What Do You Use?

In the past when I have treated for Paratyphoid I used Parastop from Pantex. It's dosage was 1ml per litre of water for 10 days the active ingredient was Norfloxacin.

Nifuramycin is used to treat the following infections.

 

• Bacterial infections

• Coli infections

• Salmonellosis (Paratyphus)

• Bacterial infections of the respiratory organs

• General stress situations

[adam owen]

at least three of those infections are ybs related

Brian, how effective do you feel the 3 in 1 treatments are?

 

I have used these 3 products all together for the past 4 years,( they do come individually, and can be administered as so, but I prefer to administer all together) and I have had no problems, I have just been out to the lofts and the dropping are perfect following the 3 day administration, but I am no expert Ryan so do what suits you best m8, and all the best for the 2013 season m8.

Canker them for 5-7 days a week before pairing and worm them when they are on Eggs.

is adenosan and antibiotic?good point oldyellow but unfortunately the fancy breeds dont seem to be as hardy as racing pigeons.i dont see any harm in worming or cocci treatment for the birds even if they dont have it.canker treatment is another thing as i dont like flock treating with antibiotics.

Original post on what is in adenosan is gone but Susan obviously picked up on it:-

 

Adenosan is a mixture of 'crucifers and immunoglobulins'

 

crucifers - are vegetables

it doesn't sound to me as if it contains actual 'medication'

but whether it would be harmful to young birds in the nest - I do not know

 

Basically its a right load of cabbage - crucifers is Belgian (I think) for brassicas, so its liquidised vegetables belonging to the cabbage family!

 

Immunoglobulins are basically proteins the body's immune system uses to fight various infections. There are various types, usually written as IgA, IgC etc so if you Google that it'll tell you that every living body produces them, including pigeons.

Like some of the people have already said, send a testing kit of that way you know what you are treating
