Neil what your thoughts with the quill boost, are you still using it at the dosage on the bottle per litre or have you diluted it a bit more.
Also you said about the iodine do you still use this now once a week or only in the racing season, & you said about the Acriflavine is that instead of the iodine or as well as please.

Yes quill every day full dose the pigeons drink normal amounts

Dropping are perfect , I believe the pigeons look really good of course they have had a moult so could be that but they handle silky and I’m happy my mates been in it 3 weeks and says he’s can see a difference in the birds and droppings
Iodine once a week on a Wednesday as it’s easy
Using the aviform natural respo stuff on a Saturday as I have half a bottle

I use the Acriflavine during the race season as I like one drop up each nostril if time rather than throat or food as it only works on what it touches I believe not like a antibiotic so it like it to run through the nasal passage
But that needs time to do
ordered iodine that King put a link up for, to give on a Wednesday, can you give me the dosage mls per litre in the water please.
