Less than a month until pairing, all attention turns to health. Checked most of the birds last few days and most on their last flight and some too fat. Got myself a microscope and have been analysing all kinds of things, dog hair, human hair etc. Have read countless articles and books and maybe tomorrow will move on to the pigeon sh** lol. I worry that after a life time in pigeons u will now become neurotic and over test looking for things I would usually not bother with.

Anybody had a microscope and had results go backwards due to over treatment? Just a thought

Throat swab and dropping test from Belgica Deweerdt is enough for me these days if I had a microscope I would frighten the sh** oot myself.

I always test my own doos and also send my droppings away for independent testing but I had a fancier ask me to test his droppings last year as he thought that there is was something wrong I did and found really bad cocci and canker which he treated and went onto went onto win every yb race Barr two so I think this shows testing can help imo
