Is it a vaccine or simply an antibiotic?

Would it prevent catching respo issues from other birds in the crates
If it's a vaccine it won't stop them catching it. It might help them get over it though?

I know people often give them something along them lines on a Thursday but I thought that wax to suppress any Respo mild issues so I don’t understand how they prevent Respo but I would be interested in others views
That’s what I thought not a vaccine, I’ve a mate in Belgium that used one for a season and reckoned the birds had never flown so bad, whether it was the product or not who knows but he’s convinced it ruined the pigeons.

Not worth the risk

I fear things like respo but I think I will leave that alone
A course of Lincospectin is as good as anything.

2 products I am a fan of are Nasaline and Koudijs

Now Koudijs is labelled as a fungal treatment, but I'm sure it can only address respiratory issues in a favourable way too
They changed the ingredients of koudjs now mate its OK but nothing like the original one shame
