| Important notes: |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| 1.) All pigeons should be clear of worms. Deworm birds just before breeding season. (Pigeons should be dewormed every 6 weeks) |
| |
|
|
|
|
| 2.) Pigeons should be vaccinated against Paramyxo virus 4-6 weeks before breeding. Pigeons should not be allowed contact with other pigeons |
| for 14-21 days. |
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| 3.) It is IMPORTANT to give Calcium supplement (Calcibird) before and during breeding. |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| 4.) The use of Probiotics (Entero Plus or Intestum) decreases bowel disease and leads to more healthy young. |
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| 5.) ALWAYS give your pigeons a Multivitamin & Mineral twice weekly as a routine supplement (Aminovit H; Vitaton 34; Viroban) |
| |
|
|
|
|
| 6.) Once eggs are laid and adults are sitting for 5-7 days you need to treat for Canker (Cankerex-Plus/Emtryl or Meditrich or Medizole ect.) for 3-5 days. |
| If treating for canker before breeding season, treat not less than 4 weeks prior to paring pigeons up as it can affect fertility. |
| Do not treat pigeons with Emtryl/Cankerex while they are feeding their young. |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| 7.) Give Intestum approx 2 days before hatching and then for 5 days continuously after hatching. |
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| 8.) Cock and Hen Fertility tablets should be given as per written instructions on container to any old or known problematic pigeons. |
| |
|
|
|
|
| 9.) Things to look out for: When breeding birds are on their second or third round of youngsters a lot of fanciers complain that the old birds are consuming |
| large amounts of grit and minerals and drinking excessive amounts of water with lots of watery droppings. In many cases this is an indication of a |
| salt (electrolyte) imbalance and in most cases this can be corrected by using Medilyte for 3 days in water and Aminovit H added to the corn. |
| |
|
|
|
|
| 10.) We also think all youngsters should be vaccinated against Paramyxo virus at weaning age. |
