tonic

[wilkins]

does any one use the tonic in the l corby book and i think it is in the loft stock book as well.

4  parts to the tonic with iron , parrish's and cytacon. and liqiud liver i think,i  was reading it over the weekend

 

did it help the birds or make no real difference

All good produts if used correctly,I haven't seen the books you mention but parrishes food contains iron.I've made a tonic up years ago with cytacon,parrishes and something else ,I would have to look through my old books to jog the brain cells a bit.Lindsay C.

[Guest chrisss]

it was made from parrish's and cytacon vit b12 and iodine and it worked [for me i noticed a difference in the birds] try to get hold the pigeon fanciers handbook [one or two]

yep great stuff if you cannot get hold of parrish's

meditech has the full kit at £16.99 for the 4 bottles , top up to 1 pint of water and store in the fridge ,i think the book says so it should go a long way
