Racing Pigeons l Conditioning | Mark Raubenheimer | Mount Moreland Lofts

The conditioning of racing pigeons takes place to ensure that the fancier gets the best out of the pigeon. This conditioning of racing pigeons is a monthly cycle which is recognizable visually. 

The way to detect conditioning is by examining the down feathers.

Many fanciers make the big mistake of not starting their conditioning from the first day which is rather unfortunate. Racing pigeons, like all other wild creatures, need the proper care & training from the time they are hatchlings.

Another important aspect of the good conditioning of racing pigeons, is the ability to prevent specific ailments and diseases. Canker, worms, lice and mites, coccidian and respiratory infections are just some of the illnesses that can attack a racing pigeon. The importance of regular integrated treatment cannot be stressed enough, as prevention is better than cure.

The conditioning program of the racing pigeons at the Mount Moreland lofts has been developed with the utmost care. Mark Raubenheimer has ensured that he has consulted with an avian veterinarian  to develop a program for his specific needs. 

This conditioning program is meant to make sure that the health of the racing pigeons are carefully nurtured, and that all their nutritional needs are being met. 

In fact these pigeons are fed a quality pellet which supplements all the nutrients that are essential for the good health of the racing pigeons. Mark’s approach is one of a non-fractured one, whereby he ensures that all his processes are strictly followed. From the training to feeding, nothing is compromised on, which is why his pigeons turn out the way that they do. 

Mount Moreland lofts operate on the cutting edge of racing pigeon conditioning using the latest products from the United States of America, South Africa, Europe and China.
