dal2 Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 Think if you know your birds you can usually tell somethings not right , a test is just to confirm something is wrong and what it is .
VMS Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 So most dont get their birds tested and dont treat....is it any wonder there is heavy losses due to ill health...or am i missing somethingI would say it's the complete opposite it's the birds that are propped up by over treating that are the problem and my heathy birds have to go into a basket with the crap
REDCHEQHEN Posted October 28, 2016 Report Posted October 28, 2016 The majority of people in my club who do not treat their birds never win either. The winners come from lofts whose owners visit the vet and treat their birds! About 75% of the members of my club use vets and 50% on a regular basis There is such a thing as neglect, and you cannot go through season after season ignoring a birds health. And that is what not treating your birds is in my eyes - neglect. I don't see it as anything to brag about. JMO

JMODoctors advise human beings to resist using antibiotics due to resistance and advise to let most conditions run there course is that neglect or reckless advice not for me common sense,sadly common sense does not seem to prevail in pigeon racing to win meaningless club races IMO,have to add my birds are not pets if they were I would not be in the sport,too many keeping pets in the sport,but each to their own

JMO Sorry but that is the biggest load of crap ive heard in my life......NEGLECT ? so if your birds fly 2 hours when let out do they need a vet to check them? If my birds were ill, ide know, and I would use a vet, but until so.....I wont.

dal2 Posted October 29, 2016 Report Posted October 29, 2016 Treating pigeons? Does that mean antibiotics or just run of the mill things that pigeons get from time to time (mine anyway). Meaningless club races? HHhhmmmm
BANDIT Posted October 29, 2016 Author Report Posted October 29, 2016 Do the top sprint flyers treat on a weekly basis or as ive been told only give their birds food and water no treatments what so ever..........
