Description
Every loft needs a treat the birds would fly home early for. Purgrain Candy 16.2% Pigeon Treat Mix from Albright's Mill is that reward — a great, nutritious treat containing very high caloric levels for optimum energy. The recipe reads like a pigeon's wish list: canary seed, white and red millet, rape seed, flax, safflower, and rice, finished with an orange extract coating that makes it irresistibly palatable. At 16.2% protein and a rich 15.5% fat, a small handful delivers concentrated energy and the oil seeds that put shine on a wing. Fanciers use Candy to trap-train young birds, settle new stock, reward race returns, and hand-tame breeders — because a treat only works when the birds truly want it. Triple-cleaned to the Sparkling Clean standard like every Purgrain product.
Key Features
- Very high caloric content: 15.5% fat from oil-rich small seeds for optimum energy.
- Orange extract coating: A scent and flavor birds recognize and rush to.
- Small-seed recipe: Canary seed, millets, rape, and flax — easy for birds of every age to eat quickly.
- Trap-training tool: The reward that teaches young birds to trap fast and old birds to stay tame.
- 16.2% protein: A treat that contributes real nutrition, not empty scratch.
- Sparkling Clean grains: Triple-cleaned, dust-free small seeds.
How to Use
Feed as a treat, not a ration — a teaspoon to a small handful per bird. Rattle the Candy can as birds trap after training tosses and races, sprinkle it in the loft to settle new arrivals, or use it to bring breeders to hand. Keep portions modest: at 15.5% fat, a little goes a long way, and overuse will put idle birds over condition. Store in a sealed container in a cool, dry place.
