Vaccination must be carried out strictly in accordance with the Manufacturers Instructions

issued with the vaccine which must be a Ministry Licensed Vaccine for pigeons.

It depends on when they were done as YBs. If it was left e.g. till June, then that bird could race until June the following year without being done again. Mine get done as YBs and their next one is usually when they are 2 Yo, around January / February, prior to pairing up.

if you dont vaccinate them before the 12 months say june

then you cannot race any of your feds longer races with yearlings

or any comeback races after that date

also you cannot show untill they have been vaccinated

 

do you vaccinate all your old birds in jan/feb

every year except your yearlings

[dal2]

so do you not race your yearlings ?

How would they appear on your jag sheet that you will hand in before racing? Or do you take the yb one in as proof?

[THE FIFER]

in short once you jag a bird it lasts 12 months,

[Guest IB]

so do you not race your yearlings ?

 

I race my yearlings Tam. Their jag as YBs covers the OB programme.

Our YB racing does not begin till last week in July. Provided they're done 2 weeks before the YB racing begins, that does them for YB season, and the OB season till 2nd week in July the following year.

 

I vaccinate my OBs in Jan/Feb., usually a couple of weeks before pairing them up. The only yearlings I do are the latebreds.

[PATTY BHOY]

Is there no harm to the birds mixing different vaccines?

[Guest IB]

With the shortage of Colombovac over the years, fanciers haven't had any choice other than swop backwards and forwards between that and Nobilis. Both products are similar, and licensed.

[gulkie]

My young are jagged around about may/June and then I jag all my birds again in feb

Have done for years without any probs

[john cumming]

i thought it was to be done at least 14 days before racing started but not certain ?? its to be done annualy as far as im aware

why ?

[andy Burgess]

why ?

look at the "Pigeon health questions" thread , its a long read ,but will explain all , and it may teach you something ,i and many others have had our eyes opened , happy reading

[big blue bar]

IB you ve been lucky leaving your y/birds so late before jagging them , I see what your saying about not having to jag again till they are 2 yo , we did the same till our y/bird picked up pmv from bird we took in . we ll never take that risk again . vaccinate ASAP after they are weaned
