I think what you are saying is how to treat respiratory and catarrh? This is a very hard question to answer without much more information. I do not sell medications or antibiotics only my own preventative products. Also, I do not know what medications you might have available to you in Malta. If you have these products available, mix two teaspoons of either [aureomycin or tetracylcine or doxcycline] with one teaspoon of Tylan in one gallon of drinking water and repeat this treatment for 5 days. Be sure and remove the grit from the loft during this treatment.

While you are working on getting the right medications to treat your problem try this: Put three regular size cloves of Garlic (or one clove of elephant garlic) in one quart of water, and puree in a blender until you cannot see garlic pieces any more just little particles floating in the water, add two tablespoons of honey and the juice from 1/2 a lemon. Pour this Mixture into a one gallon jug and fill the jug with fresh water, then immediately give this mixture to the birds as their drinking water. The antibiotic properties of garlic weaken over time, so it is best to make this mixture immediately before giving to the birds. The next day give plain water. Do this every other day always making a fresh mixture of garlic, honey and lemon, until the birds get better or you can start them on the tylan mixture. John Vance

" "12/07/2009 15:57","i'm looking for a program for the next racing season if i combine your super creatine maximune showstopper V/M booster,Super B. and Power drops would i be doing to much? e-mail [address removed] thank you rolf
Max Immune Plus, Show Stopper and Super Creatine Plus, are what I call my bread and butter products. These three are the foundation for a successful race season and a successful breeding season. They address the health needs and performance needs of your birds. If nothing else, get these three products and you will see success in your loft.

The V/M Booster and Super B are supplements and you should use these or some other vita-mineral products, throughout the year to make sure your birds have all the necessary building blocks for their bodies to grow and reach peak health and well being. The Power Drops, are a unique nutritional supplement / antimicrobial that has many useful functions during racing season and when birds are sick.

My answer to your question then, is you are not over doing it using these products as they are all useful at different times throughout the breeding and racing seasons. What they do is simply your loft management as the reduce or eliminate the need for many other products you are probably already using. Just follow the instructions and schedule of use and you will be fine! Feel free to call me and I will give you tips on how and when to use these products based on your loft needs and race schedule
" "12/11/2009 15:25","can you tell me the cost of useing your products for the ob /yb seson for a loft of 35 ob /30yb total cost with shipping and taxs Regards Terry McCullough (tree tops loft)

I would love to give you a simple answer, but everyone lives in different climates, has different race courses and prefers to race at different distances. Having said that, I will give you my general answer to your question.

Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper are my "bread and butter" health products. They are the basis of any program as success in racing depends upon healthy pigeons. For the size of your race teams, I recommend a single sized Max Immune Plus and a Double sized Show Stopper. Finally, for health I recommend a bottle of Power Drops. You use Power Drops on individual birds that seem off form or show signs of sickness, you use Power Drops on the feed the last meal before shipping the long hard races, you may use Power Drops to moisten the feed when you are using Show Stopper (do this at least once every other week).

For performance, I normally recommend Super Creatine Plus and Muscle Max. However, another product I developed this year Muscle Powder, might be more cost effective for your small teams, The answer to that question might require us talking on the phone about your race course and the temperatures your birds have to fly in, However, as an exersize to come up with a cost for you, I will calculate the cost using a container of Muscle Powder. I have created a sample invoice for you to read.

" "12/22/2009 10:14","dear mr. vance ,do you still carry the breeder pills !!! george stan from new jersey.

George, A good question that should be addressed as the breeding season approaches. I make those pills by hand and though I do have a machine that helps me, it is a lot of time and backache to produce the pills. This past year, I have introduced Power Drops and they seem to be a real success. I am considering discontinuing the No Light Green and Yellow Pills and suggesting the Power Drops for individual treatment of sick birds in the loft. That should work for most but will not be as good an option for the Baby Booster pills. For Baby Booster Pills, you can get the same results by making a slurry out of the Max Immune Plus and using an eye dropper to give the 6 - 10 day old babies an immuno-boost.

I am looking at a more automated pill production process, but for right now, consider the pills as unavailable. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me and I can give you some options on what to do
. " "12/23/2009 04:44","Hi John, can one give 5 star to one's stock birds if there are feeding youngsters? Regards Garett

Hello Garett, Five Star is the strongest of my products. Usually, Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper are all one needs to maintain top health in the loft. I do have customers that give Five Star to the breeders when there are youngsters in the nest. What you would want to watch for is how the babies under two weeks old respond to the product. The ones dependent on their parents especially those receiving pigeon milk, would be the ones to watch closely. If they have no problems with it, then continue giving as you wish. One of my customers had told me he experiences no problem but he mixes as recommended (1/2 Five Star and 1/2 Show Stopper)." "02/12/2010 19:32","Hi John, I just wanted to let you know your products are working great! I got MaxImmune, ShowStopper, creatine plus and Muscle Max from you and my birds are looking and training like never before. We had 2 old bird races already and i would have wont these if it had not been for the hawk. During the week they loft fly for 2 hrs like nothing and I only medicate with turbosole, baycox and doxy-t every 3 to 4 weeks . Also last year I had canker problems during breeding and this year I haven't yet.

Thank you for the post. Glad to hear your birds are maintaining good health and reaching top performance with the help of our products. Might I suggest, that since you have a year's experience with our products, that you try to depend a little less on the medications this year. You might find that my products (Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper) are very good at controlling your problems. Next time you order, ask for the Five Star product. Mixing Five Star with Show Stopper once every three weeks, will alleviate your concerns about cocci and canker meds.

I have no product that specifically treats respiratory, as I find respiratory to be mainly a secondary infection, that is, it usually becomes a problem as a result of another infection weakening the immune response. My defense against respiratory is to keep your birds healthy, through the use of Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper. When the pathogenic populations are kept in check, there is little opportunity for respiratory infection. However, I know that weather conditions, breezes, heavy rains, and drafty shipping crates, can weaken the bird's defenses, even when the best health products are being used.

Not knowing where you live or under what conditions you fly, I have no problem with you using Docy-T, should you feel the need to do so. Fortunately, my Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper products, each contain my Bio-Fresh probiotic blend, which is what you need to follow any course of medications or antibiotics. Good luck with the racing, hope to hear more of your successes in the future.
" "03/09/2010 03:55","Hi John I always read your latest announcements, and I noticed that you said on the health program you mention that on the 5 day after the race give show stopper, however this falls on the same day the birds are shipped. Can one give show stopper with say power drops,muscle max, super creatine all on the day of shipment? Regards G

Most fanciers have six days between the end of the race and the next shipping day. I do recommend giving Show Stopper on the fifth day after the race, and I do recommend giving the Super Creatine Plus and Muscle Max on the day before the day of shipping. So, this means Show Stopper, Super Creatine Plus and Muscle Max would all be given on the same day. The Power Drops are given on the last meal before shipping, which is usually the next day (the sixth day).

Sometimes, if the races are long distance races, then the club ships one day early (on day five instead of day six) and the birds spend one extra day on the truck. In that situation, you would give the Power Drops on day five also. Show Stopper on the morning meal and Power Drops on the meal before basketing. Or, you could give Power Drops with the Show Stopper on the morning meal and not later in the day. This is not rocket science, there is flexibility in how and when you use the products.

When there are six days between the last race and the day of shipping, many fanciers choose to give Super Creatine Plus and Muscle Max on the day of shipping but pull them out and replace with fresh clean water about four hours before taking the birds to the clubhouse. This four hours of fresh clean water allows the birds to normalize their water intake. On races where the birds spend an extra day on the truck, you can give Super Creatine Plus and Muscle Max right up until you basket for the club house, as they will have an extra day on the truck to normalize their water intake. If you need any instuctions specific to your own needs, feel free to call me!

My health program is fairly simple, the weekly usage of Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper. This has shown to be very sucessful in avoiding Youngbird sickness, in your loft. Additionally, you may use our Five Star product as needed to give an extra boost to your birds' defenses.

If you are mixing your youngbirds with other fancier's birds and as you state, YB sickness is making the rounds in your area, then along with the regular weekly use of Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper, give Five Star one day a week. If you think your birds already have it then give Five Star twice a week (or more), until symptoms subside. You can always call me for individual instructions based on the current health of your birds, John
" "07/19/2010 01:12","Dear Sir/Madam, I'm looking for a product could kill the fungus or FLEA appeared on the feather of my pigeon or improve the damaged feather caused by fungus and FLEA. Is it the product called COPPER SULFATE? do you have that one in your store? or do you have other product which is more effectively? I'm in Canada, can you ship the product for me? Looking for your reply. Thanks. Best Wishes Shirley

The product you are asking about is called Acidified Copper Sulfate. It is used by dairy and poultry owners, you should be able to find it at any farmers supply store or feed store. I do not carry that product nor do I carry any products for external parasites. You can also use 20 Muke Team Borax (found with laundry soap at the store), use about 2 Tbs per three gallons of bath water, every week and that will do the trick. A friend uses a splash of Malt Vinegar in her bird's bath water.

If you do use the Acidified Copper Sulfate, be careful as you can overdose the birds with this product. At the strength we get here in the states from the feed store, it is 1/4 tsp per gallon of drinking water for internal usage with the birds. I suppose that bath water could be a little stronger than that but the birds do drink a little during a bath so do not use to much. Hope this helps you, John
" "07/27/2010 06:55","Hey John, Ed Dunne from NY. I believe that these YB's are the healthiest I've had yet. They're flying like rockets. Races start in in 3 weeks. I'll let you know how they do then. I'm expecting to have a darn good season thanks to your great products. ED Dunne website www.crabappleloft.com

Ed, you are reaping what I call the Natural Health dividend. You have been using my product for three years now and that is three years of freedom from antibiotic and medication abuse. Your breeders have not had their internal organs weakened by antibiotic and medication usage, and their natural immune response to pathogens has been strengthen. All of which results in healthier breeders, race birds that maintain health and form longer during the race season and vibrant youngsters without setbacks coming out of the nest. You are reaping the cumulative health benefits that comes from using all natural solutions to your health needs. " "07/27/2010 09:40","John, I have been using your products for a couple of years now and the birds have been staying healthy I have been asked what I am doing different as I am flying better each year and I say ^" Just keeping them healthy. ^" I do have a question. When I purchased my system I bought ViraMax and no longer see it available. How long does it last? I have not needed it because the birds are healthy, and thought I only needed it if I had a problem. So I have most of it left. Gene Crocker

Gene, The ViraMax product was re-formulated and improved. It is now called Five Star. I am glad to hear that the Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper products are able to keep your birds healthy and that you have only found the need to use ViraMax occassionally. Since my products contain all natural ingredients, they do degrade over time. The next time you place an order, you should get a small container of the Five Star to replace the ViraMax product. Not so much because that product has weakened, but because the Five Star product is superior to the old formula (ViraMax) and is able to positively affect a much broader spectrum of potential problems.

I am happy to report that there are now three One Loft Races using Max Immune Plus, Show Stopper and (when needed) Five Star, as their health program. One of these One Loft Races, has over 1000 birds to keep healthy. I believe that the one loft race format is the harshest environment a loft manager will ever encounter. Seeing that my health products work under those conditions, is about the best endorsement I could ever receive. John

" "09/12/2010 07:59","can the creatine be giving on the same day as show stopper or max immune

Yes, you may use Super Creatine Plus on the same days as you use Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper. I do not recommend using Super Creatine Plus on the feed, as I think that releases to much of the active ingredients, all at one time. This can results in droppings getting soft for several hours afterwards as the bird's systems try and flush some of the excess ingredients out of their system. If you decide to give Super Creatine Plus on the feed, try giving it half on the morning feeding and half on the evening feeding.

I believe that Super Creatine Plus is best delivered in the Water where the birds can drink it over several hours. When administering Super Creatine Plus in the water, it is best not to mix it with any other ingredients that are highly acidic (apple cider vinegar, vitamin C, lemon juice, acorbic acid, acidic acid, lactic acid, etc. Our Super Creatine Plus product is micro-encapsulated which allows substantially more of the active ingredients to be taken up into the blood stream and delivered to the cells where they stored for use during the race. Highly acidic ingredients mixed with our Super Creatine Plus product would slightly degrade the protective mechanism and dilute the amount actually stored by the cells. It is best to give Super Creatine Plus without the addition of any acidic additives.

Super Creatine Plus is a blend of over 20 ingredients all of which allow your birds to perform at their top capabilities on race day. I prefer that you give it alone or with Max Immune Plus (or Show Stopper as outlined above) and try not to mix it with any other products that are highly acidic. Of course, you may also give Super Creatine Plus to your breeder (at 1/2 dose twice a week) starting a few weeks before breeding season and continue until the last youngsters are out of the nest. You will find old breeders start fertiling their eggs, the hens do not wear down when they get to their third rounds, and the youngsters mature faster and have better feathering and muscle structure.

Questions, can you use the POWER DROPS to moisten the feed to add the FIVE STAR and SHOW STOPPER to the grain? Also is it nessecary to use the MUSCLE MAX with the CREATINE?

Hello Keith, Yes, you can use the Power Drops to moisten the grain whan applying Five Star with Show Stopper. Wheather you use the Muscle Max with the Super Creatine Plus or not, is a matter of personal taste and the conditions.

Super Creatine Plus is one of my bread and butter products along with Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper. These products have been around since 2004 and are the basis of my health and performance program. Muscle Max is a product I developed later to address recovery in the birds after a race. As many fancier are always looking for an edge, some of my customers now use Muscle Max on the day of return (for which it was developed) and on the day of shipping or the day prior to shipping with the Super Creatine Plus.

Muscle Max is not necessary to use, but many think it gives them an edge. I suggest you use the Super Creatine Plus and see how it works for you and then decide whether you want to try the Muscle Max product after you are familiar with the performance effects of the Super Creatine Plus.

Congratulations on your win!" "01/31/2011 22:45","HI JOHN, WHEN USING YOUR WATER SOLUBLE PRODUCTS, DOES IT MAKE A DIFFERENCE IF YOU USE PLAIN TAP WATER, OR DO YOU NEED TO USE FILTERED TYPE WATER. THANKS JD

I would not use tap water unless it had set, with the lid off the container, for some time so that any bleach residuals from the water treatment plant can evaporate off. In warm weather this evaporation process takes about 30 minutes, in cooler weather it can take several hours. Most treated water has a residual of 2 - 5 ppm at the tap.

It isn't that you cannot use tap water directly, only that the higher the bleach residual in the water, the more it will react with the ingredients, which might slightly weakening their effectiveness. 2 - 5 ppm is not much but if it is easy for you to do so, it is better to let the water stand a while at room temperature, or filter the water before adding Max Immune Plus or Bio-Fresh as both contain friendly bacteria.

I have quite a few customers in your area using my Super Creatine Plus and Muscle Max Products. The success of my performance products, is not exclusively tied to the kind of creatine I use, but rather to the complete blend of performance ingredients found in the product.

You see, it is the unique blend of specialized ingredients found in Super Creatine Plus, that delivers the success my customers are experiencing. The complex energy producing processes that go on inside the muscles during the extreme stress of racing, need more than just the creatine ingredient (which plays the major role), they need many ingredients that all work in unison to keep the muscles firing at peak levels throughout the race. The muscles cells must be able to recycle and reprocess the "jet fuel" within the cells in order to keep the muscle cells working at their highest efficiency throughout the race and it is success at this process, that brings your birds to the front of the race sheet.

Of course, my performance products cannot overcome lack of motivation, or poor condition on the part of the birds, but if you have done your part in bringing the birds into good health and the birds are motivated to return home, then my products will give you that edge to push your birds to the front of the race sheet, week after week, throughout the race season.
" "04/13/2011 22:23","Trying to locate Sedochol. I seems like I got it from Pigeon Mall at one time?? DD

Thanks for thinking of us, but we only sell our own products which we manufacture ourselves. We have never carried any other products as our goal is to create a few all natural products that provide 100% of the needs for racing pigeon health and performance.

I can tell you that those customers who use our health and performance products have little to no need for other products. The benefit that one derives from the many good products out there (including Sedochol), are built into our few products. If you were using our Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper products with one of our performance products, you will have nearly all the benefit derived from a cabinet full of the vitamins, minerals, medications, antibiotics, pre-race, mid-race, post-race, moult, probiotics, conditioners, supplements, recuperative, etc. products sold by the Pigeon Supply houses .

" "12/16/2011 08:21","Our race day is SUNDAY; Is the following the correct schedule for your products: Sunday - Max Immune & Super Creatine Monday - Free Tuesday- Show Stopper & 5 Star Wednasday - Free Thursday - Show Stopper/5 Star & Super Creatine Friday - Free" "12/16/2011 08:24"," Correction on my last comment. OUR RACE DAY IS SATURDAY. We just changed to SAT. Races." "12/23/2011 08:58","For Saturday racing, the below schedule is correct, except that Five Star is not normally used on a weekly basis but rather maybe twice during the race season. The Show Stopper is applied as you listed, twice a week as a preventative, but the Five Star is normally reserved for special occasions like maybe three weeks before you start mixing your birds with other birds on the training truck and again three weeks after you start mixing your birds with other birds on the training truck or in the race crates. Five Star would also be used if sickness was circulating through other lofts especially when dealing with YB sickness.

I normally find that Max Immune Plus and Show Stopper used in the above schedule will successfully keep your birds healthy during the race season, except as noted, that is using Five Star twice during the season and whenever sickness is breaking out in other lofts that you ship with. The Five Star is my 'hammer product' and is not intended to be used weekly but rather only at strategic moments during the race season or breeding season. It is the polish you but on a healthy loft to really bring out the shine.

He puts Show Stopper in the water and the Power Drops in the water. A while back, I changed a supplier for two of my ingredients and the result was that the new supplier ground the ingredients to a fine powder while the old supplier sent a more granular product.

I had told people to put Show Stopper on the feed, mainly because these granular ingredients tended to sink to the bottom of a waterer. It seems now, that this is no longer a problem, so I am recommending now that you can use Show Stopper in the water, if you like.

However, you will need to shake the gallon jug vigorously, to get all the ingredients to disperse in the water, as one ingredient wants to float if not dispersed completely. None the less, this is good news.

This same customer said that he also puts the Power Drops in the water one day a week. It does seem to float a bit on the surface and the feathers next to the wattle seem to darken for a few days, but he likes the simpliness of delivering the Power Drops in the water and you might also consider it if you do not like putting it on the feed.

You can put either in the water or on the feed, but I prefer in the water. I actually put the friendly bacteria in the water the night before and then give in the morning. The bacteria will actually grow overnight, you can't see it, but it is happening. If I leave the water for a couple of days when it is hot out, you can sometimes see little clouds of the bacteria floating in the water. You have to use a lot to actually see it bloom but it does happen so I put mine in the drinking water the night before."

Both are transmitted over a secure server which you can identify for your self by looking at the URL address which will start with https instead of http " "04/13/2013 01:35","Aloha John. I must say using your products has really improved the health of my birds. Question...before using your product I bought a bunch of other products from the pigeon supply stores. Is there any harm using up the products(Natural brand Brewers yeast) while using your products? I imagine that I will have to lower the doses of the brewers yeast as to not hinder the benefits of your products. If it is not advisable to use the other products, let me know. Thank you for an awesome product" "04/13/2013 12:40","Once you are on my schedule for a while and know how the products are effecting the birds health, I have no problem with a customer using another product that does not clash with the goals of my products. What can be wrong with Brewers Yeast? Nothing that I know, however, I do have ample sources of B vitamins, amino acids and minerals in my products so all of the benefit is already present. However, yes go ahead and use the Brewers Yeast and notice for yourself if it gives any additional benefit to the birds. It could be especially useful in the off season when fanciers normally cut back from two meals a week with Show Stopper to one meal a week with Show Stopper. At that time of year, the addition of Brewers Yeast would fit nicely. So, if any of your sections are on Show Stopper one day a week, that is the best place to start using the Brewers Yeast.

One thing to watch for is if the dropping seem less firm after the addition of the Brewers yeast, that would be a sign that the birds are possibly getting to much supplementation and the body tries to flush off any excess vitamin B (water soluble) by pushing it out into the gastrointestinal tract.

By the way, I can learn and learn from my customers. Some use my products slightly differently than I suggest and get good results, some use other products that do not clash with mine. Normally though, the best results are obtained by using the simple schedule of use for my products and then after you are familiar with and approve of the results, go ahead if you feel the need and add something and see if it improves your loft health. If yes, continue, if no, disregard usage.

I try to create all inclusive health programs that are simple and cost effective, However, I do not know everything and I do not live in your area, use your loft with its strengths and weaknesses nor deal with the weather patterns and local environments that most of my customers deal with, so I understand that some might try and even like the addition of another product that they think helps in their area.
