  1. Surprising, i havent seen the dvd with deweerdt, but last time i spoke to him he suggest that everyone should vaccinate there old and young. Young birds had no need to be treated before hand he suggested, but old birds should have a course of parastop, baytrill or cosumix plus!
  2. Cosumix is alot better product then baytril, its not as harsh as baytril on the birds immune system, and is a very valuable all round anti biotic,
  3. get yourself some cosumix Plus, be the first thing to treat for, if u cant get cosumix get yourself baytril and i would dose these birds for a minium of 12 days with a dead vaccination of paratyphoid perferable Sal-Bac. then get yourself a full test done for cocci, canker worms. However i wouldnt have obtained this birds in danger, of infecting your other birds
  4. Just a question Bill, how many days will or should the treatment go on for, and also to how much water?
  5. Bill living in london not many if any agricultural stores about, will they sell it online do you know?

    Ludlows granaries

    Cor Blimey that takes me back, Ludlows, been closed for years my friend, roughly about 10 years, used to have the best corns around these parts, closest us fellows in east london can get our corn is about a 30 mile round trip to essex, or with the help of Chris Woodhouse, get your food and grains deleviered. I remeber going down there the last time when i was about 8-9 years old to buy my corn, and it was alot cheaper then it is today.
  11. hmm, id go to the point many successful fanciers, that i know dont have a health programme by treating with antibiotics, but have a health programme involving preventatives, and i should add natural preventatives for cocci, canker, worms ect, and they will only treat when something is wrong. But they use plenty of vitamins, minerals ect if you understand what i mean, just like a proffessional athlete, they will take vitamins and minerals, to enhance there state of fitness, but they wouldnt take an antibiotic, unless they was ill, they like us wouldnt take an antibiotic, if they didnt have an illness as a preventative. But with there natural products vitamins, and minerals they take throughout there feeding system it helps to build a barrier against the common illness's.
  12. nope thats how much it was going on pipa.be, howeve that was the internet auction before the saleroom where it went for around 74,000, so in the auction room starting bid was 31,700 euros
  13. im msure this pigeon was bought cheap, as it was originally bought for 100,000 i read somewhere
  14. for me the biggest delight, is breeding winners for others,
  15. i knew one fancier had a very good bird, who done this, he was named Houdini, everyday he would do this

    Feeding 2day?

    hmm have to disagree with this one old chap, the starvation metabolism will only kick in when the body is undernourised, If the bird is fed well the starvation metabolism will not kick in, untill the 3rd day, thats when its body will start to hoad the fats with this you will also notice the birds muscle mass will also be lost, and make its body burn calories slower, as it has become starved. Many top fanciers of the past and many of the present miss the 7th day only in the winter months, why you may ask, as they say the birds 'Must feel the winter' wild birds arent eating every single day when the snow is falling ect.
  20. best way to get pigeons used to peanuts feed them while on young birds, theyll eat anything
  21. used to, one of the biggest regrets, caused a very high count of Cocci, even with gas burner at hand, which I myself was very surprised at. Would never do again, stock shed if u aint got aviary hand bath them

    Feeding 2day?

    when the weathers cold, i feed less percentage of barley, i feed by feel, at the moment cos its cold there on slightly more protein, which will also help with the moult, but at the weather warms up by the weekend, the percentage of barley will be hugely increased. Especially when its bitterly cold i always feed as much as they require
