Pigeons instinctively work at a hard mineral stone, taking small amounts through the day, and the pot keeps the block off the droppings while a second refill block is ready for when the first is picked down. Vanrobaeys lists it in its pickblock, picking stone and grit range and recommends it through every phase of the loft year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMineral picking stone:\u003c\/strong\u003e A hard pickblock the birds can work at freely, supplementing the minerals in a grain diet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePot plus refill:\u003c\/strong\u003e The red pot holds the stone in place and a spare block is included, so you replace the stone rather than the whole set.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFor every season:\u003c\/strong\u003e Recommended during winter rest, the moult, racing and breeding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePicking stone for new fanciers:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vanrobaeys flags it as a starting supplement for anyone setting up a first loft.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbout Vanrobaeys:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vanrobaeys is a Belgian pigeon feed and supplement company whose range covers grain mixes, grit, minerals and the Winners conditioning line.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use It\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSet the pot on a clean, dry spot in the loft where the birds pass often but where droppings cannot fall into it, such as a low shelf or the floor near the grit tray. Leave it out permanently so pigeons can take what they need, and check it every few days; brush off dust and discard any stone that has been fouled. When the block is picked down to the pot, drop in the refill. Keep it available alongside a loose grit such as red stone and a calcium grit so hens and youngsters can choose between them. Store the refill block dry until you need it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: pickblock \/ picking stone mineral supplement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes: picking stone in a red pot plus one refill\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended for: winter and resting, moulting, racing, breeding, new fanciers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: mineral picking stone in a pot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecies: racing and fancy pigeons\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eStop by Garoppo’s Stone \u0026amp; Garden Center and Feed \u0026amp; Pet Supply to see it in person and pick one up, or schedule local delivery within our service area.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vanrobaeys","offers":[{"title":"Per Unit","offer_id":52722456559908,"sku":"49530","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0968\/5322\/9860\/files\/vanrobaeys-vanrobaeys-picking-stone-with-refill_f9b048b5-4922-45d1-8330-9f8b6036814c.png?v=1789657547","url":"https:\/\/garoppos.com\/products\/vanrobaeys-picking-stone-with-refill-pigeon-mineral-block","provider":"Garoppo's Stone \u0026 Garden Center and Feed \u0026 Pet Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
