Tony my old sec from the club Brian Walsh, would come to my loft and inject my youngsters, They would be around 4 to 5 weeks old. all youngsters injected would be recorded by myslf for my own racords. And also from Brian for the club. The cost at that time i paid 20p Per youngster. I hope this helps.Tony-P- wrote: Thu Jul 16, 2026 10:58 am Thanks for putting this video on Devo, very interesting to watch and to see the Y/Bs getting vaccinated

Before i finished with the keeping of my racing pigeons, i came across a product through a friend. I also got offered 5% of the company to promote this product. I have to say it worked for my birds, and for others.

Unfortunately Tony we have no option about vaccinating for paramyxovirus if we want to race. If we did I wouldn’t do it. I do mine myself with another club member or Roxanna. Records have to be kept, type of vaccine used, batch number, expiry date, date of vaccination and ring numbers of all birds vaccinated.

Just to confirm Tony. The only vaccination that is mandatory is the one for paramyxovirus. I do believe there are only 2 companies that produce it one is oil based and the other water based.
You don't NEED any other vaccinations to race your birds and neither do the birds but anything else you give is your choice.
