Novice Posted November 23, 2018 Report Share Posted November 23, 2018 I know some fanciers who have used this. Whether or not it improved their performances I don’t know.I think it’s mainly a gut acidified with a few trace elements thrown in for good measure.It was described to a friend of mine by an Irish fancier as “the biggest secret in pigeon racing†Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REDCHEQHEN Posted November 23, 2018 Report Share Posted November 23, 2018 I have shared a 5 litre bottle with a fellow fancier, I haven't been using it that long, but fellow fancier has used it from day 1 and has seen a noticeable difference in his birds. It's very similar to Avidress but it's more concentrated - 1ml to a litre. It's not cheap! I am a great believer in acidifying the gut, this one also boosts the immune system. If there's anything further to report - I'll let you know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pompey Mick Posted November 27, 2018 Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 If you buy it, whatever you do don't have a good sniff, it'll knock your head off. I've used it this year ended up with a flock of healthy YBs, whether it helped I don't know but I'm going to use it in future. At 1ml per litre it's not that expensive and it has a long life in the water. Best if you buy a 5l tub and split it. Had good reports from fanciers who have used it for several years. The feeling is it help keeps the flock healthy, you will still lose the odd YB but using this seems to stop spread. It has excellent reviews from the pheasant industry. https://www.quillproductions.co.uk/collections/pigeon-vitamins-organic-acids-supplements/products/quill-boost-1-litre https://www.quillproductions.co.uk/collections/pigeon-vitamins-organic-acids-supplements Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neila Posted November 27, 2018 Report Share Posted November 27, 2018 Never used it but use Avidress everyday May give this a try on the ybs or keep the cocks on Avidress and try the hens on this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
