What kind of age were they

I grew up racing in London n fanciers in London n Kent prided there self on birds being a1 condition marking night plus we had cheif marker ,,on north rd here lads turn up with baby's n fat eye n birds are marked and sent unwell to races how birds have to mix with these birds n boom come home n by Tues fat eye not once 3 seasons wasted with yb ,,
One thing I can say these birds that get marked up here n sent would be refused and flyer sent home in London.

Do you think the antibiotics you used didn’t wipe it out totally or it did and you was unlucky to pick it up again the following year maybe via other pigeons in the crate

The flyers send at all cost sending poorly birds up here on north rd ,conveyer told us as well .
