Pigeons & Mourning Doves love, looking great.
5 Stars
Pigeons & Mourning Doves love, looking great.
I feed the same 7 Mourning Doves and the same 8 Pigeons daily. I was using chopped peanuts, sunflower seed and wild bird mix. I decided to try this specific food. The enthusiasm from my 15 friends has been really encouraging to watch. The important thing is, first and foremost, they eat very quickly and throughly, don’t have trouble picking any of it up and having to take too much time, which makes them vulnerable to the Hawks. Secondly, they are looking much much better since I introduced this seed to their diet. I believe that the fortification of the seed, both in nutrition and insect control, has been an incredible assist to the birds, who often deal with difficult living conditions and have eaten contaminated things to survive (like the effects of lead poisoning, which pigeons often contract in urban/suburban areas) leaving them deficient at best. The birds feathers are much nicer, their sheen is easily twice what it was, they also seem to clean their feathers and arrange/rearrange their filling crops more quickly. I have seen that some people felt the flattened corn addition was negative, but my experience has been the opposite. They never leave any; the technique I see the Pigeons use is picking up the flattened kernel, clipping it in their beak, eating the portion in their mouth, picking it up again, repeat. Two of them always scan through their portion to eat the ‘corn biscuit’ first, but none of them dislike it. We (the writer of this review and my cooing friends) cannot recommend Hagen Pigeon and Dove Staple enough. Very reasonable price for food that’s just excellent.

This food is great, I have a rescue pigeon, she’s about 6 weeks old now, goes out but comes back everyday to grub some treats off of me, This girl loves the flat corn/stamped corn, she picks it out and eats every drop, she then eats the rest of the food, , but, what I want to know is, what is that corn called ? I would love a bag of just that to add more to the treats , I attached a pic of the pieces I’m talking about, looks like a ruffles potato chip, thank you

The Hagen Pigeon & Dove Seed, Nutritionally Complete Bird Food, original version, has been a hit with the wild birds in my area. Despite being marketed for pet/domesticated birds, I've found that wild birds also appreciate it. The 6-pound pack offers a decent quantity at a reasonable price point, making it a cost-effective choice for feeding the feathered friends in my backyard. I've been satisfied with the product and will continue purchasing it in the future.

My dove seems to be picky and doesn't eat what the books say he should. This is one of the few things he will eat....still picks through it, but accepts it more than others I've tried.

5.0 out of 5 stars The pidgies (and wrens) love it!
Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2024
Size: 2.72 kg (Pack of 1)Style: Bird FoodVerified Purchase
I absolutely love pigeons, and there are several places near where I live where they tend to gather. I don't dump a ton of seed all at once, but locate a flock nearby and start scattering small amounts. All it takes is one bird to notice and come over; then they all do. They love the various seeds in this mixture, and so do the neighborhood wrens, who also come to feed.

I keep a couple of 8 oz screw-lid containers in my purse so I'm prepared whenever I encounter hungry pidges!

Bread should not be fed to birds, as it has no nutrition in it and doesn't help them stay healthy. This seed mixture, however, is perfect! I just ordered my second bag.
