The Use of PrimaLac as an Aid in Disease Control and Prevention in Racing and Show Pigeons

 

 

 

By John Kazmierczak, DVMPrimaLac is a probiotic that has been in commercial and private use for several years. It has proved useful in control and prevention of several diseases in poultry, among which are E.coli and Salmonella infections. Other benefits are enhanced growth, better feed digestion and utilization, along with better feather quality.

 

PrimaLac stands out from other probiotics because universities and other qualified research facilities have tested, documented, and demonstrated its usefulness and health benefits. Also, it has been shown to withstand extremes in temperature and humidity and remains stable up to a year after its container is opened. Its unique formulation ensures that a large portion of what is ingested actually gets into the bowel or GI tract and is not destroyed in the crop or stomach. Therefore, its desired effect is achieved.

 

It is worthwhile to mention what a “probiotic†is. Probiotic is a term which means “for lifeâ€. Probiotics such as PrimaLac are live sources of friendly bacteria that are ingested as a supplemental aid to promote health, growth, and disease resistance. PrimaLac’s desired effect is achieved through adding it to the drinking water. The mechanism of action is to crowd out the bad bacteria, i.e., E. coli or Salmonella and occupy the lining of the intestinal tract (bowel). It also enhances bowel function by promoting a healthy bowel lining to promote absorption of nutrients, produce immunoglobulins (proteins used to fight disease) and make the bowel slightly more acid. Bad bacteria such as E. coli and Salmonella don’t thrive in acid environments. It’s little wonder the use of probiotics is found to be beneficial to help our pigeons ward off disease.

 

In choosing a probiotic, be sure to check the label for the type and amount of organisms present to insure stability of the product, especially in extreme temperatures or extreme environmental conditions. Also, it should have been tested by a university or qualified researcher to document its usefulness. There are many probiotics for sale and one should carefully look for background data before purchasing for efficacy. In my own loft of several hundred pigeons, I have noticed many definite, beneficial effects from using PrimaLac for over a year:

 

1. Young bird mortality after weaning is almost “zeroâ€. This has not happened

 

in the past.

 

2. Fertility improved, there were less clear eggs, and the young birds grew and

 

developed well.

 

3. No young birds developed Adeno, Circo, Pox, or Herpes viral infections for

 

the first time ever. (In the past, despite Pox vaccination, some birds always

 

developed “Pox sores†or lesions.)

 

4. There were fewer young bird losses in training and racing.

 

5. Fewer pigeons developed E. coli or Salmonella infections.

 

6. Overall feather quality improved.

 

7. Droppings are round and firm.

 

8. PrimaLac can be used with vitamins and most other supplements.

 

9. PrimaLac can be put in the bath water.

 

10. PrimaLac can be used with canker and coccidia medicines.

 

11. Antibiotic usage decreased, thus reducing the development of resistant strains

 

of bacteria and lowering the cost of antibiotic use.

 

12. Feed consumption decreased.

 

I have found it an especially useful disease preventative in damp, cold and hot, humid weather, where bacterial and yeast infections thrive. In-depth discussions with several fanciers have indicated that they too felt it was quite beneficial as a health aid for their pigeons. Overall I have observed no negative side effects from its use, and feel it is a real benefit to help keep our pigeons healthy

No make them win if they ain't healthy and you can get the same ingredients a lot cheaper if you shop around on the net. Doesn't do them any harm, best used after medication

Yes Homer, have you used it? What is your opinion on it?

 

 

Hi

No I have not used it but have started using

a very similar product and here is why

Started 2013 racing very well after winning

2 on the trot at about 180 mile 3 yearlings

developed soft dropings (birds were droppings tested 3 weeks prior)

by Belge and were in excellent health

Sent a testing kit away to Belge and back came a BACTERIAL infection

With out more tests vet could not be positive what the infection was

but advised a treatment of 4/1

Knocked my birds for 6 and they never really recovered until the

season was nearly over

YOUR PIGEONS WILL REMAIN HEALTHY IF YOUR CLUBMATES HAVE NO HEALTH PROBLEMS

AND ENTER THEM IN RACES BESIDE YOURS

Will send you a pm what I have started using to be given on return from race

but it is a prebiotic and probiotic

Cheers
