Droppings Tests

[mickee]

Shroeder Tollisan offer a full round off tests for Fungal ,Yeasts, Cocci, Canker,Chlamydia, Bacteriology, Parasitology, all for €20

This is all carried out using dropping samples only. no crop swabs are used,

I always thought you would need throat swabs taken for some tests and I believe it used to be a blood sample for Chlamydia,

I had the full range of tests carried out using droppings samples only and the results were all clear

except for a slight cocci count, I was obviously very pleased with the results but am I kidding my self??

I picked up the test kit at Epsom Show so I thought I would use it and was assured that droppings only were needed for

the full tests. So what are the members opinions???

They are a professional organisation. If they say these tests can be done on a droppings sample I would believe then. I have no idea how accurate the results are compared with traditional methods.

Results done by any method can only be as accurate as the sample is representative.

I am not questioning whether they are a professional outfit or not.different people different opinions,last year I had Belgica de weerdt

Do a full test on my birds but I had to send droppings and throat swabs the results were slight cocci and slight canker everything else was clear, I bought from them cocci tabs and canker tabs but never used them, Shroeder Tollisan said to me to just give 2days Baycox to treat the cocci, So two very good vets

Two different opinions hence my question

If you are not questioning their professionalism Why did you ask if all these tests could be done on a dropping sample alone.

 

I don't think you need any further input from me

That's for sure i think the 50 cocci tabs and 50 canker tabs were £33+ with postage

when i done my own dropping test a few days ago i noticed some cocci but couldnt see any signs of canker but when i done a throat and crop swab i seen they had canker so put them on a treatment ,so what i dont know is it possible to have canker in the throat and crop but not show in droppings or did i miss them in the droppings test

As far as I know you can't detect canker from the droppings.
