Dave :

Was he jabbed with a syringe or a gun ?

Sorry for the delay coming back to you Mil
I only just picked up your post.
He was jabbed with a gun mate - does that make any difference?
He is just starting to fly a bit better now.

The one year I lost one cock (died) and 3 had to be put down 48 hrs later because of being jabbed with a gun - hence why I asked the question

My cousin just had 30 ob with a reaction to the nobivac vaccine where gun pumps it in two fast causing a problem where the vaccine sits under skin going rotten the holes in there necks where unbelievable from using the gun n oil base vaccine, I like oil base vaccine but done with syringe n needle.

Was dome with a gun but with columbavac dont know if thats oil based or otherwise.
He appears to be back to his normal "shining" self now
And while looking to see if it is an oil based vaccine I actually read the instructions (first time for everything) and it says that ot is very common for birds to have an adverse reaction in the form of a transient swelling at the site of the injection.
Luckily, there doesnt seem to be any damage around thearea at all.
Think I will leave him out this week and give him an extra week rest before Pau.
Thanks everyone

Columbivac ain't oil base pal ,
Just get a gun n pull trigger with vaccine in ,it will spray 4 meters so imagine the speed that goes in to the pigeons,,I prefer a needle done slow n then rub the area with ya finger so there's no lump.

I am going to watch with interest.
I hope he does well from Pau for you.

Cheers Murray he appears to be back to his old self now and no long term effects from it other than losing a bit of weight. So I am planning to build him back up with a heavy protein mix for a week and then a fat mix for the following 2 weeks unless any of you aces can advise me differently.
