JCN Posted January 17, 2021 Report Posted January 17, 2021 Used it until recently and felt it helped towards keeping them in top condition and great feather... Will be changing from it to try a few different products as part of programme for racing season... Will probably go back to CV/garlic for moult and winter
Roland Posted January 17, 2021 Report Posted January 17, 2021 Lol, Jimmy believed in Cider Vinegar too. said he once went down to the loft for some to vinegar his fish and chips lol.
W.D. Posted January 18, 2021 Report Posted January 18, 2021 Old man uses it a lot,don't know how much he puts in though.
gulkie Posted January 18, 2021 Report Posted January 18, 2021 Try googling it and see the good properties it has even on people
PIGEON_MAN Posted January 21, 2021 Report Posted January 21, 2021 Used to use it but started to get expensive, used to buy it in 5ltr containers, now use just ordinary vinegar, was told to use it at the rate of 10ml mixed onto one kilo of food when I had YBS cleared it up in about 4 days, now I use it every day in the water except on a Sunday when I put it on the corn. Won every club old bird race last year so can,t be doing any harm.
Roland Posted January 22, 2021 Report Posted January 22, 2021 Good results Pigeon- man. Good to get to the Top, but harder to stay there. A good fancier used to say, 'Nothing you buy for your pigeons, can't be brought cheaper, and at least as good from the Supermarkets'. I believe that too!
greenlands Posted January 22, 2021 Author Report Posted January 22, 2021 If you look round there's always a better place to buy.Same product in B & M £1:19p a bottle (got two this morning),how can Holland and Barrett justify their price.https://www.hollandandbarrett.com/shop/product/bragg-organic-apple-cider-vinegar-with-the-mother-60013385?skuid=013385&utm_campaign=shopping&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIpZuBvcqv7gIVia3tCh3bXAhCEAQYASABEgLYafD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
flying fifer Posted January 22, 2021 Report Posted January 22, 2021 If you're going to use it , apple cider vinegar with the "mother "is a must. Like anything you use, pay peanuts and you get monkeys.
Roland Posted January 23, 2021 Report Posted January 23, 2021 Monkeys! lol. Well a lot of 'Monkeys' are winning and taking all the beating. Well yes, also, a lot of money down the drain achieving nothing too!

WeeDa Posted January 28, 2021 Report Posted January 28, 2021 what does this actually do for the pigeons and has anyone any proof what it does
reddog Posted January 28, 2021 Report Posted January 28, 2021 google up " Ad Schaerlaeckens cider vinegar" lots of interesting wee snippets about it.
Roland Posted January 29, 2021 Report Posted January 29, 2021 (edited) what does this actually do for the pigeons and has anyone any proof what it does Now that is a good question One asked of 99% of most things I guess. OR should be! some say 'You pay your money, and make your choice'! I ask 'What, and why'!Logic say FIRST DON'T compare a pigeon in human terms! They are nothing alike. Indeed couldn't be more completely opposites! But that certainly isn't to say we can't do them a good service! Or can certainly help sometimes! Just to be sensible and think about it! Well that's my belief and what i think and choose to do/done. Edited January 29, 2021 by Roland
greenlands Posted January 29, 2021 Author Report Posted January 29, 2021 what does this actually do for the pigeons and has anyone any proof what it doesIt reduces the ph in the crop hopefully making life difficult for any little nasties that cause problems for the birds.
Roland Posted January 29, 2021 Report Posted January 29, 2021 I think Trump would have been better recommending it than Detergents lol. mind I think he was on about using it on his brain lol.
PIGEON_MAN Posted January 29, 2021 Report Posted January 29, 2021 what does this actually do for the pigeons and has anyone any proof what it doesIt certainly cleared up young bird sickness for me.(Malt Vinegar that was)
WeeDa Posted January 29, 2021 Report Posted January 29, 2021 It certainly cleared up young bird sickness for me.(Malt Vinegar that was) so what your saying it cures a virus then
