Try the local feed store.If they don't have pigeon feed they can order it.You could use other feeds until it comes in ie wheat,pig starter,hog grower,chicken feed,wild bird seed,etc

For my breeders, I mix my own feed and I use some of the Wal-mart feeds. I use the Pennington's wild bird feed, black oil sunflower seed, and safflower from there. I get my straight milo, wheat, and an egg laying pellet for chickens from the feed store.
2 parts milo
2 parts wild bird seed
1 part wheat
1 part black oil sunflower seed
1 to 1 1/2 parts pellets
1 part safflower (in the late summer during molt)
For some reason my milo always has about 10% maple peas!
It works for me, my birds are healthy!
