Bart, I would start it on Doxy T and watch out for one eyed cold

[Mike Lycett]

I'd probably give it a Doxybird tablet mate.....  Treats respiratory.    Are your YBs still on the darkness?

[mosslands]

if you leave your youngs birds out in the sunshine for most of the day you wont get problems like youve got let the bird get over it himself let them out

[frank-123]

my ybs are not on darkness mike

i have just moved house and dont want to upset the neighbours with my ybs sittinng around all day on the roof tiles

do you get doxy from the vet or can you get it online?

[Guest]

Think you will be able to get the DoxyT from B and R, we get it from Jedds in CA who stock all B and R lines,  It's from the Colin Walker range of products.

i would say after youve treated , make sure the loft is clean with plenty of fresh air,

most common problems occur ,with too many birds and lack of fresh air

[Rentenier]

It is with regret that I read that you can't take a joke and become abusive.

[frank-123]

maybe my jokes not as good as yours!!!

Hi Bart,  

It sounds as if your birds have got respitory.

Treat them for five days with lincoln spectrum,  that will do the trick.

CHEERS

BRYAN ;D

Hi Bart. Would you mind clarifying: did you treat the bird / birds with anything BEFORE they did the 90 minute stint?

HI bruno

sorry for the delay i used doxy t for three days followed by gempax on the corn and in the water  the birds look great flying a lot better

 

i cotacted my local vet who gave me baytril for one pigeon one weeks supply for a tenner i have heard many bad stories  about baytril i never gave the bird any of the stuff

so after speaking with a few friends  doxy t was purchased

also told stay back from the local vet as he rips you off and doesnt know a lot about pigeons

 

[REDCHEQHEN]

I was told that Baytril affects the development of young birds ( ie skeleton - bones)

[Guest]

I would never have it in my loft

[Chatrace]

Can I have the Hanky :-)

[Rentenier]

Sorry, I used it yesterday as we had a difficult race and only 4 returned out of 17 from 488km.
