I guess mines is promises promises promises ... really had it with fn promises for ever sandy

Missed one money.....worthless

Where about tommy and price would be very helpful all the best sandy

Hi Ian will you please send me one ,anything that helps the birds , I'm interested in yours sandy

"Its a disease"yes but not highly infectious .Mores the pity ....

Country store in Milnathort does carry a limited supply but slightly dearer than Coxy .Its not much of a distance difference though ..

Many happy returns may you enjoy many more sandy

Well first guess is that your off camping and cant affford a flask.2nd your making your own and its went offski . But in all seriousness I hope your intentions are to enlighten us star gazers as to what it actually is because we and that is most of us think either your making a new type of scrumpie and its a winner or your hooch has a wierd colour but a great taste ..so tell us what it is .

Surely the fault lies with the rspb who have totally ignored their mandate which is to PROTECT ALL BIRDS which means ALL BIRDS.. Also we racing midweek as well just manage to supply B O P with easy meals all week long with a midweek top up .If you doubt this how many days did it take for your stragglers(or terrified) birds to get home .. In weeks of bad races birds struggle home all week sometimes two ..to bop their just flying pizza deliveries you kno.. Perhaps the rspb can be taken out for breach of mandate and sued for their ineptitude maybe the shu could seek advise along these lines

Birds been really stressed out with bop all year think that that brought this to the fore all the best sandy25

Bump

Clear capsule and herbal sounds like a bell ringing ......what out of a matter of interest did you give him I'm not on the cadge just need info and where to buy thanks all the best sandy25

Yes well advertised on Elimar and other websites .Dont want to end in court for naming them . Do you have any suggestions as to medications? atb sandy 25

By the way I didnt at anytime ask for a refund just for help and advise . what is the best advise from the forum to treat this 95%positive canker like all of us my birds matter to me....

Ok seems like no other diagnosis So here we go .last sunday found bird like this and phoned a company purporting to be able to cure canker in 3 hours .Arranged to go to them and collect capsules , got back here and medicated the birds all of them ..Went on holiday monday early my daughter (19) looked after birds all week , back home yesterday checked out birds this one and another three the same emailed company yesterday to ask for advice no answer yesterday evening so medicated those 4 again (included pic of bird showing lesion in throat ) This morning checked the bird again and found no change so took pics emailed that to company telling them their cure aparently does not work in 3 hours .Afternoon email arrived from them quote from it ( if (capsules have not cured the pigeon in 48 hours then what you have is not canker .Take them to a vet as you or your club mates are simply guessing .The pigeon in the picture has a severe fungal problem more like PIGEON POX by the look of it which will require strong antibiotics to cure ) email 2 (What I can clearly see is that it is NOT canker and I would advise you see a vet soon as possible .What these pigeons have is something more serious .) Firstly pox to my knowledge is a virus not fungal .(attached pic of pigeon with pox ) secondly , antibiotics they say dont work on viruses. Hence my ? for diagnosis. What does the forum think I should use as a cure? And dont suggest the bin..... Pic of pigeon with pox....

Thats the idea clear and simple diagnosis just like I did .

Peter I'm just trying to get a general diagnosis from as many as possible before I tell the rest of the story truth not made up please bear with me.. If it was your pigeon and it wasn't maize what would your diagnosis be? sandy 25

Right got that sorted out.. sandy 25

Def not maize Peter I would have spotted that .So what isit then? all the best sandy

Here is maybe a better pic taken outside .. Wouldnt upload too big sssshhhhhh. sandy 25

With that in mind attached is pic of bird in hand .Does that help in diagnosis

Is it possible that some others might give their opinion esp the old hands so we can get an overall opinion thanking you sandy 25
