Guest Posted September 28, 2007 Report Share Posted September 28, 2007 I'm going back a long time now, 40+ years and fighting with me memory. No general access to internet then, and it was all word-of-mouth, the odd pigeon book and articles in pigeon weekly and monthly magazines. I've only had one case of 'one eyed cold' in a pigeon in my life and the 'remedy' then was an eyewash, boracic acid crystals? Only remembered name today and there's an article on it in Wikipaeda : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boric_acid Anybody remember this?

doo.racer Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 One eye cold (the left eye normally) is a sign of a more serious problem namely chlemydia (ornithosis) which you can also catch from the birds. I use an avian vet that prescribes aureomycin which is cheap but still the treatment of choise for this problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
