Rescipes / Preventions & Remedies This section has been along time coming. It's been requested by countless Pigeon Fanciers from around the world via email and phone for us to post or have a section dedicated to Health, Preventatives and Training. Although we strongly recommend that you goto to your local vet and ask him/her for their advice and buy their products, we use a combination of Vet and Natural products to sustain the high level of health with all our pigeons irrespective if the're Stock or Racers. The Health mixtures, Preventatives and Training methods below, have been brought to you from many experienced flyers mostly from Sydney and Queensland, in Australia and other parts from around the world. We urge you - If your unsure that you ask your 'fellow' flyers (or ask us) for an opinion first, before applying any of the methods below. We always get asked the question "what are the best health and training systems?" In reply we say "Their are no right or wrong methods or any secrets, just simply do what you can afford with your budget and time. It would be to anyones advantage to keep to the KISS (Keep It Simply Stupid) method, ask as many questions, do as much research as you can do, keep your loft and training grounds as clean and tidy as possible and you will be fine and have a successful season".
