    Glad you've sorted the roof out mate,
    I would have gone down the baytril route myself as well personally,
    Others things to keep an eye on are vermin, cleanliness and. Moisture,
    I'd give them a scrape then brush the loft with a disinfectant also bleach your drinkers and disinfect your feeders too,
    Then get plenty of vitamins and minerals back into their bodies

    Sorry to hear ... you know what to do clean clean clean even use a 10% of bleach in water sprayed around once you have cleaned up works as well and its cheap.. ... you look fed up to be honest ... 4 in 1 harkers is great to use ... as the others have said get in touch with your club ...

    can you get some advice from your pigeon racing club fanciers they maybe can help or advise you.

    Get them tested. It's the only way to know for sure what's happening.
    If it is salmonella, I cannot stress enough how important it is to clean and spray all surfaces with Virkon S or equivalent. It is shed in the droppings and picked up by others that way. Every day for the 14 days of treatment and then in the 14 days before vaccination.
    I heard you say you've been unable to scrape because of work. My advice is to try and find a way to do it mate.

      Testing is of course always best, just that on the run up to Xmas, I'm short of the funds for it unfortunately! 😭

    It too cold and going to get colder, why do you want to rush into breeding for?

      Not in a rush per se, just want to have them ready!
