naturaline is not an iron tonic is enchinea ? i have had no problem with yeast whilst using the products i use

Aviform Ultimate and cider vinegar and naturaline had no canker for over a year nor worms for about 4 years

fanciers wil rather spend hundreds of pounds on treatment they actualy think its cheaper than going to a vet , i feel if more went to vets they would save far more and not need birds proped up with a pill bottle , the problem is this weak birds wil get sick yes you can cure thembut the same bird will bring the rest down later on and is ineffect a gateway for sickness to come into the loft P.M.V Vaccinne does work but only to a certain degree and from recent out breaks last year it is either ineffective or there are those out there that flaunt the rules , i wouldnt say most problems are down to .pm.v .vaccine just fanciers filling there birds with medicines they dont need then when it come they have a problem that requires an over used medicine it becomes ineffective then you have real problems

urinating in the wind Jimmy until the R.S.P.B acknowledges they are failing our song birds and are the biggest cause of there demise there will be more hawks than anything we are breeding more to feed them every year lets hope with most populations surges these birds of prey get a new deadly disease that reduces there numbers , they blame farmers poisoning ectra but never the very thing thats eats most of them

i vaccinate for P.M.V its a nasty disease and in order to race its a requirement thats one thing we all should do by rules , its not treating because if your treating your curing an ailment they have got not preventing one they may get

a Van Claybourne i think was its correct strain name :D :D

have no worms not treated for years ? i use products that keep my birds clear , if you had problems with bacteria ectra after you treated then surely that must be down to management ? canker = i use products that keep my birds clear no medication just natural products

one loft each person who enters a bird pays to enter it resulting in a one loft race

Just keep the best birds forget strains , after all the sun city was a cross $$$$$$$$$$

nice traps Bandit

birds will pick things up in the baskets thats for sure but a little intervention when they get home will keep them clear

hope he wins his case

i have to agree some people use medications willy nilly even used baytrill once myself with good effect if your getting respirity disease its down to the loft design and too many pigeons , if your birds ail too often they wouldnt be of any use to me as they wouldnt survive long enough to see medication , nature suppresses the week and unfit birds be it through bad management or natural causes , it has to be survival of the fittest and fastest , birds with a week constitution will ail and will weaken any loft till there removal

not a bad clip

i think when it comes to treating for anything you should think would you take a parcetamol just incase you get an headache , would you have radioactive therapy loose all your hair just to make sure you dint have lukemia , the answer is you wouldnt you would seek medical advise then treat accordingly

get your droppings tested regulary you'l save a fortune in treating and your birds will be better for it

i would say the bird was flown out when it first came and finaly built its strength back and decided it was time to head for home , the snow may have made him decide he needed better shelter but i doubt it , he must of felt fit and headed for home

well a garage it meant for storage either car or other stuff, to use it as a living space he would need to submit a change of use at the council planning office which they would reject , the other issue would be the noise generated by people been there going to and leaving the building , also he would need an entertainments licience for the public use of the television and a special public licence to broadcast sky matches , and last but not least the premises would have to meet fire safety standards :X

it will be closed down for safety reasons :-/

i have to agree , so its either pot eggs or fly widowhood and not have unwanted young birds but we all know theres birds that kick dummys out or lay at side of them with widowhood you wouldnt get those problems

great post , but if this young lad dint want a vast amount of young birds and wanted to have ybs to motivate the old birds / parents what other option if hes only allowed 5 pairs ?

its more than likely got itself fit and headed for home
