UConnTom Posted August 1, 2007 Report Posted August 1, 2007 Hey guys, My birds had their first truck toss of 30 miles yesterday and came broken up and looked a tad tired lol, but they came within the right time of everyone elses. Unfortunately I am still out one as of this morning. I was wondering if I should be giving them any supplements? pro-biotic, electrolytes? any suggestions? tonight is another truck toss and I plan on sending most of them. Thanks for the help in advance!
Wiley Posted August 1, 2007 Report Posted August 1, 2007 before sending them access on how they are, if they still arent looking right, i would consider having dropping and swab test, as the should be doing the distance easily. However if the birds didnt recieve a drink before basketing they may have been slightly dehydrated. In this heat i would offer them an electrolyte if you said they looked tired.
UConnTom Posted August 1, 2007 Author Report Posted August 1, 2007 thanks for the response wiley, what electrolyte do you suggest?
Wiley Posted August 1, 2007 Report Posted August 1, 2007 i couldnt suggest a brand one as i believe all electrolytes do the same job just different prices im using an australian electrolyte at moment though. Also you maybe some glucose will bring up the sugar levels.

Thanks for the help in advance! allthough your birds seemed to be a bit tired ,they've came along with the others , so i should imagine this toss would do them the world of good,,,,,,but, to send them again so soon is maybe not the best thing electrolytes or rehydration salts [,the same ] would help them pick up quicker ,, but rest is the main thing in my opinion , with a few days rest they'll be raring to go ,,,best of luck
