The subject of drug treatments applied to pigeons at rest is a delicate one. There is constant talk about the usefulness of this approach, which some pigeon lovers consider mandatory, but opinions are divided. But as most pigeon breeders seek to get the best results in the competitive season, being aware that they can only be awarded perfectly healthy specimens, "winter treatments" become a goal to check in many pretentious aviaries. Each breeder draws up his own strategy to follow, combining the experience gained in the field with the advice of veterinarians or with the recommendations of drug companies.

It is true that an organism that does not suffer from any disease does not need treatment with synthetic products. But how can we tell if a pigeon is 100% clinically healthy? Can we have this certainty based only on our capacity for empirical observation? The question is rhetorical, and the answer is self-evident: only a thorough laboratory examination can confirm or disprove this. Even so, a specialist veterinarian can sometimes encounter problems in making a differentiated diagnosis, the pathologies being extremely complex and nuanced.

In Romania, in this field as well, things have started to show obvious progress, many breeders understanding the significance of applying targeted treatments, prescribed by a specialist, based on detailed laboratory analyzes. And the big winner of this approach will be first of all the pigeon, which will benefit from such an effective curative treatment, strictly for the condition or conditions it suffers from. If he turns out to be suffering from something.

Of course, it would be ideal to prevent, not treat, but prophylaxis has also become difficult in today's pigeon-loving, especially among chickens and young, where the immune system of birds is subject to viruses and bacteria. aggressive and more lethal. In fact, there are more and more cases of unexplained diseases of mature pigeons, situations that even the most experienced breeders have not encountered so far. All that remains for the pigeon fancier is to keep an eye on the farm throughout the year, then to intervene as soon as he notices a decline in health among the pigeons. And very importantly, to develop a clear vaccination schedule for birds, which they should strictly follow, using only vaccines with proven effectiveness and from trusted manufacturers.

In the following, we present a scheme for applying the treatments during the winter, with the products created by the legendary Dr. Peeters Norbert. Noting that the time interval and the order of their application may be subject to changes or adjustments, depending on the specifics of each farm.
