If you want to give your marathon pigeons a natural performance boost, Herbovet Herbobeets is the perfect addition to their diet. This concentrated beet juice is one of the top products for improving endurance and recovery in pigeons. I’ve been using beet juice for years and have seen firsthand how it enhances oxygen efficiency and speeds up recovery after long flights.
Why Beet Juice and Herbobeets?
Herbovet Herbobeets is packed with nitrates, which are converted into nitric oxide in the body. This boosts oxygen efficiency, allowing muscles to receive more oxygen with less effort. As a result, pigeons can fly longer distances with less fatigue.
Studies show that nitrate supplementation can improve endurance by up to 16% and significantly accelerate recovery.
In sports, athletes have been using beet juice to enhance performance for years. In pigeon racing, the effects are just as impressive! Pigeons train harder, recover faster, and return home in top condition after long flights.
My Method: Herbobeets with Barley
A common challenge is that pigeons don’t always like drinking beet juice, especially if it's too concentrated. That’s why I’ve developed a method that works perfectly:
✔ Take a portion of barley – this grain absorbs moisture exceptionally well.
✔ Mix it with Herbobeets – just enough for the barley to soak up all the juice.
✔ Let it sit overnight – this allows the barley to absorb the nutrients deeply.
✔ Feed it to your pigeons the next day – they’ll eat it without hesitation, receiving all the benefits without altering their drinking habits.
Alternatively, you can mix 30 ml of Herbobeets per liter of water or per kg of feed to ensure optimal absorption.
When and How Often?
For best results, follow these guidelines for Herbovet Herbobeets:
✔ Pre-season preparation – Start 3 weeks before the season, giving it daily for 14 days.
✔ Before a major race – Administer daily for 10 days, starting 14 days before the event.
✔ Regular maintenance – Use 2 to 3 times per week throughout the season when no medications are given.
Important Considerations
⚠ Use pure, high-quality beet juice like Herbobeets – avoid products with added sugars or preservatives.
⚠ Don’t overdo it – excessive beet juice can turn droppings red, and overuse may lead to nitrite formation.
⚠ Test it first – start with a small group of pigeons to observe their reaction.
Conclusion Of The Pigeon Boss
Beet juice is a simple, natural, and highly effective supplement to give your marathon pigeons a competitive edge. Herbovet Herbobeets provides a scientifically backed way to enhance endurance, improve oxygen efficiency, and speed up recovery.
