tonic of minerals, trace elements and important amino acids Natural Naturamine+ improves the physical condition of the pigeon during the sports season. Natural Naturamine+ is an ideal supplement during the breeding and moulting season. It’s essential to administer extra minerals and trace elements during these two periods.

If you use Natural Naturamine+, your breeding season is guaranteed to be a success; you will get healthy young birds; your pigeons will be in top condition; and they will moult perfectly.

The mineral salts and trace elements in the liquid form of Natural Naturamine+ are easily tolerated and absorbed, in contrast to solids. Only a very small percentage of the nutrients in solids is absorbed, which means the positive effect is much smaller.

By adding important amino acids such as lysine (important for the growth of the pigeon) and methionine (for better cell function in the muscles), and thanks to its unique composition, Natural Naturamine+ is a very efficient tonic for maintaining the physical condition and general health of the pigeon.

• Improves physical condition • Promotes growth • Improves liver function through the glutathione system (detoxification and antioxidation) • Stimulates the production of haemoglobin in the red blood cells • Optimal use of the trace elements due to better absorption in the form of chelates

Instructions for use Always start with a cure for 5 consecutive days.

Dosage: 5 ml per litre of drinking water.

• During breeding periods: up to 3 times per week from mating until after weaning of the young.

• During the sports season: 1 time per week when returning home after a flight.

• During the moulting period: 2 times per week.

Natural Digestion Care

To support digestion and healthy intestinal flora Aromatic herbal elixir; contains wormwood and thyme. Helps with typical intestinal or excretory problems, often caused by parasites Strengthens the general immunity by having a positive effect on the intestinal flora and the inhibition of the development of intestinal parasites.

A good balance of the intestinal flora is essential for a healthy, high-performance pigeon. A disturbance of this balance, which causes pathogenic bacteria to increase, can necessitate the use of medicines, but these are also harmful to the good intestinal bacteria. Such intervention also disrupts the natural development process of the immune system. The regular use of Natural Digestion Care contributes to the proper development of a healthy immune system. The direct result is lower incidence of disease and a higher level of energy necessary for the development of muscles and condition.

Instructions for use DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION 5 to 10 ml per litre of drinking water PERIOD • For 2 to 3 days after a race • Twice a week or a course of treatment of 5 days in the case of flat faeces • A course of 5 days is also recommended for squabs during weaning • Also ideal during or after a treatment against intestinal infections

Natural Naturavit

A Multi-Vitamin Liquid Complex Natural Naturavit allows a rapid and complete absorption of vitamins by the pigeon. Regular use of Natural Naturavit protects the pigeon against avitaminosis and will result in maximum racing performances.

The composition of Natural Naturavit, being based on the most recent scientific research, guarantees that the pigeon will receive a balanced supply of the entire range of vitamins, including the following, essential ones: • vitamin B1, which permits the degradation of fatty acids and carbohydrates.

• The heightened metabolism of the pigeon, particularly during the racing season, highlights the enormous importance of this vitamin.

• vitamin D, which plays an important part in the regulation of the phosphocalcium metabolism. This vitamin is necessary in the formation of the skeleton.

• vitamin A, is essential for the growth of young pigeons and has anti-infectious and anti-parasitic effect.

• vitamin E, which is indispensable to optimal muscle and nerve function with a positive influence on fertility.

• vitamin K, is anti-haemorrhagic. The diet of pigeons kept in aviaries should be enriched with this vitamin.

Natural Naturavit allows a rapid and complete absorption of vitamins by the pigeon. Regular use of Natural Naturavit protects the pigeon against avitaminosis and will result in maximum racing performances.

Natural Naturavit is a multi-vitamin complex of outstanding quality and stability.

Instructions for use DURING THE BREEDING AND MOULTING SEASON One measure of Natural Naturavit per 2 litres of drinking water during 1 day per week.

DURING THE RACING SEASON One measure of Natural Naturavit per litre of drinking water, preferably two days before the day of basketing.

After a difficult flight it is advisable to mix one measure of Natural Naturavit per litre of drinking water, the day after the pigeons returned.

AFTER ANY TREATMENT OF A DISEASE After any treatment it is important to administer vitamins to the pigeons for three days.

In this case one measure of Natural Naturavit must be given per litre of drinking water.

Natural Kolombavit

All the vitamins a pigeon needs during the breeding, sports and moulting season.

Vitamins are a vital supplement to the diet to keep essential bodily functions and biological processes going.

Grain mixtures, however balanced they may be, never contain all the necessary amounts of vitamins a pigeon actually needs. This is why supplements must be provided in the correct balance – for general health, trouble-free recovery, good breeding, and uncomplicated moulting.

Natural Kolombavit contains extra folic acid to stimulate both immunity and endurance, and extra choline to support the liver’s breakdown of lactic acid and waste products.

Evolved formula of the well-known Naturavit.

Instructions for use DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION 5 ml per 2 litres of drinking water.

PERIOD • Once a week throughout the year.

• During the sports season, the second day before basketing, and the day after returning home: 5 ml per litre of drinking water.

• After treatment for an illness: 2-3 days: 5 ml per litre of drinking water.

Natural Choline Care For a purifying effect on the liver and optimal moulting

Aromatic herbal elixir; contains turmeric and milk thistle. With sulphur-containing amino acids for a purifying effect that also reduces fat levels in the body. Ideal for the good development of the feathering. Stimulates appetite and metabolism. Has a positive effect on energy and endurance. With extra B vitamins.

The excretion of harmful substances from the body is essential to maintain good health. After heavy efforts and loads, the liver must be stripped of fats and this waste.

Sulphur-containing amino acids contribute to this and stimulate this function. In addition, these amino acids are required for the production of keratin, a necessary building block for feathers and skin. The moulting period is a stressful period for pigeons where an extra boost is very useful because this is where the foundations are laid for the next breeding and sport season.

Instructions for use DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION 5 to 10 ml per litre of drinking water PERIOD • 2 times a week • During periods of breeding, moulting, or heavy exercise • Also ideal after a course of antibiotics for 5 consecutive days

Natural Tea with 16 herbs A blend of 16 herbs

Extensive research has led to the conclusion that Natural Tea facilitates the conditioning of pigeons in a wholly natural manner during the racing season.

It even enhances that condition. Natural Tea also ensures rapid recovery after an effort.

Instructions for use DOSAGE One generous dessert-spoonful of Natural Tea per litre of boiling water.

Allow to infuse for 10 minutes with the lid on the pot.

Filter, allow to cool and give to the pigeons as a drink.

MAINTENANCE SCHEME BEFORE THE RACING SEASON To enhance the pigeon’s condition, give tea daily 8 to 10 days before the first race. After this treatment, their plumage will be silkier and the pigeons will swell yet become lighter - a sign of optimum blood irrigation.

DURING THE RACING SEASON On their return from a race, give the pigeons tea. If the pigeons have flown for many hours in hot weather, then you should give the pigeons Natural Tea to which Natural Electrolit has been added in order to compensate for the loss of minerals. Tea alone can still be given as a drink on the day if pigeon returns from a race as purification of the organism is desirable.

DURING THE MOULTING PERIOD The pigeon must cope with a substantial energy demand and top condition is crucial to a perfect moult. Natural Tea, given 1-2 days per week during this period, facilitates the optimal regeneration of the plumage.

Natural Vitamineral Vitaminised minerals

Natural Vitamineral contains all the minerals necessary for a balanced diet.

Natural launched Natural Vitamineral in 1952. By doing so Natural became the first company to produce a special vitaminised mineral mix for racing pigeons.

Natural Vitamineral won the confidence of Belgian pigeon fanciers in no time as it meant a breakthrough in the feeding habits of the racing pigeon. Natural Granen has constantly improved the composition of Natural Vitamineral. Natural Vitamineral contains all the minerals necessary for a balanced diet.

In addition to essential minerals, Natural Vitamineral contains vitamins A, D and E, which are required for the assimilation of these minerals. These vitamins have a positive influence on the growth of the youngsters and the fertility.

Natural Vitamineral is a product that pigeons need all year round. Vitamineral should therefore always be present in the pigeon loft. The pigeons will only eat it out of real physiological need.

There will be marked consumption when they return from a race and during breeding and moulting. The breeders ingest up to 650 mg of calcium per day when they nourish their youngsters.

Natural Vitamineral accelerates the pigeons growth and enhances their resistance.

Instructions for use Always leave some Natural Vitamineral in a small gallipot the pigeons have easy access to.

Natural Vitaminor

Brewer’s yeast. A 100% natural product, rich in amino acids and B-vitamins Natural Vitaminor is a brewer’s yeast grown on wort, grains and sugar derivatives.

The raw material is only obtained from breweries. It is dried thoroughly and prepared with great care for detail without the addition of any chemical agents.

It fully preserves the nutritional qualities of each of its natural constituents.

It is a 100% natural product rich in amino-acids, vitamins and organic mineral elements that are completely assimilated by the pigeon’s organism.

Natural Vitaminor provides a complex of natural B-vitamins, which are important for the metabolism of sugars, proteins and fats and therefore in the physiology of the racing effort.

B-vitamins have therefore a positive influence on the physical efforts which the pigeon needs to produce.

Natural Vitaminor is a growth factor in the diet of young pigeons and enhances their resistance to various diseases and stress.

It is an established fact that Natural Vitaminor has a very favourable effect on the fertility of the breeding pairs and on the vitality of the youngsters.

Instructions for use DOSAGE Mix a generous dessert-spoonful of Natural Vitaminor or the quantity in the can lid with 1 kg of grains.

For optimum results moisten the grains with Natural Garlic Oil, or lemon juice or water to ensure a better adherence of Natural Vitaminor to the grains.

MAINTENANCE SCHEME DURING THE BREEDING AND MOULTING SEASON Add Natural Vitaminor at least twice weekly to the ration of grain.

BEFORE THE RACING SEASON 10-day diet during which Natural Vitaminor is added to the ration of grain to stimulate the pigeons’ physical condition.

DURING THE RACING SEASON It is advisable to add Natural Vitaminor to the depurative mixture on the day they return from the race and on the following day to make sure they recover quickly from the efforts.

AFTER ANY TREATMENT OF A DISEASE It is also advisable during and after a treatment against trichomonas, worms, coccidiosis and other infections to give Natural Vitaminor.

Natural Protection Powder - Oral For preventive protection against parasites

Aromatic herbal powder to increase resistance to external factors; contains fenugreek, citronella, rhodiola, and astragalus.

Brings about an intense and lasting odour change so that the pigeons are no longer attractive to ectoparasites. Supports the immune system.

The presence of poultry red mites in the dovecote has harmful consequences. The stress, irritation, and blood loss will cause the pigeon to underperform and be more susceptible to infections and diseases. The addition of Protection Powder – Oral to the feed makes the pigeons’ blood indigestible for poultry red mites. This stops the mites from reproducing. An infestation of poultry red mites is best combated by good dovecote hygiene, on the one hand, and a combined use of both food supplements and pesticides, on the other.

Instructions for use DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION • Start with 10 to 15 g per kilo of feed for 2 weeks • Afterwards, a maintenance dose of 5 to 10 g is sufficient • Mix well and uniformly; ideal in combination with garlic oil • Maximum effect in combination with Natural Protection Spray – Area

Natural Short Tobacco Stalks The ideal nest material

The Natural Short Tobacco Stalks are a particularly suitable nesting material, pigeons like to use to build their nest.

The nesting plays an important part in the relationship between the male and the female on the one hand and in the attachment of a couple to their nest on the other hand. It is evident that suitable nesting material enhances the breeding results. Moreover the Natural Short Tobacco Stalks are a natural and efficient means to protect the breeding pairs and their youngsters against external parasites (red mite, feather mite and ticks). All this has a favourable effect on the breeding results.

The Natural Short Tobacco Stalks are a natural product that is easy to use. Just make the Natural Tobacco Stalks readily available to the pigeons when they are building their nest.

Natural Short Tobacco Stalks are also ideally suited as floorcovering in baskets.

Natural Granulated Floor Covering Anti-coccidiosis for improved hygiene in the loft

For the pigeon fanciers with only a limited amount of time to spend on their loft, the Natural Granulated Floorcovering is the ideal help.

The Natural Granulated Floorcovering is a natural product consisting of lava drawn from the subsoil.

The treatment and the granulation of this particularly porous substance offer it an exceptional absorbing power: 1 kg of granules can easily absorb 1 litre of water.

Thanks to this the Natural Granulated Floorcovering guarantees perfect hygiene in the loft. When the pigeon’s droppings fall on the granules, they dry in no time, which stops the contamination cycle by parasites.

The use of Natural Granulated Floorcovering practically stops maturation of the oocysts of coccidiosis and of the eggs of the ascarids. Moreover, the granules absorb the smell of the droppings.

When small birds eject liquid droppings, some granules can be strewn around the nestbowls to absorb the humidity and the odours. The Natural Granulated Floorcovering maintains its absorbing capacity for a very long time, which makes it economic to use. It can stay in the loft for one year provided it is raked weekly.

When the granules and droppings are removed from the loft they can be used as an excellent fertilizer in the vegetable and flower garden.

The Natural Granulated Floorcovering is harmless to pigeons. It is the ideal formula to keep your loft dry and clean. Young birds love to lay down in Natural Granulated Floorcovering. Their droppings dry quickly and their feet are always clean.

Natural Granulated Floorcovering - a bag of 20 kg covers 1,5m2

Instructions for use Spread the Natural Granulated Floor Covering equally over the floor of the pigeon loft.

Natural Bath Salt

For improved hygiene of the feathers Natural Bath Salt is a highly quality product aimed at satisfying the most demanding pigeon fancier.

The raw materials used in its production are the same as those used in bath salts for human consumption.There will not be any blue or yellow tingeing, as no chemical colouring is used in its composition and only natural pine extracts are used.

Natural Bath Salt gives a soft, smooth plumage and rids the epidermis of any flakiness (dandruff ) without irritating the skin. It tones up and stimulates the organism when administered in a cold bath.

However, it relaxes the muscles and accelerates the recovery process at the return of races if the bath is warm.

It is thus the ideal product for pigeon fanciers used to give their pigeons a warm bath when they return from races.

Its natural disinfecting action provides a good body hygiene and rids the plumage of vermin.

We therefore recommend you add Natural Bath Salt to the bath water once or twice a month during moulting as it is important for the growth of new feathers not be disturbed by parasites. This is particularly important during the moulting period as the tonic effect of the Natural Bath Salt stimulates blood circulation and helps the moulting of the downfeathers. Natural Bath Salt efficiently contributes to the health of the new plumage.

During the racing season, the regular use of Natural Bath Salt will keep the feathers glossy and smooth. At their return from a difficult race we recommend you add the contents of half a lid of Natural Bath Salt to a bucket filled with warm water and immerse the pigeons one by one for one minute while lightly massaging their pectoral muscles.

Instructions for use DOSAGE One capful of Natural Bath Salt for 20 litres of bathing water.

DURING THE MOULTING SEASON Add Natural Bath Salt to the bath water once or twice a month.

DURING THE RACING SEASON At their return from a difficult race we recommend you add the contents of half a lid of Natural Bath Salt to a bucket filled with warm water and immerse the pigeons one by one for one minute while lightly massaging their pectoral muscles.
