Broken Cobs
The ideal ground cover of your pigeon loft!
Many fanciers are convinced of their choice for Broken Cobs, a choice for the ideal floor coverage! Top fanciers are totally confident about the extra value of this unique product. However – in your choice for Broken Cobs – make sure you choose the highest quality. You get what you pay for, as recently seen!
Before we offer the Broken Cobs to the market, we carefully check them for the best quality. Especially molds in the bags of Broken Cobs may cause a big problem for racing pigeons! Therefore we check our cobs before packaging to ensure the fanciers get only the best of quality. Without molds and ‘fresh’. The sales price is paired to this quality label.
It is fair to warn you for the cheaper variation of Broken Cobs that is also offered by some suppliers. Several fanciers approached us because they thought they bought ‘our product’ for a special price of 12 Euro. However their hopes were deceived and because of mold they had to get rid of this bad-bargain directly.
We advice you to choose for quality and in case of doubt, inform about the origin of the cobs. Our bags of Broken Cobs cost 19,50 Euro and our exclusive distributors are Dick Vogelzang (The Netherland), Karel Leijen (Belgium), Horst & Sandeck GmbH (Germany) and Direct Pigeon Supplies Ltd (Ireland). Our bags can be recognized by the unique label, see image above. Please pay close attention, because the cheap alternative is offered in a likewise white bag.
Broken Cobs have already convinced several fanciers through the fine climate they create and the many benefits they offer. We are able to deliver this ideal ground cover to the Dutch market immediately.

- Free from mycotoxines / micro-biological remains
(molds, yeasts and entero bacteria’s);
- Guarantee for good health, coziness and comfort;
- Strong isolating working erk;
- Dust lowers to the ground (therefore less dust in the loft);
- No outlet to outside the loft, as in straw,
woodchips or grains.
Simple use
Place a layer of about 15 to 20 cm on the floor in your loft. Cobs can remain in a loft for a long period.
Example: You have a loft of 2 x 2 meters, you will need 4 bags of Broken Cobs.
This results in a nice layer of cobs lying on the floor of your loft, that you can leave there for a long period of time.
The occupation of your loft by your pigeons, determins a healthy habitat for your pigeons. When a section is empty, it influences the climate and also the state of your floor-covering. When the broken cobs remain in an empty space with few ventilation and possible moist for a longer period, there is the chance the cobs are damaged by moulds. Therefore ensure a good ventilation of your loft when it’s empty.
Use by Marcel Sangers
Before the racing season starts, about end March beginning of April, I put a layer of cobs in all lofts. At the end of the season in September/October I refresh the corn cobs.
Throughout the years I tried many products as floor covering in the lofts; wood chips, lava grit and different kinds of straw. Never I was 100% satisfied about any of these products. The wood chips got dirty quickly and you walk them out of the loft easily, after a while the garden is covered with wood chips. Lava grit does the same and this makes the lofts quit dusty. Straw gets wet easily with rainy weather and that brings an unpleasant smell in the lofts. It also sticks to your shoes and that makes you walk it outside.
Cobs as floor covering has none of these problems! They are a bit more expensive, but they last long in the lofts. For me, it is the ideal floor covering in the pigeon loft; convince yourself of advantages of this exclusive product in pigeon racing.

"I recommend this product to every fancier!"
"A super product that I like to share with everyone!"
"It's a great and easy to use product!"
"It's also very decorative compared to straw or woodchips."
"Simply a top quality floor coverage!"
