1 Natural Health for Pigeons Pigeon Health Catalogue Your guide to our complete range of Natural Healthcare products for Pigeons.

2 Welcome to Hilton Herbs Turning Nature into Health Welcome to our new catalogue for pigeon fanciers. We hope you will find exactly what you need in the following pages to help keep your birds fit and healthy regardless of whether they are training, racing, showing, breeding or rearing. Since 1989, when we first started Hilton Herbs, we have supplied many fanciers with a variety of herbal products for their birds. We are now getting so many enquiries that we have decided to create a catalogue especially for you! All our pure herbal products are manufactured here, at Downclose Farm, in a purpose built facility. We never compromise on the quality of our ingredients, and we back up our products with an in-depth knowledge of herbal medicine. Our products do not contain fillers, additives, or animal by-products, only medicinal grade herbs. Our Helpline is vital to the success of our business. It has been there since the beginning and we are proud of its role in providing our customers with a friendly, knowledgeable, point of contact. In the wild birds know instinctively how to self-select a wide variety of plants, herbs, grasses, seeds, roots and fruits, to help them maintain overall good health and freedom from internal parasites. Unfortunately domesticated birds may not have access to these same health giving plants. This inability to obtain fresh plants and seeds may ultimately affect their overall health and fitness. Add to this the stresses of breeding, rearing, travelling, racing, showing, parasites and the moult, and it is no wonder their health may be affected. We believe that by using the appropriate herbal supplements, in conjunction with a good diet, clean healthy housing, and freedom to exercise, we can greatly enhance the health of your birds. Herbs will reconnect them to their origins, giving them the power to maintain prime health as their wild cousins do. We hope you have success using our products to help keep your birds in the very best condition whatever their age or activity. We wish all our customers and their birds the very best of health and happiness. Thank you for helping us to continue Turning Nature into Health. Hilary and Tony
