Me too, said they had chlamydia / yeast and fungus. Have treated as recomended and birds look fine. ( but come to think of it they did before the test ! )

it takes at least 2 days to test for a bactiral infection. i have used pigeon health and found he doesn't know what he is talking about. i use retford poultry now. they are spot on. :)

[tippler1]

i used them 3 years ago said it was fungus gave me 5 bottles of stuff for frush

Well Les !!!!!!!!!   ;) I'm in total shock here   :P how could you ever say such a thing. Still   :) , my local resident guru (Pigeon vet) in his wisdom here, has decided to do the sport a favour ??????????? as he is not racing in the near future. So he is offering to breed off certain of his stock pigeons, for $400 each. Just another fine example, of how etc  :'( :'( :'( one flyer wishes to help another flyer who may be in need  ;D ;D ;D.

Enjoy.

I have used them in the past and never came back with any problems - although I never expected them too as they we just routine tests.........

ive used pigeon health twice to have droppings/swab tested  the 1st test came back as a bacterial infection but when i asked him if he could be more specific he seemed unsure of what to say,i asked if it was ornithosis and he agreed :-/ for treatment he sent me protril powder and multi vits which i have to say did the trick as the birds were back to flying for 1hr within the week the 2nd test approx 6 months later came back showing low levels of canker and cocci   i treated the canker with chevicol (i had some in cupboard) and the cocci with coxedex which pigeon health sent to me  on both occasions they,ve phoned the test results through to me within 3 days of posting which i thought was good  i got the impression that he was very busy and just wanted to move on to his next call and with tests at £12.50 a pop i expect he,s very busy  at the end of the day i suppose you get what you pay for  even though lizzy rigsby is more expensive ive heard that she,s very good and worth every penny so i will try her next time i have my birds tested   debbie
