OLDYELLOW Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 Nystatin best treatment , yes will show up on swab test , if bad i wouldn't race on it as stress is the last thing they need you can get test kits from northern hygiene

OLDYELLOW Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 thanks is it possible to jus have a few with it as only 1 bird was swobbed yes they'll pass it via your drinker , so yes one may show symptoms others may have it but not showing as yet so better to flock treatIf you've had your birds swabbed why hasn't vet offered treatment ????

OLDYELLOW Posted March 28, 2011 Report Posted March 28, 2011 what is the signs of yeast the only way that ive found oot is birds behind on race day been a long time since had it but your probably right behind Typical signs are puffy crop, slow crop, vomiting, sour smell from bird’s mouth, foamy diarrhoea. The most common yeast is called Candida albicans. That is the reason why yeast overgrowth in pigeons is called Candidiasis (Sour Crop is another name).Causes birds on antibiotics treatment and high sugar diet usually develop Candidiasis. Baytril is especially one of the drugs that stimulate yeast growing and it is recommended to administer together with Nystatin.Treatments below: Good treatment for Candida are Mycostatin, Amphotericin, Flucytosine etc.Emptying crop, flushing with diluted solution baking soda, or Lugol’s Iodine solution are good remedies in case of Candida infection. All antibiotics must be discontinued.
Guest geordiejen Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 doesnt natural yogurt help with this?
REDCHEQHEN Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 doesnt natural yogurt help with this? Creating an acidic environment helps (ie cider vinegar, put it on the food)
dal2 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 Does anyboby make any connection wae yeast and YBS?
greenlands Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 Does anyboby make any connection wae yeast and YBS?YES
dal2 Posted August 30, 2011 Report Posted August 30, 2011 YES Thank god for that Lindsay I thought it was just me :emoticon-0140-rofl:
just ask me Posted August 31, 2011 Report Posted August 31, 2011 Does anyboby make any connection wae yeast and YBS? yeast infection probably comes with 90% of ailments in pigeons so probably would not put this down as a main indicator of ybs
