Dr. Colin Walker, a veterinarian who races pigeons, has provided us with a recipe for a good racing diet, which contains 12% protein and 4% fat. Here it is: Base racing diet of 30 to 40% peas; 15% each of maize, sorghum, wheat and safflower; One to two handfuls of mixed small seed (millet, canary, rape, and linseed) per 12-liter bucket
