Pigeon’s Healthcare

pigeon healthcare

pigeon healthcarePigeon’s healthcare and pigeon’s  nutrition is constantly evolving. This is due both to heightened awareness of the importance of pigeon’s nutrition and to increased research into pigeon’s and dove’s different needs. As with all other animals, birds need a proper balance of carbohydrates, proteins, fat, vitamins, minerals and water. Different species of birds often require different foods & nutrition.

Pigeon’s Nutrition is commonly neglected with pigeons and doves. Too often pigeons and dove’s owners assume they are feeding a proper diet to their pigeon or dove when in fact they are not! This is a common reason for many health problems. It is important to continually strive to improve your bird’s diet. This involves constantly educating yourself and a certain degree of common sense. It is not sufficient to feed a pigeon or dove just to maintain life; instead, your goal should be to help it thrive and flourish. Your bird’s health depends on how well it is fed.

Pigeons and doves eat a variety of grains, seeds, greens, berries, fruits, and will occasionally eat insects, snails and earthworms in the wild.

What You Should Feed Your Pigeons and Doves?

A well balanced diet must be maintained at all times. Please visit on Pigeons and Doves Healthcare  if encountering any problems with diet or the health of the bird.

Formulated pigeon seed diets are available. A commercial diet contains mixed seeds and grains, vegetables and some are enriched with brewer’s yeast plus vitamins and minerals. Different diet formulations exist for performance birds, resting birds and breeding birds.

Pigeons are susceptible to calcium deficiency from eating only seeds. Seeds should only be 50% of a balanced diet, never the entire diet. “Different diet formulations exist for performance birds, resting birds and breeding birds.”

Pellets should ideally represent approximately 50% of a pigeon’s diet.” Pellets have been developed to meet all your bird’s nutritional needs. Hand raised babies are the easiest to start on a pelleted diet. Pellets are the ideal diet, therefore you are encouraged to slowly wean seed eating birds onto a pelleted diet. Pellets should ideally represent approximately 50% of a pigeon’s diet. There are many good brands of pelleted foods in the market place.

Finely chopped vegetables and greens plus some fruit should be offered as part of the daily diet. Pale vegetables, with a high water composition (i.e. iceberg or head lettuce, celery) offer very little nutritional value. Fruits and vegetables must be washed thoroughly to remove chemicals. Cut them into manageable pieces depending on the size of the bird. It is not necessary to take the skin off. Offer fruits and vegetables in a separate dish. If your bird appears to develop a particular fancy for one food item, reduce its volume or stop feeding it temporarily to promote the eating of other foods.

As a general rule, any wholesome, nutritious food that you and your family eat your bird can eat. Follow the general guidelines discussed above and use your common sense. Some birds even enjoy a small amount of lean cooked meat, fish, egg or cheese occasionally. Dairy products should be consumed in moderation. It is common sense that junk food, chocolate, products containing caffeine and alcoholic beverages be avoided.

Treat your bird like a small child; offer a small piece of a variety of food items daily and never stop trying. A well balanced diet must be maintained at all times.

Importance of Water :

Fresh clean water must be available at all times. Depending on the quality of your tap water, you should always sanitize the water with water sanitizer Aquacure  . Dishes must be cleaned thoroughly every day with soap and water and finally washed with Viraclean.

 Important Vitamins ,Minerals, & Amino Acids  for Pigeon & Dove :

 It is easy for fanciers to be distracted by the plethora of supplements available for pigeons.  What needs to be said is that no blend of grains can supply all of the vitamins, minerals and amino acids pigeons require. When feeding a grain based diet, there is definite advantage in using either a fortified pellet or a good multivitamin mineral/amino acid supplement, made specifically for pigeons, from a reputable company, using veterinary knowledge. Amino Power is considered the best blend of 46 amino acids, vitamins & minerals for pigeon.

 Vitamins for Pigeon & Dove – What are they ?

Vitamins are chemical compounds that are natural components of food. Found in minute quantities, they are essential for normal metabolism and health. They are divided into six groups (A, B, C, D, E and K). Within these six main groups are several different sub-types. Each group has its own set of functions and when severely deficient in the diet, display their own set of characteristic deficiency symptoms. The effect on metabolism is proportional to the level of deficiency so that when deficiency is mild, the symptoms are vague and non-specific, such as poor performance or compromised health.

Vitamins are generally not made in the body in sufficient amounts to meet requirements and so must be taken in as a dietary source.

The six groups of vitamins are divided into two basic types. The water-soluble vitamins (B and C) are not stored in the body and so any deficiency in these tends quickly to have an effect. The fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E and K) are well stored in the liver and so daily intake is less critical. Growvit Power is considered the best multi-vitamins for pigeons and recommended by veterinarians who are specialized in pigeon health.

Vitamins – What do they do for pigeon’s health?

Vitamin A for Pigeon’s Healthcare:Vitamin A (Growvit -A) is necessary for pigeon’s healthy skin and mucus membranes, i.e. the lining of the mouth, sinus and cloaca, etc.

Vitamin B for Pigeon’s Healthcare:Vitamin B (Grow B-Plex) is actually a large group of 12 or more different compounds, eg thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), niacin (B3), choline (B4), pantothenic acid (B5), pyridoxine (B6), etc. These vitamins perform many vital functions for the pigeon. Being water-soluble, deficiency quickly develops if the birds are not eating.

Vitamin C for Pigeon’s Healthcare:Vitamin C (Electral Energy) is a metabolic regulator. In most species of seed-eating birds, including pigeons, vitamin C is synthesised in the liver and there is no advantage in supplementation unless the bird becomes debilitated and is no longer able to make enough vitamin C, especially if the liver is damaged.Birds can make their own vitamin C if they have access to light.

Vitamin D for Pigeon’s Healthcare: Vitamin D (Grow Cal D-3) is necessary for the absorption of calcium from the bowel into the body the pigeon.

Vitamin E for Pigeon’s Healthcare: Vitamin E (Grow E-Sel) regulates many of the normal metabolic processes within the cell.

Vitamin K for Pigeon’s Healthcare:Vitamin K is necessary for blood coagulation. These vitamins are found in green plants and can be produced by the normal bacteria in the pigeon’s bowel. It is in fact quite difficult to produce a vitamin K deficiency unless antibiotics have been overused and have killed all of the bacteria in the bowel or birds are prevented from eating their own droppings or probiotics are not used.

Points should be always remember while feeding pigeon or dove :

  • Always monitor the amount of food eaten every day by each bird.
  • Offer fresh water every day mixed with Aquacure.
  • Offer a variety of fresh foods every day.
  • Offer fresh fruits and vegetables every day
  • Clean all food and water dishes daily with Viraclean.
