dock where trucks may back in for unloading as well as<br />

a place to unload all the international containers. With all this<br />

new space, we still use two other off site storage buildings. One of the biggest benefits to our visiting customers is the location. We are on Rte.<br />

51 which is also called Constitution Blvd. This location is accessed from the Pennsylvania Turnpike or Rte. 376. The address is for the city of<br />

New Brighton, which is our mailing address, but we are across the river from New Brighton. We encourage our customers to visit during normal<br />

business hours, 9-5 and we are opened Monday thru Friday, but if you would like to visit on a weekend, arrangements could be made. The new<br />

location, as of March 2017, is about 20 minutes from the old location, but if you want to visit our lofts, you must call and let us know. My lofts<br />

are at our old location, just outside of Beaver Falls, Pa.<br />

5 JERRY'S TIPS PRICES ON FEEDING SUBJECT TO - WATER CHANGE- FEED - CARE<br />

5<br />

There is no product anyone sells that will replace sound loft management. If you are a beginner or “old pro”, it makes good sense to invest in a<br />

good book that will answer many basic or often complex questions. #9037 or #804 are both good books which cover all phases of pigeon raising.<br />

The book on pigeon health that I recommend is #805 or #9005. If you are in the white dove release business, I suggest "White Pigeons, The Color<br />

of Money".<br />

FEEDING<br />

If you fly, show or race your birds, you must control the feed consumption. If you feed your birds and after 20 minutes or so, there is still feed left,<br />

you are feeding too much. If they eat everything but leave some that they don’t like, I give them the leftovers the next day. Do not allow uneaten<br />

feed to stay on the floor overnight, it will become contaminated and may result in sick birds. I suggest feeding twice a day, morning and evening.<br />

I strongly recommend that you do your best to feed a mixed grain or pellet that is made for pigeons.<br />

WATER<br />

Many diseases are transmitted through the drinking water. It seems like birds think of their drinking water as a target. I’ve yet to find a waterer that<br />

the birds can’t foul. It is a must to change water every day, twice a day is even better. When adding medications or vitamins to the water, it is even<br />

more important to change the water every day. If you place the water drinker in the same place every day, make sure the area under and around the<br />

drinker is dry. Dampness creates a perfect environment for disease to develop. I move my waterer from place to place, thus allowing each location<br />

to dry. My favorite drinker and the only one I use is the #315 Large Ideal Drinker. It is easy to clean and holds a gallon, which is important when<br />

adding medications, vitamins, etc. to the water. When the directions are to add to a gallon of water, I do not have to measure out a gallon of the<br />

water. I just add the product and fill the pan. I also do not use a heater. I just use two bowls for each pen, bring a clean one out, and bring the<br />

used one back in the house for cleaning. Keep in mind that if you use lots of Apple Cider Vinegar, stay away from metal drinkers. This is true of<br />

any product that is acidic. The acid eats away at the metal. The same is true of grit.<br />

GRIT<br />

Grit consumption changes from season to season. When you are breeding, they seem to eat more grit than feed. The reason for this is the production<br />

of eggs in the hen and the mating process. Make sure good clean grit is in front of them at all times. Do not rely on granite grit alone. Your<br />

birds need grit containing trace minerals. If you are using granite grit for chickens, I would suggest you add grit concentrate, #676, to your grit. If<br />

you are using a regular pigeon grit, keep it clean and fresh. I use pigeon grit, but also add pick pots, #5062. The bird’s body tells it what it needs<br />

and you’ll notice a change in consumption as the seasons change.<br />

OVERCROWDING<br />

Birds are very fast breeders and without planning, most people have too many birds. Never a day goes by that when I ask a fancier how many<br />

birds they have, the answer is “too many”. If you don’t have the heart to cull or a way to dispose of birds, plan for the future. The best thing to do<br />

is to separate all your hens and cocks and put them together only when it is breeding season. Another method is the use of wood or plastic eggs,<br />

#155 or #157. Dispose of a freshly laid set of eggs and the birds will set the dummy eggs for up to three weeks, thus slowing down the young bird<br />

production.<br />

Have you thought of throwing one egg, from each clutch, away? When the pair raises only one young at a time, the young are usually healthier<br />

and grow faster. If you allow your loft to become overcrowded, disease will pay your birds a visit.<br />

FLOOR COVERING<br />

Nothing is more important than having a dry loft. Over the years I have tried just about every type of floor covering. In 2008, I ordered a new<br />

product from Belgium called Natural Granulated Floor Covering. The floor covering is a natural product consisting of lava drawn from the subsoil<br />

and has exceptional absorbing power. A very dry floor helps stop the contamination cycle of parasites such as Coccidiosis and eggs of intestinal<br />

worms. I used a small pitch fork to pick up the clumps under perching areas and rake the floor. I replace the floor covering once or twice a year.<br />

I think this is the best floor covering you could possibly use. The next best would be sand, followed by corn cob. Do not use straw or hay, as it<br />

holds moisture. Shavings and sawdust are messy and dusty.<br />

FEED<br />

I strongly suggest you feed mixed grain pigeon feed or pigeon pellets, and suggest you stay away from scratch feed or poultry pellets. If you can<br />

not find a pigeon feed in your area, check with the companies that advertise in this catalog. They may know someone in your area. Breeders may<br />

share with you where they get their feed. Keeping your feed vermin proof is very important, and a plastic or metal barrel with a lid, is a good way to<br />

do that. I use a 5 gallon bucket with a lid to hold feed in small loft sections and most of the time I use plastic trash cans with a lid.<br />

GENERAL INFORMATION<br />

If there was just one loft management plan, I’d write a book about it. A sound plan really is one that works for you and most importantly, works for<br />

the well being of your pigeons. The plan is really based on you, the breed(s) you raise, what part of the country you are in and whether you show,<br />

race, fly or use your birds for ceremonies. Other variables include loft location, type of feed, the hours you have available and on and on.<br />

There are some basics however. I talk to people all day about the health of their pigeons. Most people do not vaccinate and all people should. It is<br />

something anyone can do. You need to vaccinate for Paramyxovirus (PMV) and Paratyphoid (Salmonella). The PMV and Paratyphoid may be done<br />

at the same time, and the best place to vaccinate the bird is behind the neck. I still use the regular syringe and needles #177 and #505 on page<br />

33. Should you have a question or concern in regards to vaccinating, call Jerry at <strong>Foy's</strong>.<br />

6 JERRY'S PRICES TIPS SUBJECT ON PIGEON TO CHANGE HEALTH<br />

6<br />

I am not a big believer in using antibiotics or medicines as preventatives. I think you should have medications on hand in case of an outbreak. I do<br />

believe you should treat, before breeding, for worms, Canker and Coccidiosis. We have individual treatments for all three. You should rotate, from<br />

time to time, to prevent your birds from building up a resistance. 3-1 Powder treats worms, canker and coccidiosis.<br />

What should I have on hand? I tell people to try to prevent and treat only if you must. Yes, you should have a few meds on hand, but with today's<br />

fast shipping, most products would be received in 2-3 days. I would suggest having on hand, products for canker, worms and Coccidiosis. That<br />

product would be 3-1 Powder (#2500).<br />

One eyed colds are quite common and sometimes all you need to do is remove the perch. Some birds roost in a draft and you do not even know<br />

it. If moving the perch doesn't help, I would try Spiradox Tablets or 1 Drop 1 Eye 1 Time. A good treatment for Paratyphoid (Salmonella) is Furazolidone,<br />

Furaltadone 20% or Typhoid Cure.<br />

Coccidiosis is easy to control, but keep in mind that Coccidiosis will develop resistance to a drug and I strongly suggest you rotate drugs after 2<br />

or 3 uses. Testing your droppings, through <strong>Foy's</strong>, will reveal many problems such as Coccidiosis and Worms.<br />

I like to keep tablets around to treat individual birds when it is the only bird that is ill in my whole flock. I segregate it and treat individually. If I am<br />

not sure what the problem is, I use Divet or Amoxicillin tablets. If I suspect Canker, I would suggest Aviotrich Tablets and if I suspect worms I would<br />

try Wormout Plus Tablets or Ekto/Endo. The best thing to do, when not sure what the problem is, would be to SEND IN A SAMPLE OF THE<br />

DROPPINGS. We have a Vet, who is also a pigeon fancier, as an associate. He will look at the droppings under a microscope, and in most cases,<br />

tell you what the problem is and suggest a method of treatment. For more information and how to send the droppings, please go to page<br />

17.<br />

Parasites are always a problem. I dip my birds in a 5 gallon bucket, with about 3 gallons of warm water, mixed with Permectrin II, as directed.<br />

Dusting also helps control parasites on the birds, although most drop off when the birds fly. I would suggest Diatomaceous Earth as a dusting<br />

powder. #572 Bug Spray does an excellent job. Do not dip birds on a hot day.<br />

Be sure to remember that when you use any drug on a pigeon, you must not eat them. No one really knows how long it takes for a drug to clear<br />

out of a pigeon’s system. If you’re raising them to eat, then make it natural for your health’s sake.<br />

<strong>Foy's</strong> was founded in 1883 and we are enjoying the 135th year of the company known as <strong>Foy's</strong>. We purchased the company in 2000, and we<br />

are just the third family to own the company. The company is owned by Vickie and Jerry Gagne. My daughter, Kim Hare, is the president of <strong>Foy's</strong>.<br />

Employees include Gina, another daughter, is in charge of inventory control and any other job requiring her attention. Sherry, who is enjoying twelve<br />

years of service, Veronica's our web designer,advertising design expert and 5 year employee, Sam is my Granddaughter and packs, forklift driver,<br />

handles the phone and is there whenever we need muscle.<br />

I spend a lot of my time talking or answering e-mail inquiries, in regards to health concerns with pigeons. I welcome your calls, and will do my<br />

very best to help, but you should be prepared to answer questions, which will help me help you. I strongly suggest you try to develop a relationship<br />

with a veterinarian when possible. Some of the questions I will ask, and I hope you will be able to answer; What do the birds look like? How do<br />

they act? What color are their droppings? What kind of pigeons do you have? Do you feed grains or pellets? What treatments have<br />

you tried and for how long? There will be other questions based on your answers, but the initial questions are very important. Over the years I<br />

have had thousands of discussions of health issues in regards to pigeons. Over the last few years, I have compiled a list on issues and answers to<br />

questions asked. I add to this list on a regular basis, and this information is supplied to all of <strong>Foy's</strong> employees to use when asked about a pigeon's<br />

health issues. If you would like a copy of the HEALTH TIPS I have created, contact <strong>Foy's</strong> on how to get the exact same pamphlet I have created<br />

for all of our employees. Jerry’s health tips are available. I write health tips based on all the questions I receive from customers, and offer these to<br />

my employees, as an aid in answering questions and learning more about pigeon health. If you would like a copy of these, JERRY’S TIPS may be<br />

purchased for only $10.00, this includes postage. Ask for #9009, JERRY’S HEALTH TIPS.<br />

We sell quite a few perches and each fills a particular need or situation. I raise solid (White) Racing Homers, regular Racing Homers, and<br />

unusual colored Homers. Because I am trying to save cleaning time, I find that my favorite perches are the Space Saver and the Block Perch. The<br />

question arises about bird droppings hitting the bird on the perch below. If your birds are healthy it is like water off a ducks back. Recent addition<br />

of the nest box choices has created new favorites, once more, because they are easy to clean. I use all the different nest boxes so that I may share<br />

my favorites. I use different feeders depending on my needs. All of my lofts use the wood feeder with guard. I use the #1073 for grit, and each of<br />

the other sizes #1070, #1074 or #1075, depending on the number of birds in each section,<br />

I realize that many who receive this catalog are just beginning in pigeons and here are some random hints: It is OK to handle eggs or young<br />

in the nest. I have switched young around from nest to nest, as long as the age is close to the same. Birds do not need a bath, but do love to take<br />

baths. Dump the bath water as soon as they stop using it. All birds should be vaccinated to prevent PMV, Pigeon Pox, and Paratyphoid. Change<br />

the drinking water every day. Separate the young into a separate section as soon as they are old enough. You can tell if the young is old enough<br />

by checking under the wings. If you see no bare skin, then the bird is old enough to be moved.<br />

I certainly hope this information is of some use to you and remember….the reason we have so many choices is that everyone has a different<br />

idea or need.<br />

7 JERRY'S TIPS - NEW PRICES BIRDS SUBJECT - DISEASE TO - CHANGE BREEDING - FEED AND GRIT<br />

7<br />

NEW BIRDS IN THE LOFT<br />

I receive so many questions in regards to sickness in a loft. In a great<br />

majority of the questions, I find out that the breeder has recently<br />

added new birds to the loft, and did not quarantine the birds for a<br />

period of time. You may be adding perfectly healthy birds, but either<br />

your birds or the new birds are not resistant to the same strains of a<br />

disease, and sickness may be introduced to the loft. It is best, if possible,<br />

to keep the birds in a separate building, if this is not an option,<br />

keep the new birds separate as much as possible. Separation should<br />

be for a minimum of 30 days. While in quarantine, keep a close watch<br />

and make sure the birds are healthy. You may want to treat with 3-1<br />

powder which treats the 3 most common problems that pigeons<br />

have. If you observe what you think might be a problem, call us at<br />

Foy’s and we will discuss it. Over crowding your loft is an invitation for<br />

disease to rear it’s ugly head. The birds are in the best health during<br />

cold months, but in the warm weather, over crowding will create problems<br />

in a hurry. A cubic meter would be approximately 40”high X 40”<br />

wide X 40” long. This is the space one pigeon would take.<br />

DISEASE BY NAME<br />

• PMV - Birds should not be vaccinated any earlier than 3 weeks of<br />

age. Symptoms become worse when the bird is under any type<br />

of stress. Vaccination during an outbreak is recommended. An<br />

improvement may be noticed in the droppings and the watery<br />

appearance will improve. No improvement to the symptoms<br />

such as shaking, twisted neck, flying irrationally, will occur after<br />

vaccination. Serious loft cleaning and regular disinfection of food<br />

and water containers with bleach is suggested. Young birds need<br />

two shots. They have not developed any immune system and the<br />

first shot is a primer. The second shot, 30 days later, is the anti<br />

body. Adult Birds: The first shot delivers the immunity and the<br />

second is a booster.<br />

• Coccidiosis - Treatments should be rotated between 2 or 3<br />

different products as resistance to a particular product develops<br />

after just a few treatments.<br />

• Canker - Treatment should also be rotated between products to<br />

prevent resistance.<br />

• One Eye Colds - A wet eye may be an early sign of Ornithosis or<br />

may simply be a result of injury. It may also be the result of a<br />

draft or poor ventilation. If it is a harmless inflammation it will<br />

disappear as a result of isolation in a warm, draft free location in<br />

as short a period as 24 hours.<br />

• Adenovirus - Large volume of droppings, foul smelling and green<br />

in color. Many times complicated by e-coli and often result in<br />

rapidly lost condition and high death rate.<br />

• Worms - Pigeons with hairworms are very prone to Coccidiosis.<br />

Coccidiosis is resistant to treatment until the hairworm is controlled.<br />

• Pigeon Pox - Adult pigeons can show lesions and be completely<br />

symptom free within three to four weeks, or more.<br />

• Herpes Virus - In young birds, symptoms include being hunched<br />

up, fluffed feathers and they move jerkily. Odd head positions<br />

and crooked neck are common. Adult birds may act depressed,<br />

lose weight, have nasal discharge, dirty wattles and yellowish<br />

liquid in the mouth.<br />

• Mycoplasmosis - Many times slime found in the throat and<br />

threads of slime run from the throat to the roof of the mouth. You<br />

can sometimes press down on the nostrils and push out slime.<br />

• Ulcerative Enteritis - Symptoms include the sudden onslaught of<br />

profuse, smelly diarrhea followed by sudden weight loss. The crop<br />

may be filled with undigested seeds.<br />

• PMV and Paratyphoid - Vaccines may be given simultaneously to<br />

adult birds.<br />

Paratyphoid- I am of the opinion that Paratyphoid is an epidemic in<br />

this country and is a very difficult disease to get rid of. Symptoms may<br />

include some or all. Twisted Neck, difficulty in flying or eating, dropped<br />

wing, wing boil, limp, green droppings, young dying in the shell, one<br />

young dies in the nest and the other seems fine, young dying after<br />

they are weaned and more. As you will no doubt realize, it is difficult<br />

to diagnose Paratyphoid, if you have concerns that your birds have<br />

Paratyphoid, contact Foy’s.<br />

BREEDING SEASON<br />

I always recommend separating the hens and cocks when you are<br />

done with the breeding, until the next breeding season. If you are unable<br />

to do this, close off access to the nest boxes, Yes, some will insist<br />

on breeding and lay eggs on the floor, but you cannot stop that.<br />

Separating gives them a break and time to rest from the stress of<br />

mating, laying eggs, and caring for young. Pigeons lay two egg, and<br />

the incubation does not start until the second egg is laid. Pigeons<br />

must be offered a nest box, nest bowl and in most cases, nesting<br />

material such as tobacco stems or straw, not hay. Some breeders<br />

use only beach sand. The cock sets the eggs from about 11 A.M. to<br />

4 P.M. the hen the rest of the time. If you want to know which is the<br />

hen, go in a dusk or night, she will be on the eggs. I mark my cocks<br />

with a blue marker band and my hens with a pink. If you want to<br />

reduce the number of young you raise, throw one of the eggs away,<br />

the one resulting young will usually be stronger as it does not have<br />

to compete for food. You can switch eggs and young around, just so<br />

they are about the same age. You can handle the eggs at any time.<br />

If you do not want to raise any more young, give the pair a bit of<br />

rest, and replace the eggs with false eggs. Breeding is stressful, this<br />

is a good time to supplement the feed or water with vitamins and<br />

probiotics, a good choice is Ultra Pro. Pigeon grit is a must during<br />

breeding season.<br />

FEED & GRIT<br />

I would not recommend any feed accept feed made for pigeons.<br />

Mixed grains or pigeon pellets are the best. If you are medicating<br />

your birds with a med that ends in “cycline” take the grit away<br />

Grit is a must, and once again, I recommend a pigeon grit, not a<br />

poultry grit. If you can not get pigeon grit, consider our Grit Concentrate,<br />

added to poultry grit. Lack of grit could result in rough or soft<br />

eggs, and sometimes it will result in a temporary inability to walk,<br />

due to lack of calcium, right after the hen lays.<br />

MISCELLANEOUS<br />

• High pitched whooping sounds may not be respiratory. It could<br />

be a small feather or grain husk caught against the windpipe. It,<br />

will most of the time, work its way out.<br />

• A chest that blows up like a balloon may be caused by a ruptured<br />

air sac leaking under the skin. This many times is caused during<br />

flight and is probably due to a blow or strain. Usually, all that is<br />

needed is rest but air can be bled thru a hypodermic needle.<br />

• Amprolium - Do not combine with anything containing Vitamin<br />

B during and for a few days after using amprolium.<br />

• Oxytetracycline - May be combined with Tylan.<br />

• Chlortetracycline - May be combined with Tylan.<br />

• Tylan - May be combined with Oxytetracycline and Chlortetracycline.<br />

• Doxycycline - May be combined with Tylan.<br />

• Grit - If you are using any medicine that the name ends with<br />

"cycline", take away the grit.<br />

• Eggs hatch 18 days after the second egg is laid.<br />

• Wet or discolored nose wattles are an indication of an upper<br />

respiratory problem. It also may be there because they are<br />

feeding young.<br />

• If you have had pigeon flies in your birds, do not use loft<br />

scrapings in or near gardens or flower beds. Newly hatched<br />

pigeon flies will return to the loft.<br />

• Think long and hard about introducing new pigeons, especially<br />

youngsters, into your loft. Your birds could infect the new birds<br />

or the new birds could infect young birds.<br />

• Add 2 cc Ivermectin Inj. to each gallon of bath water. It will kill<br />

lice and if they drink it, it will help worm but may not be strong<br />

enough to be counted on as a complete wormer.<br />

• Put your perches on one wall, when possible, this will make it<br />

easier to clean up droppings which will mostly be under the<br />

perches.<br />

• Ronidazole is the most popular Canker treatment, but has been<br />

used for so long, that pigeons have started to resists it’s benefits.<br />

The 10% is no longer strong enough, double the normal dosage<br />

of the 10% Ronidazole or switch to the stronger Ronidazole 25%.<br />

• Pigeons moult once a year. If you notice feathers all over the loft,<br />

and this continues for a period of time, your flock is most likely<br />

going thru the moult. There will be all kind of feathers, not just the<br />

large wing feathers. Give consideration to a product designed to<br />

create a good moult.<br />

• Do not give Garlic before a race or flight.<br />

• Want to add weight to your pigeons? Try raw peanuts, unsalted<br />

of course.<br />

• If your birds go light at about two weeks old, parents stop feeding,<br />

parents drink a lot of water and the parents go crazy for grit and eat<br />

just about all the grit you put In front of them, these are typical signs<br />

of Clostridium crop and intestinal infection. Try using a combination<br />

of Muscle & Wing plus Entromune and Avio Gel for 7 days. Dose all<br />

ill birds separately with Muscle & Wing for 7 days.<br />

• If a single bird in the flock shows difficulty in breathing, with a<br />

whistling sound, the most likely causes are either a fungal or<br />

Canker.<br />

• If a squab is Gurgling, it is most common just prior to weaning,<br />

often there appears to be very little wrong with these youngsters<br />

and the problem usually goes away when weaned.<br />

• Metronidazole can be combined with Spiramycin. This combination<br />

is highly effective against enteritis and respiratory infections.<br />

• The difference between bacterial infections and viruses is that you<br />

can kill bacterial infections with antibiotics but you cannot kill<br />

viruses. The virus must run its course.<br />

• Try swapping drugs from time to time. When you use one drug too<br />

long, the effects will gradually be reduced.<br />

• When using drugs, follow the directions and complete the treatment<br />

as directed. If you use it for say 3-4 days and not the 7 days as<br />

directed, you may be doing more harm than good.<br />

• If you have a history of Canker problems, treat before breeding<br />

season and check the young in the nest on a regular basis. You<br />

may use some canker meds while the birds are laying on eggs.<br />

Pigeons may have Canker with no sign of the yellow cheesy stuff<br />

most fanciers look for. Ronidazole is a very safe Canker med.<br />

• On occasion, a young in the nest will develop spread leg. One leg<br />

will stick out from the body. This is almost always caused by a<br />

smooth surface in the nest bowl, and there is only one young in the<br />

nest. If older than 10 days this condition is irreversible.<br />

• You should not use most antibiotics when you have very young<br />

birds in the nest. The use of Ampicillin, doxycycline, baytril (enro<br />

floxin), streptomycin and gentamycin should not be considered.<br />

• Ivermectin, Baytril (enrofloxin), gentamycin and metronidazole,<br />

used during the breeding season, may cause infertility.<br />

• Without Vitamin D3, calcium cannot be absorbed from the gut.<br />

In addition to Grit, give products that include Vitamin D3 It is very<br />

important to pigeons that they receive a continuous intake of<br />

calcium, during the breeding season. Give the hens calcium after<br />

the breeding season.<br />

• Garlic is very useful for pigeons. The Alkaloids of Garlic affect<br />

bacteria directly, just like antibiotics, but without major side effects.<br />

• Paratyphoid and Salmonella are the same thing.<br />

• When you are advised to quarantine your birds, if possible, the<br />

quarantined pigeons should not even share air space with the other<br />

birds. Quarantine should be a minimum of 30 days.<br />

• Pigeons molt once a year, and if you used a drug, during the molt,<br />

you should not have. The effects will last for the next 12 months.<br />

• If you have “HARD” water, it may ruin some drugs. Tetracycline or<br />

gentamycin in particular. Boil the “Hard” water beforehand.<br />

• Aloe vera strengthens the immune system and hastens recovery<br />

after illness.<br />

• When using tetracyclines, combine with apple cider vinegar.<br />

• You may want to consider feeding your flying youngsters a high<br />

protein diet, not over 18%. This higher protein diet encourages<br />

growth and development. When you’re flying breeds begin to fly<br />

longer periods, say up to an hour, modify the diet to a lower protein.<br />

• Want to put weight on your birds, try adding raw whole peanuts to<br />

the birds diet. Peanuts contain almost 50% fat and 30% protein.<br />

Add 6-7 peanuts per bird on average would be enough, for Racing<br />

Homers, building up reserves and stamina, peanuts may be the<br />

way to go.<br />

• Tobacco Stems are good nesting material and help reduce<br />

parasites. Try soaking them and shaping them to fit inside the<br />

bowl.<br />

• Enteritis means an inflammation of the digestive tract.<br />

• Keep your carrying baskets clean. Parasites will live in the basket as<br />

it collects droppings. Clean it and disinfect it regularly.<br />

HOW CAN THIS BE?<br />

Years ago I was entering my loft and one of my white pigeons flew the<br />

coop. I thought I would never see the bird again, as it had never been<br />

flown. Three days later as I was exiting the front door of my residence, as<br />

I opened the door there was the white pigeon hanging on my screen door.<br />

I was shocked. I opened the door, caught the bird, and placed it in my loft.<br />

To this day, I cannot figure out how this bird found its way to my front door<br />

and I will chalk it up as a miracle.<br />

loft droppings close to the loft. Prevent any strange pigeons from<br />

entering the loft. If you use the deep litter system, do not allow dampness.<br />

Spray all the birds, if possible, every eight weeks. Be sure to<br />

spray under the wings and all the tail feathers.<br />

Red Mites<br />

Symptoms:<br />

Pigeons become restless especially in the evening. Mites move to the<br />

pigeons in the evening. Mites feed on pigeons sucking blood in the<br />

evening. They breed in the loft but not on the pigeons. They live in<br />

cracks and crevices.<br />

Diagnosis:<br />

Place cotton balls in the loft after dark. Examine the cotton balls in<br />

the daylight to see small pin head sized red mites.<br />

Prevention/Treatment:<br />

Regular effective disinfection of the loft with a pyrethrum product<br />

such as Bug Spray #572. Spray every 2 months. Apply Ekto/Endo<br />

#2516 to the back of the neck as directed. Perch Oil #7032 has been<br />

proven to be very effective against Red Mites.<br />

Scaly-Leg Mite<br />

A burrowing skin mite. Sometimes will burrow under the skin of the<br />

feet and lay their eggs in tunnels that they create when they entered.<br />

They may be seen on any part of the body and cause irritation. Another<br />

common spot to find them is under the beak in the crop area.<br />

They leave bald spots on the chest and top of the head.<br />

Treatment and Prevention:<br />

Treatment and prevention is accomplished using Ivermectin or Moxidectin<br />

#585. The use of Ekto/Endo has proven very effective, #2516<br />

and rotate with #2514. Many times it only affects one or two birds in<br />

the loft.<br />

INTERNAL PARASITES<br />

Roundworms<br />

Symptoms:<br />

Lethargic, fluffed up<br />

Loss of weight<br />

Slimy wet droppings<br />

Death of youngsters as a result of blockage of the intestines.<br />

Transmission:<br />

Adult worms lay eggs in the intestine.<br />

Worms pass thru the droppings.<br />

Eggs have to be in a moist warm environment for a few days for the<br />

larval stage to develop.<br />

Infected eggs are picked up and eaten.<br />

Larvae are released in the intestine of pigeons.<br />

Larvae grow to adults that start laying eggs within 14 days<br />

Larvae migrate to the liver and lungs.<br />

Diagnosis:<br />

Microscopic examination will identify the worm eggs. Necropsy will<br />

revel large pink/white worms in the intestines of pigeons.<br />

Prevention:<br />

Keep loft dry and clean.<br />

Keep carrying baskets clean.<br />

Lethargic and do not want to fly long. Wet droppings, sometimes<br />

with a spot of blood. Dramatic weight loss. Death in youngsters due<br />

to anemia.<br />

Transmission:<br />

Adult worms lay large number of eggs in the pigeons intestine. Worm<br />

eggs are passed thru the droppings. Larval stage develops in the<br />

egg. Worms eggs develop in a moist worm environment. Infected<br />

eggs are eaten by the pigeons. Larvae grow to adults in 14 days<br />

Diagnosis:<br />

Microscope will find them in the droppings. Necropsy will find them in<br />

the intestine.<br />

Prevention:<br />

Keep lofts clean and dry. Make sure all your carrying baskets are<br />

cleaned effectively and all droppings removed. Prevent stray birds<br />

from entering the loft. Segregate all new birds for 30-60 days before<br />

Recommended Treatment:<br />

Alternate #2515 Avioworm Powder with#2514 Ekto/Endo Tablets every<br />

8 weeks during flying season and show season. In cases of very heavy<br />

worm infestation treat first with Avioworm #2515 and then follow with<br />

Ekto/Endo Tablets #2514 and then repeat the treatment 14 days later<br />

with Ekto/Endo Tablets.<br />

Tapeworms<br />

Symptoms:<br />

Common reason for poor performance. Emaciation (Loss of lots of<br />

weight). Tapeworm segments may be seen hanging out of their rear.<br />

Transmission:<br />

Segments of tapeworm filled with eggs are excreted in the droppings<br />

Eggs are ingested by the intermediate host. The eggs develop in the<br />

host such as ants, snails, beetles and mites. The host is ingested<br />

when the pigeon eats it.<br />

Diagnosis:<br />

Visual examination of the stool will reveal small pin head sized segments.<br />

Prevention:<br />

Strict control of insects in and around the loft. Clean feed to prevent<br />

food lice that may carry the Tapeworms.<br />

Treatment:<br />

Praziquantel which is found in Avioworm Powder #2515, Ekto/Endo<br />

Tablets, Wormout Tablets #38 and Wormout Gel #74.<br />

Lungworms<br />

Symptoms:<br />

Pigeons tend to yawn and keep their beak open for a few seconds<br />

after yawning. Clicking type coughing in the evening. Extremely poor<br />

flying performance. Necropsy will reveal worms in the throat.<br />

Treatment:<br />

Clean loft and loft area. Insect control in and around loft.<br />

Treatments:<br />

Ivomectin #581 is the only effective treatment.<br />

Paratyphoid<br />

Paratyphoid is quite common in pigeons, and prevention attempts are<br />

so important. If you do take preventive steps, you will never know if<br />

you would have got the disease had you done nothing, but is it worth<br />

the risk? Initial symptoms will always be mild to severe enteritis with<br />

green and tinged sloppy wet droppings. In some cases the pigeons<br />

immune system may be strong enough or the bacterial strain may be<br />

weak enough to ensure that the bacteria does not gain entry into the<br />

body. In most cases the bacteria (Paratyphoid) will soon gain entry into<br />

the body and cause infections of the liver. (Hepatitis). The droppings<br />

will become a dark green color signifying sever liver damage. Once<br />

this happens the pigeon becomes severely depressed (fluffed-lethargic)<br />

and will stop eating. The affected pigeons will soon lose a lot of weight<br />

and may succumb from the hepatitis. In most cases; symptoms may<br />

be difficult to distinguish from PMV-1, a virus. Once the infection has<br />

established itself in the ovaries the hen will become a lifelong carrier and<br />

will pass the disease on to her babies via the egg. If the joints become<br />

infected pigeons will develop lameness in the leg of wing and it will<br />

establish itself in the joints. The bacteria will hide in the joint fluid or in<br />

the membrane of the joint. The fact that the normal antibiotics do not<br />

penetrate well into the joint or the brain makes it difficult to eradicate<br />

the bacteria.<br />

Treatment:<br />

It is important to realize that there is a marked difference in treating<br />

the non–systemic form of Paratyphoid compared to the systemic form<br />

(regular) When the bacteria has not yet entered the blood stream and<br />

is only in the intestine, a short course of the treatment with Furaltadone.<br />

Other antibiotics such as Amoxicillin may also be used.<br />

Once the bacteria has however entered the blood stream and a systemic<br />

status develops, a very specific treatment must be followed. At<br />

this stage it is unclear whether and treatment regime has the potential<br />

to clear the true carrier state that exist in some pigeons. It is especially<br />

the joint and the ovarian form that is extremely difficult if not impossible<br />

to clear.<br />

Entromune and Avio-gel combined with an antibiotic, but NOT Furazolidone<br />

or Furaltadone, may be tried. Many times combining two antibiotics<br />

will do the job. Before combining any antibiotics, you should consult<br />

an expert to be sure the combination of antibiotics and the correct dosage.<br />

Typhoid-Cure is an extremely effective combination of antibiotics.<br />

Another effective combination of antibiotics is YBD-cure.<br />

Prevention Program:<br />

Start 10 weeks before the flying, showing or breeding season.<br />

1. Treat all the pigeons for 10 days with Typhoid Cure in the drinking<br />

water. Combine the Typhoid- cure with Avio-gel and Entromune<br />

over the food for the full ten days.<br />

2. Vaccinate all the pigeons using KM-1 on the last day of the<br />

treatment.<br />

3. Continue your normal pre-flying or pre-breeding program.<br />

4. Vaccinate all the pigeons again 2 weeks after the first vaccinations,<br />

once again with KM-1 vaccine. The second vaccination, called the<br />

booster is most important.<br />

5. Leave a one week gap before vaccinating with any other vaccine<br />

such as for PMV-1 or Pigeon Pox.<br />

6. You may use any treatment, including antibiotics when using KM-1<br />

vaccine.<br />

Never a work day goes by at Foy’s without a question in regards to<br />

pigeons. The most common questions are about pigeon, chicken<br />

or cage bird health. I am not a Vet, nor is anyone on our staff. If<br />

you have a serious health issue with your birds, please call a Vet.<br />

I have had pigeons the better part of sixty years, and have read<br />

book after book about bird health. The staff at Foy’s has been<br />

trained by me and also thru repetition. A great majority of the calls<br />

are questions we have been asked many times and the staff most<br />

likely will be able to help you. In a male dominated hobby, many<br />

callers ask for me. I think it is because the caller feels as though<br />

a lady could not possibly know much about pigeons, but believe<br />

me they do. Please explain to one of our staff, what the issues<br />

are, if they do not know or are not sure, they will call me at home.<br />

If you need to call me, please do, but try the store first. I am now<br />

retired from the day to day operation at Foy’s, but like most small<br />

business owners, I am still involved. I still keep 200-300 birds.<br />

Having so many birds, I am always trying to find ways to save time<br />

but still accomplish what I want do. Keeping the birds bug free is<br />

important, and there is nothing easier and better than Permectrin<br />

CHANGE<br />

11<br />

The Gagne family purchased the Foy’s Pigeon Supply Company,<br />

in the year 2000, from Clair and Janice Hetland. The<br />

Hetland’s were from Golden Valley, Minnesota, and operated<br />

the company from there for over 28 years. The Hetalnd’s had<br />

purchased Foy’s from Charles Foy from Clinton Iowa, who was<br />

the son of Frank Foy, who started the business. I have always<br />

thought that Foy’s was founded in 1887, but reading thru an<br />

American Pigeon Journal, from 1922, I came across an article<br />

written by Frank Foy. In this article I read that Foy’s Pigeon Farm<br />

was founded in 1883, in Des Moines, Iowa. So in the year <strong>2018</strong>,<br />

Foy’s is now 135 years old and still going strong.<br />

The Gagne family has taken the company back to its roots, by<br />

adding poultry supplies to the products offered. Frank Foy started<br />

the company by selling Pekin duck eggs and eventually adding<br />

live ducks and chickens. Charles Foy took over the business<br />

in the late 1930’s or early 1940,s, and the company became a<br />

pigeon only company, with most of the emphasis on pigeons as<br />

a meat animal, featuring Kings and Carneau pigeons. Charlie<br />

Foy led the business to greatness, building a large and loyal<br />

following. I actually met Charlie Foy at my home in Maine, never<br />

imagining that the Gagne family would sometime own Foy’s.<br />

How that all happened is another story. (By the way, when<br />

Charlie Foy visited my home in Maine, he asked if I was interested<br />

in buying the <strong>Foy's</strong> business. This was in the mid 60's.)<br />

Clair and Janice Hetland grew the Foy’s company to be many<br />

times larger than the company had ever been. Innovative ideas<br />

and Clair’s background as a pharmacist, allowed the company<br />

to expand the medication line and Clair formulated the biggest<br />

selling vitamin powder in America. He also created a concentrated<br />

grit supplement. The Pigeon Builder vitamin that Clair formulated,<br />

sells well over a ton every year, and the Grit Concentrate<br />

is still an excellent seller, but the availability of commercial<br />

grit, has slowed sales down.<br />

The Gagne Family, in its own right has introduced many innovations.<br />

A website, full color catalog, toll free phone, same<br />

day shipping, Facebook, Twitter, advertising space for pigeon<br />

breeders, cage bird products, droppings analysis and sale of<br />

pigeons and much, much more. We now import containers<br />

from Belgium, Taiwan, Poland and Spain. We order from Belgium,<br />

Taiwan, Poland, Spain, South Africa, Norway, Germany,<br />

Australia and England. We have our own associated wood and<br />

metal shops, and are able to custom build anything in wood or<br />

metal. We also offer website design, advertising literature and<br />

personalized business cards.<br />

Note: I asked Clair Hetland, the gentleman, who along with his<br />

wife Jan, purchased Foy’s Pigeon <strong>Supplies</strong> from Charles Foy,<br />

for his comments on the history of <strong>Foy's</strong>. The following are Clair<br />

Hetland’s comments.<br />

I began selling pigeon medications from the pharmacy I managed<br />

in 1961. I had a small line of products that I had used and<br />

knew they were both safe and effective. I used the American<br />

Pigeon Journal to reach the customers. The pharmacy gave<br />

me half the profit from the sales. The pharmacy owner was not<br />

happy because I spent time selling pigeon products. So I said fine.<br />

I took the business home. I still worked at the pharmacy but I operated<br />

the pigeon business at night.<br />

Many of the products I sold were “manufactured” or repackaged by<br />

Foy’s. Whenever I ordered more products from Charles Foy, I would<br />

ask him if he was ready to sell his business and would he give me a<br />

shot at it. One day the phone rang and it was Charles. Charlie Foy<br />

said if you want the business come on down and see if you like it,<br />

spend a week. See what it is like.<br />

I visited with Charlie and saw what a dynamo he was. He and his<br />

wife, Lucille, showed me the ropes. Charlie filled me in on what the<br />

business was all about. The business was started by Charlie’s father<br />

Frank Foy. Frank Foy worked in a factory that made incubators and<br />

other poultry products. Frank also raised poultry and water fowl.<br />

He had a small pamphlet that he would toss in each outgoing order.<br />

That was the beginning of Foy’s Pigeon <strong>Supplies</strong>.<br />

Charlie Foy, Frank’s son, was many things. Highly respected in his<br />

state and he was a small plane, open-cock pit pilot. Charlie disposed<br />

of so many chickens and their eggs that he was the only<br />

person to test for New Castle disease. It did not make him ill, but it<br />

showed up in his blood tests. The pigeons were a continuance of<br />

the poultry breeding. It was harder to raise chickens.<br />

Selling Pigeons requires a person who could tell the sex of birds.<br />

Foy’s had such a man and could almost guarantee pairs. When this<br />

man died, Charlie gave up on the live bird sales. The end of railway<br />

express also convinced Charlie to stop selling live birds and that is<br />

when it became 100% pigeon supplies.<br />

Our business in Golden Valley, Minnesota grew by leaps and bounds.<br />

My family was very involved but both daughters had careers and<br />

Janice was ready to retire. Then I had a heart attack, so we were<br />

lucky to find Jerry Gagne to buy us out. It was luck for Jerry too.<br />

~ Clair Hetland<br />

The following are Jerry Gagne’s Comments.<br />

August 2013<br />

I have had pigeons and sold pigeon supplies most of my life. When<br />

I was 21 years old, my brother Bob and I became partners in the pigeon<br />

business. We had a friend, Ray LeBlanc , who owned a small<br />

pigeon supply business and we asked if it was for sale. Ray was a<br />

real gentleman and made it very easy for us to buy his business even<br />

though we had very limited money. We actually bought it by making<br />

payments to Ray. I just never imagined that LeBlanc’s Pigeon Farm<br />

was the beginning of this long road to Foy’s Pigeon Supply.<br />

My brother, who was a carpenter, handled the building of all wood<br />

products as well as whatever needed to be done. We changed the<br />

name to Gagne Bros. Pigeon Supply and operated in Maine for several<br />

years. (Charles Foy visited us on one occasion.) I lost my regular<br />

job in 1969 and made the decision to move to Pennsylvania where<br />

I had a job offer. I bought out my brother and moved everything to<br />

Clinton, Pa. (Quite amazing isn't it that I moved to Clinton, PA and<br />

operated a pigeon business which eventually bought <strong>Foy's</strong> a business<br />

that once was located in Clinton, Iowa.) I operated a business<br />

from Clinton, Pa. I ran the Gagne Bros. Pigeon Supply until 1974, but<br />

with a growing family, it was just not enough income and I could not<br />

operate it part time. I sold the business and moved on with my life.<br />

I became a home improvement contractor and in this line of work, I<br />

would climb on to roofs to inspect them. One day I was on a roof and<br />

happened to look down into a neighbors yard and I saw two pigeon<br />

lofts. The next day I spoke to the owner, Joe Piltz, and I came home<br />

with a box of pigeons. No loft, no cages or anything else, but I had<br />

pigeons! Being who I am, the pigeons led to Jerry’s Pigeon Supply.<br />

As the small business grew, I had an occasion to speak to Clair Hetland.<br />

Clair was a real gentleman and helped me find some pigeon<br />

products I was looking for. I started to buy products from Clair and<br />

over the course of time, I asked the same question that Clair Hetland<br />

asked Charles Foy. I told Clair that if he ever wanted to sell Foy’s<br />

Pigeon Supply, please give me a shot at it. It wasn’t easy, but I think<br />

it was meant to be and with Clair’s help, I ended up buying Foy’s.<br />

Two of my sons, Kim, and I flew to Minnesota. We spent 3 days and<br />

loaded two tractor trailers full and on a Friday left for Pennsylvania.<br />

The Minnesota phone number was forwarded to Pennsylvania and<br />

on Monday we were taking orders. The year was 2000.<br />

The Gagne Family is just the third family owner over the past 135<br />

years. The company has survived depressions, wars, recessions<br />

and so much more. <strong>Pet</strong> fanciers are very loyal, and if you give service,<br />

they will stick with you.<br />

The president of Foy’s is Kim Hare, who becomes a second generation<br />

leadership of the company. Sherry is an 11 year employee and<br />

there is hardly a job that she has not handled. Sam is our Granddaughter<br />

and enters her 2nd year, her job includes answering the<br />

phone, packing orders and anything that requires muscle. Veronica<br />

will be in here seventh year and creates all our advertisements, created<br />

and monitors our web site, creates a market for other services<br />

we offer such as web site design, business cards , promotional items<br />

and all the catalog prep work. Gina, my daughter, served honorably<br />

in the Navy for 20 years and then joined <strong>Foy's</strong> and does everything<br />

but her responsibility is inventory control.<br />

Vickie, my wife, is in charge of all the seamless band sales, packs,<br />

ships, and answers the phone. Together we have built the business<br />

and enjoyed the inclusion of family members.<br />

I am now semi-retired from the company and have decided to try to<br />

give back to the pigeon community. I still create the catalog and handle<br />

our pigeons, but for the most part, at the age of 77, have stepped<br />

back from the day-to-day operations. I served as the President of<br />

the National Pigeon Association and spent much of my time trying<br />

to make the NPA bigger and more service oriented. If you are not a<br />

member of the National Pigeon Association, please contact me, I will<br />

be glad to answer any questions and hopefully send you a membership<br />

application. I currently serve as chairman of the National Pigeon<br />

Association - Legacy Fund Trust.<br />

In 2017, <strong>Foy's</strong> moved to a new location to better server our customers.<br />

We are now located across the river from New Brighton, PA.<br />

RACE QUALITY RACING PIGEONS<br />

Over the last 6-7 years, Foy’s has sold 1000’s of quality racing<br />

pigeons. We know we are doing something right when we have<br />

repeat customers time and time again. We have our own lofts at<br />

the store and at my home. I no longer race my birds, but still enjoy<br />

the whole process of keeping pigeons. Yes, I even enjoy cleaning<br />

the loft. Birds we have sold have won at all distances, including a<br />

winner at 500 miles. We do not raise every racing homer we sell,<br />

but we do guarantee, that if you are looking for quality, we have<br />

it. When needed, we purchase birds from local lofts, but not just<br />

any loft. We acquire birds from three top lofts in the race combine,<br />

and these birds are made available to Foy’s, because the breeder<br />

would prefer they be shipped out of their area. They do not want<br />

to offer them locally because they do not want to compete against<br />

their own birds. If you want quality racing pigeons, we have<br />

them. We offer no particular strain or color, and the color of the<br />

racing pigeons is not important, we just want good racers.<br />

YOUNG RACING PIGEONS<br />

Raised by our birds, the young birds are all from our breeding<br />

teams, and have never been out of the loft. When we ship, they are<br />

old enough to eat and drink and are seamless banded. The young<br />

bird bands are registered by Foy’s and should you lose a bird, and it<br />

is found by someone, they can contact us and we will give them your<br />

contact information. We can not sell young birds by pairs, as they are<br />

not old enough to know the sex of the birds, when we ship them. All<br />

orders are shipped in the sequence that we receive the orders, so order<br />

early and be sure to get them before we sell out. You should keep<br />

the young birds in the loft, with access to an aviary, for two weeks,<br />

before releasing them.<br />

BREEDING PAIRS OF RACING PIGEONS<br />

We sell mature breeding racing pigeons year round and can ship<br />

year round. We do separate our hens and cocks when we are not<br />

breeding, so we can not guarantee mated pairs, but we do guarantee<br />

a hen and a cock. You can never allow these birds to fly free,<br />

as they will eventually try to return to where they were born or first<br />

released. We feed a mixed grain, commercial pigeon feed and you<br />

should try to do the same. If you do want a particular color, we will<br />

do our very best to honor your request, but it is not always possible.<br />

All pigeons are shipped through the post office by Express Mail<br />

directly to your home or address you supply.<br />

RARE COLOR RACING HOMERS<br />

The racing pigeon remains the single most popular breed of pigeons, and within the breed, many racing pigeons are enjoyed, not for<br />

their ability to compete in club races, but for the beautiful colors. At Foy’s we keep a loft just for rare color racing homers.<br />

The following colors are what I consider rare colors in my loft:<br />

Red Red Check Silver Grizzle Yellow Check Yellow Brown Splash<br />

* I also have colors I can’t describe, which are the result of breeding from the above colors. Please call for availability. *<br />

#10019 1 Pair for $100.00 #10020 2 Pair for $175.00 #10021 4 Pair for $300.00<br />

We do not keep the rare colors in stock for very long, so we are not able to breed from them. For this<br />

reason, we usually do not have young rare colors available.<br />

ROLLERS<br />

Rollers are the second most popular breed of pigeons, after Racing Homers. Our Rollers are top quality birds and will roll as promised. Rollers<br />

are acrobats of the pigeon hobby and it is a real blast to watch a kit of Rollers take off and get to gather as a group, At some signal, known<br />

only by the birds, they start tumbling to the ground, doing summersaults almost all the way to the down. At the end of their roll, they gather<br />

up again and fly back up to the height needed to roll down again. Rollers come in all different colors, but we do not necessarily have them for<br />

color, we have them for their ability to roll. We will try to send the colors you like, but can’t promise to send birds as lose to the colors you are<br />

looking for. Rollers are a small breed about half the size of Racing Homers, and a bit smaller than the wild birds you see on the streets or roof<br />

tops. Rollers are very active, bright eyed and just love to fly. They are easy to breed and great parents. Keep in mind that Rollers have little to<br />

no homing instinct, so you can purchase breeders and they will stay return to your loft. I would suggest you keep them in the loft for 3-4 weeks<br />

before releasing the new birds, and you need an outside landing area and a removable aviary. The aviary offers the birds the opportunity to<br />

enjoy being outside and also allows them to observe their surroundings before being released to fly. (bold) Prices do not include shipping cost<br />

nor the special books that must be used to ship the birds. Birds are sent by express mail, thru the post office.<br />

PRICE DOES NOT INCLUDE THE SHIPPING BOX OR THE AIR MAIL SHIPPING COST. See next page.<br />

DROPPING ANALYSIS<br />

We are quite pleased to offer a great new service to aid you in knowing<br />

more about the health of your flock of pigeons, poultry or cage birds.<br />

We have enlisted the help of an experienced veterinarian who will<br />

look at droppings that you have sent, and give you an idea as to what<br />

is wrong and what to do. You can not find all diseases in the droppings,<br />

but most common problems will show up. Droppings analysis will not<br />

find viruses, paratyphoid or other bacterial infections. It will find coccidiosis,<br />

worms, parasites, yeast infections and other problems.<br />

Here is what you have to do:<br />

Collect about a tablespoon of fresh droppings. This tablespoon can be<br />

a mix of your flock, or if you have problems in just one section of your<br />

loft, collect the Tablespoon from just that one or two sections. It should<br />

be a general sampling of a number of the birds. If you are concerned<br />

with just one bird, isolate the bird and collect just the dropping from that<br />

one bird, you will not get a tablespoon, but get as much as you can for<br />

overnight and the morning before mailing them. The surface, under the<br />

bird should not be anything that will absorb the urine, plastic or metal is<br />

best, under the bird. The droppings MUST BE AS FRESH AS POS-<br />

SIBLE when you send them. Do not collect them from newspaper or<br />

an absorbent surface, because the urine would be blotted up, and we<br />

need all of the droppings. If you are sending more than one sample,<br />

place each sample in a plastic zip lock bag. Mark each bag you send<br />

to us, with a number or an identification of some kind. This is important<br />

because we want to be able to refer to each bag. Put all the ziploc<br />

plastic bags in a padded envelope and mail them to <strong>Foy's</strong>. Padded<br />

envelopes are sold at a store such as Staples or the post office. If the<br />

samples are not in a ziploc bag and padded envelope, the droppings<br />

will be destroyed. We will call you with the results and a suggestion of<br />

treatment, and a written report will be mailed, e-mailed or faxed to you<br />

as well if desired.<br />

Include a check or money order, or you may call with your credit card<br />

number.<br />

Analysis one sample $40.00<br />

Additional samples sent together $25.00 (on same order)<br />

Checks or Money Order made out to <strong>Foy's</strong>, Mail, via Priority Mail<br />

Please call 724-843-6889 should you have any questions.<br />

EXTERNAL PARASITES<br />

Feather Lice. Small black lice can be seen on feathers, next to the<br />

center shaft. The lice cause no harm, but bother the pigeons. Lice are<br />

a sign that you need to keep a cleaner loft. Check your birds regularly<br />

and if you see the lice, treat by dipping or spraying. Secticide or bug<br />

spray is suggested but Permectrin II would also be a good choice.<br />

The Pigeon Fly is rather common, you will see it as it tries to hide in<br />

the feathers. Pigeons with the Pigeon Fly, will often stamp their feet<br />

and act restless. The Pigeon Fly travels from pigeon to pigeon. The fly<br />

may be a carrier of Malaria causing poor flying performance. Prevention<br />

includes cleaning nesting bowls and the loft regularly. If you have<br />

a compost pile, it should not be close to the loft. Keep strays out of<br />

the loft, and when introducing new birds, spray them while they are in<br />

quarantine. Do not let the droppings build up in the nest bowl, nest box<br />

or on the floor. In the Summer, spray all the pigeons in the loft every 8<br />

weeks. Secticide is my first choice, Permectrin II is also a good choice,<br />

all with bug spray.<br />

Red Mite symptoms include restlessness during the evenings, a heavy<br />

infestation will cause anemia in babies, and in severe cases cause<br />

death in the babies. Your pigeons will also stamp their feet. The adult<br />

mite hides in the cracks and crevices in the loft, during the daylight. The<br />

mite moves onto the pigeon at night and feeds on the pigeons exposed<br />

skin, sucking blood. They breed in the loft, off the pigeons. If you want<br />

to check to see if you have them, place a cotton ball in the loft after<br />

dark. Examine the cotton ball after first light to see the small pin head<br />

sized red mites. Spraying the loft with Permectrin II is recommended<br />

as a preventative. If possible, apply Ekto/Endo to the back of the neck<br />

of all the pigeons, every 8 weeks. Ivermectin, to the back of the neck,<br />

will also reduce the infestation. Another excellent option is perch oil.<br />

Nasal and Tracheal Mite. The Nasal mite causes severe irritation in<br />

the nose with sneezing , shaking the head and persistent scratching at<br />

the nasal openings. The Trachael (Throat) mite may cause coughing,<br />

wheezing and a clicking sound especially in the evening when pigeons<br />

are at rest. The mite travels from pigeon to pigeon. Keep stray pigeons<br />

out of the loft. Canaries are carriers, keep them away from the loft.<br />

Treat all the pigeons in the loft with Ekto/Endo tablets and repeat in 10<br />

days. A 5 day treatment combining Spiradox and Bromhexine is also<br />

suggested, the Spiradox treats secondary infections and Bromhexine<br />

liquefies the mucus.<br />

Secnidazole is currently by far the most effective<br />

treatment and prevention of Trichomoniasis.<br />

It has a long acting effect and has minimal<br />

side effects. Ronidazole is faster acting, but is passed<br />

thru more quickly. Avionidazole combines Secnidazole with Ronidazole<br />

ensuring that the pigeon fancier has the best possible product<br />

available to prevent Trichomoniasis (Canker). Add 4 teaspoons to a<br />

gallon for 2 days about 8 weeks before racing or show season and<br />

again in the middle of either season. If you have canker add 4 teaspoons<br />

to a gallon for 3 consecutive days. Change daily.<br />

Dimetryl + by Aviomed<br />

Dimetryl is a unique product developed<br />

specifically to treat resistant strains of<br />

Trichomoniasis (Canker). Dimetridazole is<br />

extremely effective when administered at higher<br />

doses. At these high doses it is very toxic.<br />

Dimetryl contains the unique Aviomed additive<br />

knows as Antitox. Antitox is a blend of natural<br />

substances that reduces the toxic effect of Dimetridazole,<br />

supports the liver and stimulates<br />

the immune system. With the additive of Antitox, the dosage can<br />

safely be increased and the treatment time is reduced to three days.<br />

Dosage is 1 teaspoon per 1 gallon of water for 3 days continuously. If<br />

the weather is hot and the birds are drinking more water, reduce the<br />

dosage to 1 teaspoon per 2 gallons. Use Dimetryl twice during the<br />

race season or when you are flying your birds. Dose early in the week<br />

and do not race or fly competitively within five days of using Dimetryl.<br />

Contains 40% Dimetridazole and Aviomed - Antitox 2%. In normal<br />

weather makes approximately 7 gallons.<br />

50 gallons. The tablets, called Aviotrich, have the added effect of<br />

stimulating the flying performance of birds such as Racing Homers,<br />

Rollers, Tipplers, Flights, Doneks, High Flyers, etc. For stimulating,<br />

give 1 tablet one day before shipping for a competition such as a race.<br />

Trizole<br />

Trizole treats both Canker and Coccidiosis<br />

in pigeons. The combination of Secnidazole<br />

and Ronidazole means a single dose will have rapid<br />

but long lasting activity against Canker. Canker is<br />

commonly spread via food and water by carrier birds<br />

and passed by the parents to the young. Young birds<br />

show classic symptoms such as growth in their throat<br />

or naval. Older birds show weight loss and weakness<br />

or poor flying performances. Coccidiosis is a common<br />

disease of pigeons. It is a parasite passed from one bird to another<br />

via dropping contamination of food or water. Coccidiosis is always<br />

worse during warm, wet conditions. Trizole tablets after feeding, at<br />

the rate of one tablet per pigeon, once only. Trizole will not cause<br />

infertility or reduced performance. Can be used during breeding<br />

season and when birds have young in the nest. 25mg Ronidazole,<br />

25 mg Secnidazole and 5mg Diclazuril.<br />

TriColi-STOP<br />

TriColi was developed in Europe specially<br />

for pigeons. Over the years, pigeons have<br />

started to develop a resistance to the many products<br />

used to treat or prevent Canker. Originally developed as an individual<br />

dose capsule, in 2016, due to the success and demand for, a<br />

flock treatment was developed. The TriColi Stop Powder treats 625<br />

pigeons and may be used at any time, including breeding season,<br />

racing season, show season, in other words, it can be used<br />

year round, as needed. TriColi Stop Powder is not water soluble, and<br />

is used on the feed. As stated, it may be used during the breeding<br />

season, but when you have 2-3 week old youngsters in the nest, the<br />

use of TriColi Stop should be stopped.<br />

• Suppresses 99.8% of Canker within 3 Hours!<br />

• Suppresses the E-Coli in pigeons within hours!<br />

• Improves the Condition of pigeons<br />

• Cleans and refreshes the liver of pigeons!<br />

• Contains pure NATURAL ORGANIC substances and vitamins!<br />

Results prove that after extensive tests carried out by leading scientists<br />

at the University of Ghent, Belgium, in the Faculty of Veterinary<br />

Medicine, Department of Pathology, Bacterial and Avian Diseases,<br />

scientists were amazed to discover that TriColi STOP kills Trichomonas/Canker<br />

in Pigeons within 3 hours.<br />

• Not an antibiotic or medication, no resistance/side effects can<br />

develop! The Powder is sprinkled on the feed, and it is suggested<br />

that you use a small amount of the oils available for pigeons or just a<br />

small amount of vegetable oil, on the feed, which helps the powder<br />

stick to the feed. What I do is use a large scoop that I know holds<br />

a bit of 2.2 lbs. (Kilo). Since I already know how much the scoop<br />

holds, I do not have to weigh the feed. You could us a Scoop like I<br />

do, #253, or any container such as a can or jar, weigh out and mark<br />

the container where it is a bit over 2 lbs. If you would like to make<br />

a smaller amount, use ¾ teaspoon per 1.1 pound (1/2 Kilo). The<br />

powder, like the capsules, is used for just one day. The Capsules<br />

are for individual treatment and used by holding the beak open and<br />

dropping the capsule down the throat. I hold the beak closed and<br />

massage the throat gently to be sure it is swallowed. Dip the capsule<br />

in water or oil if you like, which makes it easier to swallow.<br />

Cocci-Cide by Dr. Pigeon<br />

Made from 4 very common ingredients, which<br />

has proven very effective in treating and controlling<br />

Coccidiosis, which causes emaciation, loss of stamina;<br />

thrush. Thrush causes white ulcer lesions in the mouth<br />

and throat; Aspergillosis, which causes heavy breathing, loss of appetite,<br />

and increased thirst. Add 1 teaspoon per gallon for 3 days.<br />

#7037 Cocci-Cide 8 oz. $11.00<br />

Corid/Amprolium<br />

A very effective product for treatment<br />

of Coccidiosis. Prevention is always<br />

the best, as in any disease, and the<br />

best thing you could do is to be sure your loft floor<br />

is dry. Many fancy breeds spend a lot of time on<br />

the floor, breeds such as Fantails, Muffed Breeds,<br />

Runts, Kings, etc. These breeds are more susceptible<br />

to Coccidiosis because if the floor is damp this creates the ideal<br />

breeding ground for Coccidiosis. The liquid , which is 9.6% is used<br />

at the rate of 2 teaspoons to a gallon and used for a suggested 7<br />

days. The powder, which is 20%, is used at the rate of one teaspoon<br />

per gallon and also used for a suggested 7 days. Coccidiosis is not<br />

a disease it is a protozoa or similar to a very small bug, and usually<br />

has droppings of very light green which may include small amounts<br />

of blood. Coccidiosis is quite common in pigeons, and if you suspect<br />

your birds may have it, you may want to send in a sample of the<br />

droppings to Foy’s. We partner with a veterinarian who will look at the<br />

droppings thru a microscope and will know right away if Coccidiosis is<br />

present. He will also be able to tell you if worms are present. The way<br />

to send the droppings is listed elsewhere in Foy’s catalog. Coccidiosis<br />

will develop resistant to any drug, very quickly and it is a good idea to<br />

rotate Corid with another drug such as #2508 Cox/Trimethroprim. Do<br />

not combine with anything else and change the treated water daily.<br />

Levamisole/Vermisol<br />

A very efficient wormer for all worms<br />

except Tapeworms which are rare. It<br />

is suggested to remove feed 24 hours before using,<br />

and a few hours after to reduce vomiting which is a<br />

common side effect. The powder is 4 teaspoons per<br />

gallon for one day. Repeat in 10-12 days. The powder<br />

contains 7.5 grams of Levamisole.<br />

Cox/Trimethroprim Powder by Aviomed<br />

AvioCox Powder combines Sulphadimethoxine,<br />

the safest and most effective Sulphonamide,<br />

with the purest and most potent water soluble<br />

high dose Trimethoprim. Sulphadimethoxine is one<br />

of the newer, safer and more effective Sulphas that is<br />

ideal for the treatment and prevention of Coccidiosis.<br />

At the high dose inclusion of Trimethoprim found in this<br />

product, it has been proven to be very effective against Salmonella<br />

(Paratyphoid) and Ecoli. The combination of Trimethoprim and sulphas<br />

are well known to act synergistically to increase its spectrum<br />

against bacteria. AvioCox is thus highly suitable for the treatment of<br />

other bacteria especially those found in the intestinal tract. Avio-<br />

Cox is the ideal product to use when treating "Young Bird Disease".<br />

AvioCox should be used once every eight weeks during racing or<br />

competition flying season as a preventative treatment against Coccidiosis.<br />

Breeding pigeons and babies should be treated every eight<br />

weeks preventively until molting season starts. Contains Sulphadimethoxine<br />

12.5g Trimethoprim 20g and Dextrose Add 4 teaspoons<br />

per gallon for 5 days as a treatment.<br />

Coxiworm by Aviomed<br />

This product is a world breakthrough and is<br />

the first of its kind to be specifically developed<br />

for pigeons. So far there is no equivalent available for<br />

the pigeons worldwide. It combines three of the safest<br />

and most effective actives available, for the unique<br />

combined treatment of Coccidiosis and worms in<br />

pigeons. Pyrantel and Praziquantel are the two safest<br />

and some of the most effective against the three most common<br />

worms, (Roundworm, Hairworm and Tapeworm). Toltazuril likewise<br />

is the most effective and safe treatment against Coccidiosis.<br />

It also supplies a three week residual protection against re-infections<br />

with Coccidia. This product is completely safe and does not cause<br />

any burn of feathers so it is ideal for weaning youngsters. 1 Coxiworm<br />

tablet per pigeon. It is highly suggested to dose every 12 weeks if you<br />

have an ongoing issue with worms of Coccidiosis. Dose all babies<br />

after weaning. Rotate with Ekto/Endo+ tablets.<br />

Divet<br />

"MAGIC BULLET" because it is so effective. Great success<br />

has been reported in use against "ONE EYE COLDS",<br />

while others have found success in treating E. Coli, Coccidiosis,<br />

Paratyphoid (Salmonella) and other bacterial infections. The tablets<br />

are 1/4 to 1/2 for small to medium birds, and a full tablet for larger<br />

breeds, once in the AM and once in the PM for 5-7 days. Contains<br />

Floor Covering by Natural<br />

If you are like me, with limited time to spend in the loft, I would<br />

suggest you consider Natural Granulated Floor Covering.<br />

Natural Granulated Floor Covering is a natural product consisting of<br />

lava drawn from the subsoil and has an exceptional absorbing power:<br />

2.2 lbs. will absorb easily over a quart of water. When the droppings<br />

fall on the granules, they dry very quickly which stops the contamination<br />

cycle by parasites such as the oocysts of Coccidiosis and of the<br />

eggs of ascarids (intestinal worms). Another benefit of Natural Granulated<br />

Floor Covering is that the granules absorb the smell of the droppings.<br />

You might want to spread some around the nest bowl when<br />

young birds eject liquid droppings. The granulated floor may stay in<br />

the loft for up to a year provided it is raked weekly and also adds good<br />

insulation against the cold. Young birds love to lay down in this product.<br />

Their droppings dry quickly and their feet are always clean.<br />

A 44 lb. bag will cover about 16 square feet at 1/2" deep. I have over<br />

300 pigeons and use it in all my lofts, nest bows and breeding cages.<br />

for the treatment and prevention of Canker<br />

(Trichomoniasis). Aviozole is ultrapure, highly<br />

potent, prime grade Ronidazole, in an easy to dissolve powder. The<br />

10% Aviozole is used at the rate of 2 teaspoons to a gallon for 3 days<br />

as a preventative and 5 days as a treatment. The 25% formula is used<br />

at the rate of one teaspoon per gallon, 3 days as a prevention and 5<br />

days as a treatment. Change water daily. Safe to use during breeding<br />

season. Do not combine with #2521 Mycoban.<br />

Moxidectin Gel<br />

Moxidectin Gel was brought to our attention by a breeder who<br />

has been using it for over 10 years, and highly recommends it.<br />

It is a product that is different than most other products in the way it<br />

is prepared. This Moxidectin must be mixed in a blender for 30 seconds.<br />

Add to the drinking water for 1 day, and then repeated in 9<br />

days. Not only does it eliminate the most common roundworms,<br />

it also eliminates the Gapeworm, Air Sac mites, other mites and<br />

most internal parasites. Lice, which live off feathers, so you would<br />

think that Moxidectin would have no effect, but experience shows that<br />

most lice will also be disposed of. The breeder who suggested we<br />

add Moxidectin to our product line, sent along three pages of testimonials!<br />

The product is similar to a large syringe that has notches<br />

on it. Add four notches to a cup of warm water and put this in your<br />

blender. Blend for 30 seconds add this mixture to a gallon of drinking<br />

water. Give for two days and then repeat the process after 9 days. It<br />

is very Important, as with all roundworm treatments, to clean the loft<br />

after treatment. The Moxidectin does not kill round worms, as with all<br />

round worm treatment, it paralyzes them and they are expelled thru<br />

the droppings. If you do not clean the loft, especially the floor and<br />

perches, the pigeons could become reinfected by eating worms on<br />

the floor and perch. If your pigeons are exposed to the outsides and<br />

go to ground, they sometimes pick up roundworms. If worms are an<br />

ongoing problem, this exposure to the ground may be your problem<br />

and you should consider treating every month or at least twice a year,<br />

as the lifespan of the round worm is six months. Moxidetin remains<br />

in a birds system for up to 30 days.<br />

for pigeons and birds to ensure maximum absorption<br />

of the drug thru the skin. It is highly effective against<br />

most external as well as roundworms, hairworms,<br />

and lungworms. It is the most effective product<br />

for the treatment of lungworms and nasal mites.<br />

Part the feathers at the base of the neck of pigeons<br />

and apply 2 drops directly on the skin. Repeat<br />

treatment every 6 weeks for best results. It is recommended that the<br />

use of Avio-Ekto/Endo drops be alternated with Avio-Ekto/Endo + Tablets<br />

and Praziquantel) for the treatment of worms in pigeons.<br />

Ivermectin is the most effective treatment for<br />

the resistant Hairworm infestation and one of the few<br />

products that is effective against Lungworm and nasal<br />

mites. Ivermectin has the added benefit that it will<br />

also control blood sucking lice such as the red mite. Praziquantel is<br />

well known to be the safest and by far the most effective products for<br />

the treatment of tapeworm in pigeons. It is not recommended to dose<br />

Avio-Ekto/Endo + during the molt. Dose 1 tablet every 12 weeks.<br />

Each tablet contains Ivermectin 0.1 mg and Praziquantel 7.5 mg.<br />

Worm Powder by Aviomed<br />

An extremely safe and effective combination<br />

of Pyrantel pamoate and Praziquantel in<br />

special powdered form. The two active ingredients<br />

combine very well to ensure maximum effectiveness<br />

against the three most common pigeon worms,<br />

(Roundworm, Hairworms and Tapeworms) The product<br />

is completely safe and does not cause feather "burn" of the feathers,<br />

so it may be used during the breeding season. It is extremely<br />

mild and will not cause vomiting or loss of racing performance. Mix<br />

5gr (1 heaped teaspoon) with four teaspoons of water, leave stand<br />

for 30 minutes, and mix to make a paste. Add this to about a quarter<br />

pound of grain and feed to the birds. Make a second batch in the<br />

evening to be sure all birds are treated. Treat again in 12 weeks and<br />

alternate with Endo/Ekto tablets. Pyrantel pamoate 10%, Praziquantel<br />

2 % and special adherent base 88%.<br />

#2515 Avioworm Powder 100 gr. $17.00<br />

Wormout Gel<br />

Suitable for the worming of non food<br />

producing birds. Wormout Gel is ideal<br />

for crop needle administration however for<br />

ease of use it should be delivered in water. Kills Thread<br />

worms, Tape worms, Round worms, Caecal worms,<br />

and Hook worms in caged and aviary birds and pigeons.<br />

Using a small container (preferably with a lid that can be<br />

screwed on) measure 9 ml/cc of water and add to your<br />

container. Prime the wormout gel pump and add 1 ml/<br />

cc of the gel to 9 ml/cc of water. Screw your lid on and shake it for<br />

5-10 seconds to break up the gel. The dose of the diluted wormout<br />

gel mixture is 0.5 (1/2) ml/cc per 100 grams body weight via crop<br />

needle. Remember that the crop needle will have an air space in it<br />

which may effect the dose that is actually delivered. For instance, a<br />

12 gauge crop needle has an empty space about 0.45 ml/cc. You<br />

need to allow for the air space in whatever needle you are using. You<br />

need to know the weight of your birds, any good "bird book" will give<br />

the average weight of various species. The active constituents are<br />

Praziquantel 20 g/L and Oxfendazole 20 g/L for the treatment<br />

of threadworms (capillaria). The 100 ml/cc and the 250 ml/cc sizes<br />

deliver 1 ml/cc for each pump. All aviary birds add 2 ml/cc to 160<br />

ml/cc (2 pumps to 1 1/3 cup) of drinking water for 2 days. Aviaries<br />

should be treated at least 4 times a year. 160 ml/cc is 1/6 of a gallon.<br />

Remember to Mix 1t in a container with water and shake up before<br />

adding the drinking water. It is what I use.<br />

Pigeon Nutri-Drops<br />

Adeno virus, PMV and Circovirus are different strains of the<br />

same virus. Circovirus is an infectious transmittable disease<br />

that spreads form one bird to another. It is assumed to be spread<br />

though physical contact as well as on the dust in the loft, therefore,<br />

making it airborne. Once in the loft every pigeon will be exposed to the<br />

virus and the majority will become infected. Birds that do become sick<br />

will almost invariably die. The ones that do not become sick eventually<br />

clear the virus from their system. We do not know how long this takes<br />

but if is thought the majority will clear in 4-6 months. However, there is<br />

the possibility that some birds will fail to clear the virus and remain as<br />

persistent carriers. WHILE THE VIRUS IS ACTIVE IT INTERFERES<br />

WITH THE FUNCTIONING OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM. KILLING<br />

OF BIRDS WILL NOT ELIMINATE THE VIRUS BECAUSE THE<br />

MAJORITY OF INFECTED BIRDS SHOW NO SYMPTOMS. Viruses<br />

attack in two waves. 90% of birds die in the second wave because<br />

an impaired immune system has increased their vulnerability to<br />

secondary disease. It is essential that birds develop a good immunity<br />

to the second wave to avoid death. Remember that all birds need a<br />

strong immune system to fight off infections and disease. Pigeons<br />

Nutri-Drops contain high energy vitamins, amino acids and minerals<br />

to boost the immune system. Backed by 20 years of research,<br />

field trials and two U.S. patents and Pigeon Nutri-Drops owns the<br />

first patent ever for “speed of nutrient availability. You can MAXI-<br />

Lasota PMV Strain Vaccine<br />

For years many pigeon fanciers have used the Lasota vaccine,<br />

rather than the PMV-1 Vaccine, and now we all have to use<br />

Lasota. The Lasota is not an injectable. I recently spoke to a very<br />

well know veterinarian about using the Lasota. He uses it and is quite<br />

satisfied with its ability to prevent PMV-1. The veterinarian explained in<br />

detail how he uses it, and Foy’s is quite pleased to pass on this information.<br />

Once you open the bottle, you must use it all or dispose<br />

of what you do not use. THE LASOTA MUST BE KEPT COLD,<br />

NOT FROZEN. Keep it in the refrigerator until you are ready to use<br />

it. The first way to use it is in the drinking water, but this is not recommended<br />

because it may not do the job, as it is assuming the pigeon<br />

drinks enough of the water, and this is not always the case. If you have<br />

a very large flock, you may have to go this route, but if you have some<br />

valuable or some very special pigeons, it is suggest you use the second<br />

method on at least those. When using the vaccine in the drinking water,<br />

you should first do the following: Do not feed them the night before,<br />

or if you use a cafeteria feeder, remove it. The next morning,<br />

place the feed before them and they will eat rapidly. 3-4 hours<br />

later put a gallon of distilled water, with the vaccine added, in<br />

front of them. You want them to be very thirsty so they will drink.<br />

The vaccine loses its potency after just 3-4 hours, which is why<br />

you want them to drink right away. The second method requires<br />

you to handle each bird. Open the Lasota bottle and fill with distilled<br />

water. Shake the bottle to dissolve the vaccine. Add this to a 2 ounce<br />

dropper bottle and fill the remainder of the bottle with water. Using the<br />

eye dropper (included), place one drop directly into the eye and then<br />

one directly into nose hole. When giving the drops in the nostril, hold a<br />

finger over the opposite nostril to close it and repeat when you do the<br />

other nostril. By doing this, the drop will be sucked right into the nostril.<br />

It is recommended that you start with the Lasota two months before the<br />

race or show season. Whether you put it in the drinking water, or use<br />

a dropper, the treatment is for one day per month and repeated all thru<br />

race or show season. The idea is to treat during the period pigeons are<br />

mixed with other people’s pigeons. The Vet suggest 1 bottle to a gallon<br />

of drinking water but no more than one bottle to 2 gallons.<br />

Adeno-Zap<br />

A natural blend designed to quicken the recovery of Adeno,<br />

a virus, as no antibiotic will treat the disease. Adeno-Zap<br />

may greatly shorten the side effects. You have heard of Adeno Virus<br />

or experienced its devastating effects. Symptoms may include loose<br />

watery, yellow diarrhea, vomiting up feed and sudden death (the most<br />

common symptom). The spread of the virus may start in one age<br />

group and then spread to birds of all ages. Some birds in the same<br />

loft may show no symptoms at all and are not sick. Don’t wait until<br />

you need it, order Adeno-Zap now, and be ready. Please keep in mind<br />

that Adeno Zap is not an antibiotic, it is a natural product to quicken<br />

the recovery from the Adeno-Virus and to eliminate the side effects,<br />

such as poor food digestion, vomiting feed and yellow loose stinky<br />

droppings. When you have a bird(s) that you suspect has the Adeno-<br />

Virus, you must segregate the birds, preferably in another building<br />

or cage if possible. Add one teaspoon to a gallon of water, after they<br />

have been fed. Treat the sick birds until symptoms are gone. You<br />

should also treat the entire flock for three consecutive days and then<br />

repeat giving it to the whole flock in one week for three consecutive<br />

days. If symptoms persist, repeat the following week. Use distilled<br />

water, especially for the sick birds. A blend of natural herbs. KEEP<br />

REFRIGERATED AND MAKE A FRESH BATCH EVERY DAY.<br />

KM-1 Paratyphoid Vaccine<br />

Made available in 2013, after years of development<br />

and testing. Dr. John Kazmierczak and Dr<br />

Paul Miller, both lifelong racing pigeon fanciers, developed<br />

this vaccine. Vaccinated birds were challenged in tests<br />

and DID NOT get Paratyphoid, unvaccinated birds developed<br />

Paratyphoid after challenged. Earlier vaccines that<br />

were available had a tendency to make birds sick and occasionally<br />

cause death. This vaccine has shown minimal side effects and may<br />

be given to birds as young as six weeks. KM-1 contains strains from<br />

racing pigeons, show pigeons and meat pigeons, these are current<br />

strains that previous vaccines did not protect against. Each bottle will<br />

treat 100 birds at the rate of 1/4 cc. Initially the birds are vaccinated<br />

twice, 3 weeks apart and then once every six months. Paratyphoid<br />

is almost an epidemic in North America, and the only way to prevent<br />

Paratyphoid is with a long term approach of vaccination. Symptoms<br />

of Paratyphoid may include twisted neck. lack of coordination, limp,<br />

dropped wing, eggs not hatching, young dying in the shell or at weaning<br />

age, sudden death and in some cases none of these symptoms<br />

but still have the disease. KM-1 is a killed bacterium. Shipped with<br />

Furazolidon Plus<br />

Paratyphoid (Salmonella)<br />

has one of the highest<br />

mortality rates of any infectious<br />

bacterial disease of pigeons. Given<br />

the right conditions, the bacterium<br />

can remain infective in the<br />

environment for 1 year or more.<br />

As per Chevita, the maker of Furazolidone<br />

Plus, Salmonella is<br />

spread by: inhalation of dust containing the pathogen, contaminated<br />

feed (insects, mice, rats), dirty feeders and drinkers, mating, transmission<br />

from the hen to the egg, and feeding babies with infected crop<br />

milk. Chronic Carriers: Pigeons that appear healthy after surviving<br />

salmonella infection, but shed the pathogen at irregular intervals and<br />

thus pose a risk to the current flock and their young. Acute form<br />

(mainly effects adult pigeons) loose, greenish droppings, retardation<br />

of growth, loss of weight and in rare cases, death. Chronic form<br />

(mainly effects adult pigeons) inflammation causes a thickening of the<br />

leg or wing joint. This inflammation causes one wing to hang down<br />

or a bird to limp. The birds may have a problem with balance and<br />

a twisting of the neck. These symptoms do not always mean you<br />

have Paratyphoid (Salmonella) as other diseases may have the same<br />

symptoms. The Furazolidon Plus Powder is packed 12 envelopes to<br />

a box and dosage is 1 envelope to a 1/2 gallon of drinking water. So<br />

a box will make six gallons. Treat for 5 days, probiotics/vitamins for<br />

two days and repeat the Furazolidone Plus for another 3 to 5 days<br />

followed again by probiotics/vitamins for 2 days. The capsules come<br />

100 to a box and treatment is the same time frame as the powder.<br />

Cox/Trimethroprim Powder by<br />

Aviomed<br />

AvioCox Powder combines Sulphadimethoxine,<br />

the safest and most effective Sulphonamide,<br />

with the purest and most potent water soluble high dose<br />

Trimethoprim. Sulphadimethoxine is one of the newer,<br />

safer and more effective Sulphas that is ideal for the treatment<br />

Apple Cider Vinegar<br />

The addition of Apple Cider Vinegar to<br />

the water will lower the pH of the water,<br />

Muscle and Wing Powder by Aviomed<br />

Muscle and Wing Disease is a bacterial disease that under<br />

certain specific conditions starts over growing that<br />

initially only causes inflammation in the breast muscles.<br />

Symptoms are blue discoloration and swelling of the<br />

breast muscles. Pigeons become unwilling to train as a result of<br />

inflammation of the breathing muscles. Pigeons often sit with their<br />

beaks hanging open causing fanciers to confuse it with respiratory<br />

disease. High dose treatment with Amoxicillin trihydrate is the treatment<br />

of choice. Use for 7 days, may be used effectively mid racing<br />

season when pigeons are starting to lose form. Also treats Enteritis,<br />

Diarrhea, E.Coli and Paratyphoid. 40% Ultra Pure Amoxicillin trihydrate,<br />

YBD-Cure by Aviomed<br />

YBD is a frustrating disease that affects<br />

young pigeons between the age of 4<br />

weeks and one year. YBD is a multifactorial disease that<br />

is seen clinically when pigeons contract Circovirus and<br />

they are stressed and/or suffer from other underlying diseases such<br />

as Paramyxovirus, Trichomoniasis, Coccidiosis and Salmonella<br />

amongst others. Pigeons initially show symptoms of listlessness and<br />

loss of appetite, this is soon followed by excessive drinking of water<br />

and Vomiting as well as a bad smelling yellow to green diarrhea.<br />

Pigeons lose weight rapidly and about 10 – 20 % of untreated<br />

pigeons die. If pigeons are not treated effectively they may become<br />

severely stunted and never recover fully to become competitive during<br />

the racing season. An incredible new combination product that<br />

contains the two safest and most effective antibiotics against the secondary<br />

bacteria found in YBD (Amoxycillin and Colistin) combined with<br />

four well researched and proven natural immune stimulants has been<br />

hailed as a world breakthrough in the treatment of this dreaded disease.<br />

Dr Botha’s YBD-Cure is based on years of painstaking personal<br />

research combined with knowledge gained from the latest scientific<br />

articles printed in Veterinary journals. The unique and effective combination<br />

of Capsicum oleoresin (Capsicum), Turmeric oleoresin (Curcumin),<br />

Olea europaea ( Oleuropein) and Beta Glucan as anti-viral<br />

and immune stimulating elements with the high dose antibiotics<br />

make this product far superior to any other YBD products available.<br />

Add 1 heaped teaspoon to 50ml ( 1 3/4 oz.) of water. Mix thoroughly<br />

until no lumps remain, it will form a gel. Mix the gel with 1 kg (2.2 lbs)<br />

of feed leave to dry and feed the birds. Treat for 7 days consecutive,<br />

morning and evening The container is enough for 60 birds for 7 days.<br />

Typhoid-Cure Powder<br />

Aviomed has produced this extremely effective<br />

combination of antibiotics which<br />

acts more effectively in combination than<br />

they would singularly. Highly effective against<br />

Paratyphoid (Salmonella), E-coli, Muscle<br />

the treatment of "Young Bird Disease". Use for<br />

#4 Triple C Antibiotic Powder 100 gr. $29.00<br />

When birds are sick, many fanciers start medicating right away,<br />

based on what they think is the problem. So many symptoms<br />

are the same for sick birds that it is very difficult to guess correctly,<br />

and your chances to guess correctly are not good. I would<br />

suggest rather than guessing and wasting time and money, why<br />

not collect fresh samples of droppings and send them to Foy’s.<br />

We have a Vet who will look at the samples under a microscope<br />

and will be able to see most problems. I caution you, he will not<br />

be able to find a virus if that is the problem. Collect samples<br />

from one bird, if that is the only one sick, or if you have been<br />

experiencing multiple sick birds, scrape the floor and then collect<br />

fresh droppings from multiple locations which will give you<br />

a sampling of the flock. you only need a total of about a tablespoon,<br />

place them in a sealed plastic bag. If you want to send<br />

multiple samples, put each in a sealed bag, and mark each bag<br />

so that the analysis will refer to each identified bag. See page<br />

17 for shipping information. This droppings analyst applies to<br />

pigeons, cage birds and poultry.<br />

Antifungal<br />

A great additive to Improver designed to solve the<br />

problems of fungal. This product is meant to<br />

be used in combination with Improver, not by itself.<br />

Kills the high concentration of the fungal "Candida Albican".<br />

In combination with Improver it kills bad bacteria as Salmonella,<br />

E. Coli, and in addition of fungal also inhibits the spreading of Canker<br />

and other diseases through drinking water. It replaces antibiotic cure,<br />

therefore it stops the destruction of the natural micro flora in the birds<br />

that was generally caused by antibiotics. Simply add 1 spoon to a<br />

gallon 2 times a week (spoon included). The effects are visible in<br />

less than a week. One container will take care of 100 pigeons per<br />

day for a period of six months. Will make approximately 60 gallons.<br />

5-1 (All In One)<br />

All In One is a powder that gives us the best value and<br />

covers the largest range of health issues. I am not a<br />

strong believer in preventive medication, but I do believe this<br />

product will help keep your flock healthy. Coccidiosis is<br />

probably the most common pigeon health problem and All In<br />

One contains Amprolium and is listed as both a treatment and a preventative<br />

for Coccidiosis. Canker (Trichomoniasis) another common<br />

pigeon health issue is both preventable and treatable. All In One<br />

contains the safe drug, Ronidazole, an effective drug. The third most<br />

common health problem is worms, and All In One contains Levamisole<br />

which treats for most worms with the exception of Tape worms.<br />

Tylan is the drug of choice for respiratory and you’ll find it in All In<br />

One. The fifth ingredient includes probiotics to rebuild gut bacteria<br />

and relieve stress. 2 tsps. per gal for 5 days. Makes 28-30 gallons.<br />

Bromhexine Powder by Aviomed<br />

Bromhexine contains the purest and most<br />

potent source of Bromhexine-Hcl. Bromhexine<br />

stimulates the area responsible for clearing<br />

the respiratory system of mucus, bacteria and<br />

dust. It also stimulates excretion of mucus that is less<br />

thick and is excreted more easily. When Bromhexine is combined<br />

with respiratory antibiotics such as Mycoban (#2521) and AvioDox<br />

(#2519) it increases the levels of antibiotics in the lung tissue. Bromhexine<br />

is of tremendous aid in the treatment of respiratory disease<br />

in pigeons. Bromhexine may be combined with any antibiotic<br />

used in the treatment of respiratory disease for the first four<br />

days of treatment. Contains ultra pure, highly potent Bromhexine<br />

Hcl 1% m/m. (Does not contain banned stimulants or doping<br />

agents.) Warning! May only be used in the treatment of sick pigeons<br />

and should be withdrawn 72 hours before a race, training flight or<br />

competitive fly. Never combine with Furazolidone or Furaltadone!<br />

2 teaspoons to a gallon for the first four days of any respiratory antibiotic<br />

treatment. May safely be combined with all respiratory antibiotics.<br />

Clearify Liquid<br />

Prevention of RESPIRATORY problems is so very<br />

important, and yet no fancier wants to overuse<br />

antibiotics. Clearify, an ALL-NATURAL product, was introduced<br />

in 2015,and has become one of the bestselling<br />

pigeon respiratory treatments in all of Europe. If you race or<br />

fly your pigeons, a respiratory issue will reduce their ability to compete,<br />

as their breathing is affected. If your pigeons are not flying as<br />

long as they should, or upon landing, they are breathing with<br />

the mouth open, you may have a respiratory issue that needs your<br />

attention. Clearify is meant to PREVENT respiratory problems, and it<br />

is All NATURAL. Clearify produces no side effects and is more potent<br />

than Tylan. Use for three days every week starting a couple of<br />

weeks before the race season or competitive flying, and then twice a<br />

week during the flying season. For pigeons such as Racing Homers,<br />

Rollers and Tipplers. The 250 ml bottle will make a bit over 6 gallons<br />

of drinking water, and is safe in all weather conditions, including extremely<br />

hot days. Tests in Europe gave the pigeons 100% relief from<br />

respiratory diseases.<br />

days but in severe cases of paratyphoid as long as 45<br />

days. Effective treatment of Ornithosis, mycoplasmosis<br />

of respiratory disease, Enteritis, Bumblefoot<br />

and other bacterial infections. Also effective in treating Ornithosis<br />

5% formulation has been found to be most effective as well as most<br />

acceptable to pigeons when administered in drinking water. It is combined<br />

Spiradox by Aviomed<br />

Spiradox is currently by far the safest<br />

and most effective treatment for<br />

Orniplasmosis (combined infection and<br />

Mycoplasmosis). The two most common<br />

respiratory problems. The combination<br />

of antibiotics acts together optimally. It<br />

has the added advantage of not causing a<br />

loss of performance after treatment. The tablet is small and easy to<br />

dose sugar coated for individual treatment whereas the powder is recommended<br />

for larger lofts that are treating larger numbers of pigeons.<br />

Powder - Treat pigeons for 7 days continuously, at least 8 weeks before<br />

the racing season. Eight weekly preventative treatments, for 3<br />

days, during the season are advised. It is strongly advised to alternate<br />

treatment with Mycoban (#2521). Treatment must be extended to 7<br />

days during outbreak of disease. Treat breeding pigeons for 7 days,<br />

at least 8 weeks prior the start of the breeding season. Always combine<br />

with Avio-Bromhexine (#2522) for the first 4 days of treatment.<br />

Tablet - Treat ill pigeons continuously with 1 tablet per day for 7 days.<br />

Contains Doxycycline HCL, Spiramycin and Dextrose. The powder is<br />

used at the rate of 4 teaspoons to a gallon. It should be combined<br />

with #2522 Bromhexine for the first 4 days. Remove grit during treatment.<br />

respiratory problems, use one tablet daily for 7-10 days.<br />

Remove grit when treating.<br />

#27 Vetafarm’s Pigeon Respire 50 Tablets $26.00<br />

Tylan<br />

Highly recommended by Vets to treat many forms of respiratory<br />

problems. If your birds are of the flying variety<br />

and they are not performing as expected, you may have a<br />

respiratory issue. Mycoplasma Gallisepticum, a breathing<br />

problem, may be found in as many as 30% of the racing<br />

pigeon lofts. Overcrowding of young birds may bring this problem.<br />

Sometimes the birds show no symptoms and yet have respiratory<br />

problems. Tylan may also be an aid in treating one-eye colds. Tylan<br />

powder is used at the rate of 2 teaspoons per gallon for 5 days.<br />

#2501 Tylan Powder 100 gr. $39.00<br />

TIP: When you feed your birds, they should eat all the feed in 20<br />

minutes or so. Feed should not be left in the feeders overnight, it may<br />

attract vermin. When there are young in the nests, it would not be a<br />

bad idea to feed them twice, to be sure the young are getting enough<br />

feed from their parents. Pellets are a nice addition when you have<br />

young in the nests, pellets will put weight on the young quickly. When<br />

feeding pellets, the droppings will be much looser. 25% pellets and<br />

75% grain is a good mix,. If your birds have not eaten pellets before,<br />

they will be a bit hesitant to eat them at first, do not give them more<br />

feed until the pellets are eaten.<br />

1 Drop 1 Eye 1 Time by Dr. Pigeon<br />

When I spoke to Dr. Pigeon about this<br />

product, he warned me that a customer<br />

would only buy it once, because it lasted so long. If the bird<br />

has a one eye cold, this will get rid of it. One drop, in 1 eye,<br />

1 time and it’s gone. Makes over 900 drops. One fluid ounce<br />

dropper bottle.<br />

Forma Soothing Eye Drops by<br />

Versele-Laga<br />

Your pigeons have a very hard time<br />

during competition and while they are in the<br />

basket. Fighting may cause injuries and the<br />

poor ventilation in the basket leaves much to<br />

be desired. Keeping this in mind, it is almost<br />

impossible to avoid respiratory problems. The<br />

Forma Eye Drops are a way for checking the respiratory tract.<br />

The eye drops are meant to run away from the tear duct after application.<br />

The blue color should then be visible in the throat. Very<br />

easy to use. If the drops do not appear immediately in the throat,<br />

treat for respiratory issues. One drop in the nostril and in each eye<br />

the day of basketing for a competition, and the day they return from<br />

a race or day after a competition. If your pigeon has an eye problem,<br />

one drop in morning and one in the evening, into the eye.<br />

than the average fancier as they collect mucus in their<br />

years, has no respiratory issues. He swears by Doxycycline<br />

Powder, but does not use the Doxycycline Capsules, because if<br />

you hear a bird clearing its throat (grunting) he treats the whole<br />

flock, the bird that is grunting has most likely drank from the<br />

same water as the rest of the birds and could have spread the<br />

issue to other birds. Tim uses Doxycycline Powder twice a<br />

year, roughly every six months. Tim shares that he follows the<br />

Doxycycline with a probiotic.<br />

ADE Liquid<br />

Stress is always a problem with your pigeons,<br />

and when stressed, their immune system is<br />

weakened and susceptible to disease. Ade should be considered<br />

a prevention, because if you reduce stress, you<br />

reduce the chances of your birds getting sick. Ade is<br />

especially effective during the molt. This is an all-natural<br />

product that will help produce good feather. <strong>Supplies</strong> Vitamin A,<br />

D3, E and so much more. Mix 1-2 tablespoons with 2 pounds of<br />

feed. Use twice a week.<br />

Syringes and Needles<br />

There is a good reason why<br />

vaccines carry the note to<br />

dispose of all unused portions. The manufacturer<br />

assumes that the vaccine will be<br />

contaminated when the needle enters the<br />

vial. Bacteria can be added to the vaccine and will multiply or incubate<br />

until the vaccine is reused. PMV-1 is prevalent in the Pennsylvania<br />

area in wild pigeons, but it’s not very common in the fancier’s loft because<br />

all but a few vaccinate. I protect my birds by vaccinating them<br />

at weaning time. I take a 100 dose bottle, 10 syringes and 10 needles<br />

and fill all 10 with vaccine. I wrap the filled syringes in a plastic bag,<br />

label them, put them in the refrigerator. I remove and use a syringe as<br />

needed. It’s handy to have some rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle. I<br />

squirt the bird in the vaccination area until it’s soaked. The injection<br />

will be much easier and the chances of infection go down. You can<br />

vaccinate youngsters by yourself because at that age they’re much<br />

easier to handle and inject. We occasionally get calls from customers<br />

saying that they can not operate their syringe properly. They have to<br />

push real hard and it seems impossible to force the vaccine through.<br />

Here is what you need to do: Before you push the needle into the<br />

bottle, pull the plunger all the way back, then insert the needle. Push<br />

the plunger down as though you are pushing air into the bottle, then<br />

pull the plunger back to fill it. You may also remove the plunger and<br />

put a small amount of vegetable oil on the rubber “o” ring. Needles<br />

are size 20 X 1/2”.<br />

Show Water (By Dr. Pigeon)<br />

Nothing is more important than the quality<br />

of the birds drinking water. In response to<br />

the many calls about their birds getting sick after a show,<br />

<strong>Foy's</strong> formulated a product to address the problem. This is<br />

a NATURAL product meant to help prevent viral and bacterial<br />

infections, while the birds are in a show hall. Add to the drinking<br />

water 2-3 days before a show, during the show and 2-3 days after the<br />

show. They birds should not be watered, at the show by anyone but<br />

you, and you would use the water with Show Water added. HEALTHY<br />

SHOW WATER should be the only drinking water that the birds have<br />

access to and should be changed every day. Contents include Eyebright<br />

(respiratory), Plantain (Antibacterial), Marshmallow (respiratory<br />

and digestion), Echinacea (immune system boost), Thyme (immune<br />

system booster and disinfects), Chamomile (stress), Licorice (immune<br />

system, stress), Apple Cider Vinegar, Detox (increases acidity of water<br />

to reduce disease possibilities). The directions are 3 ml/cc to the 2 or<br />

3 ounce shoe cage cup. Before and after the show, you should add 2<br />

½ tablespoons to a gallon and bring to the show to give to your birds.<br />

We include a syringe to measure the 3 ml/cc used for the show cups.<br />

Bring your own water and use only at the shows. You may want to<br />

order a few extra syringes, perhaps the #354 35 cc or the #357 60 ml,<br />

which would make quicker than using the 6 cc syringe we include.<br />

The normal show cup used on the show cages is 2 oz. but that may<br />

vary. We include a 3cc syringe with every bottle of HEALTHY SHOW<br />

WATER, so it is very easy to use at the show. You may want to order<br />

a few extra syringes, #175, but one is all you should need at a show.<br />

Using a syringe, add to each show cup, change every day. We suggest<br />

you use a show cup filled with Healthy Show Water and fill your<br />

syringe from this cup.<br />

Ideal Bath Salts by Versele-Laga<br />

Parasites, mites and so on are a real problem<br />

with any pigeon loft. They damage feathers and<br />

put your pigeons under stress. Pigeons that cannot<br />

relax in their loft are never going to be in the best of<br />

condition, and for this reason it is very important to treat<br />

pigeons and their accommodations such as the loft, baskets and aviaries.<br />

The Ideal Orange Bath Salts in the bathwater gives the pigeons<br />

soft feathers and helps maintain the strength and waterresistant<br />

function of the feathers. One tablespoon to 2 ½ gallons of<br />

bath water and remove after they are done bathing. In the winter, one<br />

bath a week, flying season one or two times a week. Give cold bath<br />

water in the morning and warm bath water after a race or competing.<br />

#5022 Bath Salt 1.5 lbs. $9.00<br />

When the pigeons are setting on eggs, the cock has the easy job,<br />

he is on the eggs from late morning to about 4 P.M., the hen sits<br />

on the eggs the rest of the time. During breeding season, your loft<br />

will smell bad, on occasion. The parents do no leave the nest until<br />

their mate relieves them, and when relieved, the parent that has<br />

been on the eggs, finally releases their droppings and there is a<br />

lot and they smell awful.<br />

Belgium White<br />

A really pleasant smell will be noticed as soon as you sprinkle<br />

a bit of Belgium White. Scrape the floor clean, sweep it and<br />

then apply a cup at a time on the floor. Brush it around using a broom<br />

and get it in the cracks and corners. It is very absorbent and another<br />

use would be on the bottom of your nest boxes. Over time, the<br />

floor will become white from continued use. There are times<br />

when damp weather or stress creates loose droppings, and at these<br />

times Belgium White is of great value. The Belgium White sucks up<br />

the liquid and takes away the odor. Your loft floor will never<br />

look better and it will smell great.<br />

Perch Oil by Dr. Pigeon<br />

Do your birds tap dance on their perches or stamp<br />

their feet in the evening? Are the scales on their legs<br />

or feet raised? If so, they are being annoyed by the Red<br />

Mite. This mite does not live on the bird, it lives in the<br />

cracks around the perches and moves on the bird in the<br />

evening to suck blood. The Perch Oil is very effective in ridding<br />

your birds of these pests as well as other lice and mites. Squirt a<br />

small stream onto the perch and the areas surrounding it.<br />

drops to the skin. Will treat many birds. Complete directions on the<br />

hatchability of the egg, cover the hole with super glue<br />

AdenoS<br />

Together with customers having Adeono virus type I in their<br />

young birds, we developed, tested and optimised in 2016 a<br />

natural blend of organic acids able to suppress E.coli. The<br />

main ingredients of this new product are lactic acids and<br />

our own Improver.<br />

As a food additive lactic acid is approved "all over", including<br />

EU, USA and Australia and New Zealand as a food preservative.<br />

We found in our laboratory and field test that the combination<br />

of lactic acid and our best seller Improver has a tremendous<br />

effect on young bird disease as the disease had much less<br />

effect on young birds if they were given this product in the<br />

drinking water. We decided therefore to call this new product AdenoS.<br />

AdenoS does NOT kill the virus. However, the combination of the natural organic acids and vitamins in<br />

Improver, seems to reduce the bloom of E.coli when the pigeons are exposed to the Adeno Virus,<br />

and thereby taking the burden from the young birds. After 1-2 weeks the young bird survive and develop<br />

immunity to the virus. We also found that it was beneficial to mix AdenoS with our electrolyte Belgamax for<br />

the treatment:<br />

TREATMENT:<br />

For young birds showing signs of adenovirus i.e. vomiting and reluctance to train. Use in water 1 teaspoon<br />

to a quart for 5-6 days or until symtoms are absent. Preferably combine with electrolytes as e.g. Belgamax,<br />

1 teaspoon per litre water.<br />

PROPHYLACTIC (to avoid disease):<br />

Give AdenoS 1 teaspoon to a quart 3-4 successive days each week. In racing season give 3-4 successive<br />

days after race. Can be mixed with other Pigeon Vitality products !<br />

performance. Apple Cider Vinegar has proven to be inhospitable,<br />

to Paratyphoid/Salmonella and E. Coli. When something goes<br />

wrong in the throat, Apple Cider will help. It is a great product to use<br />

during the breeding season. Our Apple Cider Vinegar may be mixed<br />

one tablespoon per gallon of drinking water. Use a minimum of twice<br />

a week. On a personal note, we always seem to have bug problem at<br />

the house. (small bugs that fly around and are a pest). We solved the<br />

problem by placing a small bowl of Apple Cider Vinegar in the kitchen,<br />

near the sink and we no longer have the problem.<br />

When adding birds to your lofts, it is so very important to not<br />

introduce them to your birds until they have been quarantined<br />

for at least 30 days. If you were importing birds from outside<br />

the U.S., the federal government would hold them in quarantine<br />

for 30 days or more, you should do the same. New birds, introduced<br />

directly into your loft, is the #1 cause of your pigeons<br />

getting sick. Another way is to quarantine them, collect some<br />

fresh droppings and send these samples to Foy’s as directed<br />

on page 15.<br />

disease. Stress can be caused by a number of factors, however poultry<br />

hide problems very well until stress becomes critical. In all cases,<br />

FAST replacement nutrition is important or poultry can go into shock<br />

and die. Even disease is difficult to diagnose. When poultry begins to<br />

show obvious signs of illness, they are already seriously ill. Balanced,<br />

replacement nutrition should be used at the same time as antibiotics<br />

are being used. Nutri-Drench contains only Natural Nutritional Ingredients.<br />

In today's pigeon and<br />

issue, and if your birds attract a virus of<br />

any kind, there is no treatment, the virus<br />

must run its course. Prevention is the<br />

best way to prevent your flock from getting<br />

a virus and the old axiom "An ounce<br />

of prevention is worth a pound of cure", seems to have some bearing<br />

on prevention. Virkon S is independently proven effective against not<br />

only bacterial diseases, but more importantly, a powerful prevention<br />

from Viruses. It is important that you clean surfaces as well as you<br />

can, especially floors, before using Virkon S. Uses include solid flat surface<br />

and includes perches, walls, incubators and as a dip disinfectant.<br />

Kills pathogens ten time faster. Directions are: Powder - 1/3 ounce<br />

per gallon of water . A great idea to prevent spreading disease from<br />

loft to loft is to create a foot bath pan next to the entrance Usage the<br />

same directions for the Virkon S bucket. The tablets are used at the<br />

rate of two tablets per 34 ounces, just a bit more than a quart which<br />

is 32 ounces.<br />

Show Cage Grill<br />

These lightweight grills are designed for<br />

placing in a show cage. Many clubs<br />

have discontinued the use of shavings in<br />

a show hall. Without something for the<br />

bird to stand on, they will be standing in<br />

their own droppings. The grill may also be<br />

used in a nest box, under the nest bowl.<br />

I personally use them under my water containers. Moisture that collects<br />

under the water container will be a breeding ground for disease.<br />

You may also use them on the bottom of your carrying basket which<br />

keeps the bird’s feet clean without the use of shavings, which may<br />

irritate the bird’s eyes. Easily cut to fit any basket. 9 3/4" X 9 3/4".<br />

Plastic Nest Front<br />

A complete unit that may be set on the<br />

floor of the loft , hung on the wall or<br />

stacked one on top of the other to create<br />

an eight nest unit. The unit may be used<br />

for mating individual pairs, and is the pairs<br />

permanent home. For the Racing Pigeon<br />

flyers, it may be used as a widowhood<br />

nest box. You get two plastic nest fronts<br />

that swing in as needed, and we supply<br />

a door that slides up and down, you may install the door on whichever<br />

side you want. We ship the unit disassembled, but it is easy and<br />

quick to put together. We install all the black nest front holders, so you<br />

do not have to worry about where they go. All the screws are supplied<br />

and we pre-drill the hole so that you know where to place the screws.<br />

The first time I used one, I put it together in less than 15 minutes. Completely<br />

sanded and you may want to consider painting it before or after<br />

assembly. The total unit is 30 1/2" from left to right, 15 1/2" front to<br />

back and 30 1/2" high. Each nest box unit is 14" left to right, 14" front<br />

AdenoS Liquid<br />

AdenoS is not a treatment for the Adeno Virus,<br />

as you may know, there is no treatment for a<br />

virus. However, the combination of the natural organic<br />

acids and vitamins in Adeno S, seems to reduce the<br />

bloom of E.coli when the pigeons are exposed to the<br />

Adeno virus, and thereby taking the burden from the<br />

young birds. After 1-2 weeks the young birds survive<br />

and develop an immunity to the virus. We also found that it was beneficial<br />

to mix AdenoS with an electrolyte. Directions are to mix 4 teaspoons<br />

to a gallon of drinking water, change daily. For young birds<br />

showing signs of the Adeno virus, such as vomiting and a reluctance<br />

to fly. Four teaspoons to a gallon of drinking water until the symptoms<br />

are gone. Preferably combined with an electrolyte as directed.<br />

#339 Ketch All Mouse Trap $22.00<br />

To Jerry. In my loft I use yellow sulfer swept into the floor and<br />

all the cracks then put sand down. Spray the loft with Virkon S<br />

and my birds are on apple cider vinegar, 1 t. per gallon from the<br />

time the season stops until the next season starts. I put one of<br />

my friends on this program, his birds were dying 1 or 2 a day. I<br />

cleaned his coop, put sulfer and sand down, in 2 days no more<br />

birds died and he hasn't lost one since. Also, go in your loft<br />

at night, once or twice a week, spray the Oxine directly on the<br />

birds. That seemed to stop the virus dead in its tracks. Maybe<br />

it will help. It's worth a try. That's what I do and I haven't had a<br />

sick bird die ever. Sincerely, John G. Glemserloft.com<br />

STRESS<br />

The control of stress Is so important to the health and well being<br />

of your pigeons, and I have mentioned it many times in my writings<br />

and in this catalog. Stress may be caused by training, mating, racing,<br />

showing, introducing new birds, handling, hawks in the area and so<br />

much more. Stress lowers the ability of the pigeons immune system<br />

and this makes it harder to fight off disease that they might of easily<br />

fought off if not stressed. When you know your birds are going to be<br />

under stress, I suggest preparing before hand, say 3-4 days. Any of<br />

the products listed below will help, pick one that fits your needs such<br />

as for a small flock, large flock, powder, liquid, etc. A real aid in reducing<br />

stress is to spend time with your pigeons and they will get to know<br />

you and not be stressed when you walk in.<br />

to growth and Cholin for enhanced functioning of the liver.<br />

any stress period such as a race or show. A silky soft plumage is<br />

guaranteed. Initially we suggest 3 tablespoons to a gallon of drinking<br />

VITAMINS<br />

There is quite a bit of controversy as to the benefits of supplementing the water<br />

or feed with vitamins, probiotics and electrolytes. I am in contact with many vets<br />

on a regular basis, and all agree that the use of these products is of value and<br />

importance. If you have a virus, it is of utmost importance to add vitamins and<br />

electrolytes to the birds water or feed. The vitamins are to help the birds thru a<br />

virus, which is untreatable, and the electrolytes are to help a bird that quickly<br />

become dehydrated. If your birds have loose, watery droppings, they too are<br />

susceptible to dehydration and electrolytes should be used. Using a vitamin or<br />

electrolyte once a week is a waste of time, it would be like you taking a one a day<br />

vitamin, once a week. Regular use of vitamins and electrolytes, say 3-4 times a<br />

week will do you a world of good, but only over time. Probiotics, vitamins and<br />

electrolytes may be mixed together, combine each at the dosage on the packages.<br />

You may want to consider some of the products that are already combine.<br />

Turbo Flight<br />

If you race your pigeons, nothing is more important than<br />

SPEED! Turbo Flight has no other purpose but to increase<br />

the speed of your Racing Pigeons, naturally. Results of tests show that<br />

while flying on glycogen and carbohydrates (fats) in the blood stream<br />

and those stored in the liver, the pigeon can obtain higher speeds.<br />

Based on the results of field testing we recommend the following: Add<br />

one tablespoon to 2 lbs. of pigeon feed. Give this to your birds that<br />

are going to a race the next day, in the morning and around Noon.<br />

Basket them in the afternoon for the race the next day. Turbo Flight is<br />

meant to be used only for pigeons that are going to race within<br />

24 hours. Give Turbo Flight only when the pigeons will stay one<br />

night or less in the basket. If pigeons are not allowed to fly within<br />

24 hours after the Turbo Flight meal, they will use their added energy<br />

for fighting in the basket…..even the hens start fighting!!! A remarkable<br />

product and all natural but it must be used as directed! The dosage<br />

for the Turbo Flight Capsules is one capsule just before a race or training<br />

flight, it may be combined with Rebuild Capsules for optimum speed<br />

and endurance. Never give Turbo Flight during the week because it<br />

gives the birds an explosive burst of energy and the racing pigeon will<br />

reach its peak performance before the race.<br />

Sometimes older adult pigeons, when introduced to a new loft,<br />

will refuse to mate. This is especially true of the flying breeds<br />

such as Racing Homers, Tipplers, Rollers, etc. If returned to<br />

their former loft, they will immediately go back to normal breeding<br />

pattern. Over time, eventually go back to normal and start<br />

the breeding pattern in the new loft, but there are times when<br />

they never breed no matter what you do.<br />

cannot walk. Many time, this is because the hen has laid an egg<br />

and it depleted her reserves of calcium. Because of the lack of<br />

the proper amount of calcium in her body, it hurts the chickens<br />

to walk or fly. Give the bird a day or two and she will bounce<br />

back to normal.<br />

WEIGHT GAIN<br />

I get a lot of calls on how to put weight on our pigeons, and listed on<br />

this page are products that will help in that area. Keep in mind that<br />

unexpected loss of weight in pigeons when sick pigeons lose weight<br />

it is called “going light” and this is a symptom, not a disease. Much<br />

like you have, for some unknown reason, you do not feel well, a symptom,<br />

but you do not know why. Droppings analysis from the pigeons<br />

will most likely tell you the problem. If the birds seem healthy but light,<br />

than you may want to try something from this page. I have had good<br />

luck with raw peanuts. If the pigeons have never eaten peanuts, they<br />

may not want to try them. If they leave peanuts in the feeder, do not<br />

feed them again until they do eat them, once they accept the peanuts<br />

as feed, they will actually grow to like them, and eat them first.<br />

Brewer’s Yeast + Garlic<br />

Brewer's Yeast is a great source of Vitamin B<br />

Complex as well as a source of protein. Garlic<br />

offers the benefits of a better moult, white nose wattles,<br />

aids in digestion, reduces stress, and birds love<br />

it. 1 tablespoon per gallon of drinking water or 1 tablespoon<br />

feed moistened with an oil or #2531 Avio Gel. Use as often as<br />

desired on about 21 lbs. of feed, but a minimum of 2 times a week.<br />

using it in the drinking water at the rate of 1 1/2 teaspoons per gallon.<br />

#2483 Grow-2-Max 3.5 oz. $9.00<br />

Glucose + by Versele-Laga<br />

Gloucose + is a Natural sugar present in a lot of plants. It is<br />

easy to digest and is absorbed directly into the bloodstream,<br />

this makes Glucose + extremely suitable as a quick energy provider<br />

after a long exertion. By adding vitamin to the glucose the pigeon<br />

is simultaneously provided with important substances for the proper<br />

functioning of the metabolism and the pigeon can recover much faster.<br />

Composition is Glucose (99.8% / Lactose. 2-5 level tablespoons<br />

per liter (a bit more than a quart) of drinking water on return from a<br />

long flight and may also be given in the drinking water when using<br />

medicines to improve the flavor of the water. Change daily. Packed in<br />

a large 400 gram container.<br />

#1716 Glucose + Powder 400 grams $9.00<br />

Change the water as often as possible, at least once a day.<br />

Apple Cider Vinegar creates an acidic environment in the drinking<br />

water and makes it much harder for bacteria such as Paratyphoid<br />

to survive. Use only organic Apple Cider Vinegar such<br />

as found at Foy’s. The organic apple cider vinegar will have a<br />

cloudy appearance and needs shaken before use.<br />

No Light Pills (Ideal Pills)<br />

Mild laxative and conditioner for<br />

pigeons. For pigeons off feed,<br />

listless or “going light”. For breeding<br />

powerful youngsters and to increase appetite.<br />

B-Chol Liver Tonic<br />

B-Chol promotes plumage growth and<br />

moult, increases appetite, activates the<br />

digestion, helps with the liver function and purifies<br />

the blood. The removal of harmful substances<br />

from the pigeon’s body is essential for maintaining good health.<br />

B-Chol stimulates the excretion of bile and the proper digestion. B-<br />

Chol will promote the discharge of harmful substances and gats for<br />

the liver. B-Chol is recommended after the treatment with antibiotics<br />

to support the liver function. B-Chol includes vitamin B-12 which<br />

helps in good condition. B-Chol promotes the moult thru the presence<br />

of amino acids. Sulphuric amino acids are essential for the<br />

production of keratin, the building blocks for feathers and skin.<br />

it a great source of fat and protein. This is<br />

a good way to add weight to the birds. They may<br />

not eat the first time it is in front of them, but once<br />

they eat it, they will eat it before anything else.<br />

#7020 Raw Peanuts 10 lbs. $20.00<br />

TIP: In my loft I use yellow sulfer swept into the floor and all the<br />

cracks then put sand down. Spray the loft with Virkon S and my birds<br />

are on apple cider vinegar, 1 T. per gallon from the time the season<br />

stops until the next season starts. I put one of my friends on this program,<br />

his birds were dying 1 or 2 a day, I cleaned his coop, put sulfer<br />

and sand down, in 2 days no more birds died and he hasn't lost one<br />

since. Also , go in your loft at night, once or twice a week, spray the<br />

Oxine directly on the birds. That seemed to stop the virus dead in<br />

its tracks. Maybe it will help. It's worth a try. That's what I do and I<br />

haven't had a sick bird die ever. Sincerely, John G.<br />

TREAT | REWARD<br />

Pigeons, like people, love treats and actually look forward to them and<br />

treats are a powerful tool in training your birds to do what you want.<br />

I have a small flock of chickens, and they are fed layer pellets. These<br />

chickens are free range and if for some reason I want them to come<br />

close to the house, I have taught them to recognize my whistle, When I<br />

started to train them, they did not know why I was whistling, but I tried<br />

to get close to them and when I whistled, I threw them a small amount<br />

of bread. Over a very short time, when I whistled, they just about flew<br />

to me, and I now have them trained to eat out of my hand. Pigeons are<br />

the same, if you want to train them, reward them. My pigeons are also<br />

trained to come into the loft when I whistle, I never let them fly unless<br />

they are a bit hungry. I start their training by letting them go out to the<br />

aviary which has a removable screened in top that is easy to remove.<br />

With the screened aviary on, I open the trap and make sure they are<br />

all outside, some I have to catch and place outside. I then close the<br />

trap and then place a treat in their feeder. I whistle when I do this, but<br />

of course they do not know why I am whistling. When they come in<br />

they find their treat. A while after the treat, I then give them their regular<br />

feed. I do not feed them again until the next day, and I repeat the<br />

process with the whistle and the trap closed. Over time they figure out<br />

that's why I whistle, and they come in. When I think they are trained, I<br />

then remove the aviary and close the trap. When I want to have them<br />

return, I whistle and put the feed in the feeder, not enough for a meal,<br />

just enough to entice them to return. The key is that they need to be<br />

hungry to return. Oh, I drive my chickens crazy when I am training my<br />

pigeons, they hear the whistle and come flying expecting a treat and I<br />

do give them a very small amount of bread. If you have chickens and<br />

pigeons, perhaps shake a can with feed in it as one of the signals so<br />

as not to confuse the chickens.<br />

Pigeon Candy<br />

A really special mixture of small seeds<br />

used as a special treat or as a feed to<br />

convelesing pigeons. Many times a pigeon with<br />

B-Chol Liver Tonic by Versele-Laga<br />

B-Chol promotes plumage growth and<br />

moult, increases appetite, activates the<br />

digestion, helps with the liver function and purifies<br />

the blood. The removal of harmful substances<br />

from the pigeon’s body is essential for maintaining<br />

good health. B-Chol stimulates the excretion of bile and the proper digestion.<br />

B-Chol will promote the discharge of harmful substances and<br />

fats for the liver. B-Chol is recommended after the treatment with antibiotics<br />

to support the liver function. B-Chol includes vitamin B-12 which<br />

helps in good condition. B-Chol promotes the moult thru the presence<br />

of amino acids. Sulphuric amino acids are essential for the production<br />

of keratin, the building blocks for feathers and skin. A unique<br />

blend based on sulphuric amino acids, biotin, sorbitol and vitamin B12.<br />

Composition: Liquid sorbitol / Saccharose. 2 bottle caps (10 ml) to a<br />

quart of water or 2 ½ tablespoons to a gallon. 2 days a week during the<br />

moulting season and for five consecutive days after use of antibiotics.<br />

TIP: Pigeons lay two eggs, the male sits on the eggs during the day<br />

and the hen through the night. Pigeons moult once a year. A pigeon’s<br />

eggs take from 17-19 days to hatch. Pigeons will sometimes lay their<br />

eggs in the corner, on the floor, even though there are empty nest<br />

boxes. If they on the floor, you cannot move the eggs more than a<br />

few inches, if you do, they will leave the eggs. It is a good idea to<br />

place a nest bowl with the first egg placed in it, along with some<br />

nesting material formed to fit the bowl.<br />

PRODUCTS FOR SHOWING BIRDS<br />

At Foy’s we get many calls or e-mails about someone coming<br />

home from a show and their birds getting sick. After talking to<br />

vet’s from around the world, we have come to this conclusion; The<br />

actual show and all the accumulation of pigeons, is in most cases<br />

not the reason your birds get sick after the show. Most vets agree<br />

that it is the whole process of showing the birds that is the problem.<br />

It begins with you collecting the pigeons to put them in baskets to<br />

take to the show, this is where the stress begins. Then the actual<br />

trip to the show, whether you take them yourself, someone else takes<br />

them or you send them, more stress. Then you take them out of the<br />

crates or boxes and put them in the show cages, more stress. At<br />

some point a runner takes them out of the cage to the judging cage,<br />

more stress. The judge then pokes at them with a judging stick,<br />

picks them up for a better look and then the runner takes them back<br />

to the show cage, a lot more stress. While in the show hall, they are<br />

fed, in most cases, with a feed they are not used to and water that is<br />

not what they drink at home. Then the whole process repeats itself as<br />

the birds are returned to their home loft. You may want to bring your<br />

feed with you, as well as a couple of jugs of water with you. Mark each<br />

show cage with a notice to not feed or water the birds, you do it. It is<br />

a fact that stress reduces the immune system and a weakened immune<br />

system invites disease. If the immune system was strong, most<br />

of the health issues will not occur. Your pigeons, before the whole<br />

show process began, may have been carrying a disease but it was<br />

never a problem because their strong immune system could fight it<br />

off. Yes, there could have been sick birds at the show, that showed<br />

no symptoms, and your birds might have fought it off, but their immune<br />

system was weakened. When you show your pigeons, I would<br />

strongly suggest that, on return from the show, do not put the birds<br />

shown back in with your other pigeons, segregate the birds shown in<br />

a cage or empty loft section for a minimum of two weeks. Preparation<br />

for the show is so important as well as when you bring the birds back.<br />

I would suggest the use of Show Water as a product to use before,<br />

during and after any show. The segregation period is at least two<br />

weeks out, 4 weeks is better. Just like any contest, the winners are<br />

usually those that were prepared correctly. Preparation, preparation,<br />

preparation, it is one of the basics of success.<br />

Judging Stick<br />

Extends to 2 feet, collapses to 5". Metal<br />

with a pocket clip. You should use a judging<br />

stick while preparing your birds for the<br />

show room. A bird that has been trained with a<br />

judging stick, will be much calmer in the judging<br />

cage at a show.<br />

Perfect Water<br />

A blend of natural ingredients that serve several<br />

functions. The product is comprised of vitamins,<br />

electrolytes, organic acids, and probiotics made specifically<br />

for pigeons. This is a complete, daily use product.<br />

Used successfully by several one loft races, as well as<br />

many breeders and flyers across the U.S., Mexico, and Canada.<br />

Add 1/2 teaspoon per gallon of water. One jar makes over 120 gallons.<br />

Perfect Water lowers the p.h. of the water. The growth of<br />

good gut bacteria. Perfect Water contains a natural De-Chlorinator.<br />

Chlorine will kill probiotics. Nothing is as important as clean safe<br />

drinking water.<br />

PRODUCTS FOR SHOWING BIRDS<br />

Pedestal<br />

I attend many shows every year and this<br />

pedestal would certainly fill some needs at<br />

these shows. Many shows no longer allow shavings<br />

in the cage. Since pigeons naturally go to<br />

the highest place, these pedestals will have your birds perched<br />

above any droppings. They will have clean feet when they go up<br />

for judging. Another use is when you would like to take a picture of<br />

your birds. It looks so much better when your bird is standing on a<br />

pedestal rather than the floor of a cage or box. 4 1/4" diameter and<br />

1 3/4" high.<br />

2 oz. Show Cage Cups<br />

We have had a request for these and have<br />

finally found a source in Europe. The little<br />

cups are made to fit between the vertical bars of a<br />

show or judging cage. Will not come loose. Holds<br />

just enough feed or water for one bird for a day. Order some for feed<br />

and some for water.<br />

Water Bulb<br />

There are occasions when you want to be sure your<br />

birds have enough water in them, such as before a long<br />

race or shipping them. Merely fill the bulb, insert it down<br />

their throat and squeeze. Also great to be sure a baby<br />

bird has water in it.<br />

Feeder / Waterer Syringes<br />

We’ve all been faced with the decision that in order to save<br />

a special young bird, we are going to have to hand feed it.<br />

These syringes are also helpful when you want to measure a medication<br />

or administer a<br />

medication.<br />

Many fanciers treat with antibiotics regularly, whether it is needed or not,<br />

it becomes a habit, and in many cases a waste. Be especially careful with<br />

youngsters as drugs may cause adverse effect much more easy than the<br />

adults. If you did not have problems with canker last year, and have not<br />

brought in new birds, you may want to consider skipping the preventive<br />

treatment.<br />

Show Water (By Dr. Pigeon)<br />

Nothing is more important than the quality of<br />

the birds drinking water. In response to the<br />

many calls about their birds getting sick after a show, <strong>Foy's</strong> formulated<br />

a product to address the problem. This is a NATURAL<br />

product meant to help prevent viral and bacterial infections, while the<br />

birds are in a show hall. Add to the drinking water 2-3 days before<br />

a show, during the show and 2-3 days after the show. They<br />

birds should not be watered, at the show by anyone but you, and you<br />

would use the water with Show Water added. HEALTHY SHOW<br />

WATER should be the only drinking water that the birds have access<br />

to and should be changed every day. Contents include Eyebright<br />

(respiratory), Plantain (Antibacterial), Marshmallow (respiratory and digestion),<br />

Echinacea (immune system boost), Thyme (immune system<br />

booster and disinfects), Chamomile (stress), Licorice (immune system,<br />

stress), Apple Cider Vinegar, Detox (increases acidity of water to<br />

reduce disease possibilities). The directions are 3 ml/cc to the 2 or<br />

3 ounce per show cage cup. Before and after the show, you should<br />

add 2 ½ tablespoons to a gallon and bring to the show to give to your<br />

birds. We include a syringe to measure the 3 ml/cc used for the show<br />

cups. Bring your own water and use only at the shows. You may want<br />

to order a few extra syringes, perhaps the #354 35 cc or the #357 60<br />

ml, which would make quicker than using the 6 cc syringe we include.<br />

The normal show cup used on the show cages is 2 oz. but that may<br />

vary. We include a 3cc syringe with every bottle of HEALTHY SHOW<br />

WATER, so it is very easy to use at the show. You may want to order<br />

a few extra syringes, #175, but one is all you should need at a show.<br />

Using a syringe, add to each show cup, change every day.<br />

Bromhexine Powder by Aviomed<br />

Bromhexine contains the purest and most<br />

potent source of Bromhexine-Hcl. Bromhexine<br />

stimulates the area responsible for clearing<br />

the respiratory system of mucus, bacteria and<br />

dust. It also stimulates excretion of mucus that is<br />

less thick and is excreted more easily. When Bromhexine<br />

is combined with respiratory antibiotics such as Mycoban<br />

(#2521) and AvioDox (#2519) it increases the levels of antibiotics in<br />

the lung tissue. Bromhexine is of tremendous aid in the treatment of<br />

respiratory disease in pigeons. Bromhexine may be combined with<br />

any antibiotic used in the treatment of respiratory disease for the first<br />

four days of treatment. Contains ultra pure, highly potent Bromhexine<br />

Hcl 1% m/m. (Does not contain banned stimulants or doping<br />

agents.) Warning! May only be used in the treatment of sick pigeons<br />

and should be withdrawn 72 hours before a race, training flight or<br />

competitive fly. Never combine with Furazolidone or Furaltadone!<br />

2 teaspoons to a gallon for the first four days of any respiratory antibiotic<br />

treatment. May safely be combined with all respiratory antibiotics.<br />

Dulcovit Liquid Vitamin by Versele-Laga<br />

Vitamins are complex substances which the<br />

pigeon needs to regulate the biological process<br />

in the body. Vitamins are extremely important<br />

for good health. The pigeon is unable to make<br />

the majority of vitamins itself and consequently<br />

these have to be absorbed through the drinking<br />

water. Vitamins, D-Pantothenic and Nicotinic acid.<br />

Ducolvit supports the general good health, helps in the recovery after<br />

illness and an excellent product to use during the breeding season.<br />

Use throughout the year, once a week. Twice a week during stressful<br />

periods such as breeding, sickness and heavy exertion. 6 bottle caps<br />

to a liter (Quart) of drinking water or measure out the 6 caps in to a<br />

small container and mark how much is in the container, saving time so<br />

that you do not have to measure out 6 caps each time. Change daily.<br />

B-Chol Liver Tonic by<br />

Versele-Laga<br />

B-Chol promotes plumage<br />

growth and moult, increases appetite,<br />

activates the digestion, helps with the<br />

liver function and purifies the blood.<br />

The removal of harmful substances from<br />

the pigeon’s body is essential for maintaining<br />

good health. B-Chol stimulates the<br />

excretion of bile and the proper digestion.<br />

B-Chol will promote the discharge of harmful substances and fats for<br />

the liver. B-Chol is recommended after the treatment with antibiotics<br />

to support the liver function. B-Chol includes vitamin B-12 which helps<br />

in good condition. B-Chol promotes the moult thru the presence of<br />

amino acids. Sulphuric amino acids are essential for the production<br />

of keratin, the building blocks for feathers and skin. A unique<br />

blend based on sulphuric amino acids, biotin, sorbitol and vitamin B12.<br />

Composition: Liquid sorbitol / Saccharose. 2 bottle caps (10 ml) to a<br />

quart of water or 2 ½ tablespoons to a gallon. 2 days a week during the<br />

moulting season and for five consecutive days after use of antibiotics.<br />

#1742 B-Chol Liver Tonic 250 ml / 8 oz. $18.00<br />

If you like to add medicine, supplements, vinegar, etc. I would suggest<br />

you not use a galvanized metal drinker. Many products, over<br />

time, will corrode the metal. Pigeons mate for life, but if one of<br />

the pair is taken away or dies, the other will re-mate to another<br />

bird very quickly. You may switch around eggs and babies at any<br />

time. The babies need to be just about the same size and the eggs<br />

no more than 1-2 days of the date laid. I mark all my eggs with a<br />

sharpie, the day laid for just this reason.<br />

Herbolan Liquid Tonic by Versele-Laga<br />

richest food sources on earth. Includes 10 vitamins, 8 minerals and 18<br />

amino acids. Add one tablespoon to a litre (A bit more than a quart)<br />

of drinking water or four tablespoons to a gallon. Two or three times<br />

Acid Pak 4 Way<br />

A unique blend of organic acids, enzymes,<br />

to the pigeons, you should give it every day<br />

for a week and from there forward, you only need to<br />

give it once a week. Do not mix with other products. Acid Pak 4 Way<br />

is very economical to use as all you add is ¼ teaspoon per one gallon<br />

of drinking water. The first seven days be sure to give a fresh batch<br />

every day.<br />

There are just a few things that will cause a pigeon to vomit. The<br />

first thing I would suspect is if you have recently wormed your birds<br />

with a product such as Levimazole, don’t be concerned, the drug<br />

will still do its job, but in the future, use Levimazole on an empty<br />

stomach. Adeno Virus is another thing that will cause a pigeon to<br />

vomit. Like most viruses, it is not treatable, it must run its course.<br />

What you can do is switch to a feed such as Pigeon Candy or<br />

Short Beak feed, they contain grains that are much easier digested.<br />

Treating with an antibiotic during a bout of any virus, does not<br />

treat the virus, but does treat secondary infections which are quite<br />

common with a virus.<br />

NPA LEGACY FUND<br />

As a pigeon fancier for over 65 years, and owner of a pigeon business for over 25 years, I have<br />

witnessed the slow decline of the hobby. There a number of reasons for this decline, and most can<br />

figure out the reasons. Eleven years ago, some far sighted National Pigeon Fanciers, decided to<br />

look at the future a create a vehicle to fund projects that would help the great hobby of keeping<br />

pigeons. The NPA Legacy Fund Trust was created and started to accept contributions. The fund<br />

raising started out slowly, people had to get used to the idea and many waited to be sure the idea<br />

worked and would grow. Although the National Pigeon Association Legacy Fund Trust is an arm of the National Pigeon Association, it is meant to benefit or help the<br />

entire pigeon hobby. The Trust accepts contributions from all those who have an interest in supporting the great hobby. We have received contributions from family<br />

members of pigeon fanciers, both in honor of or in memorial. We have received contributions from non NPA members who enjoy their pigeons and want to help the<br />

hobby. Many clubs have sent in contributions and some of these clubs do or plan to, make a contribution every year. All contributions are cumulative, meaning every<br />

time you contribute, your contributions accumulate and you are getting closer to the next contribution level. Contributions, when they reach $100.00 or more, are<br />

recognized in the National Pigeon Association Quarterly, twice a year. The contribution will also be listed on the NPA website.<br />

Gold Band Level The first level, which is $100.00 which is needed to be listed forever in the Quarterly and the web site. A certificate is sent to the contributor in case<br />

of a memorial or the to the person honored.<br />

Ruby Band Level<br />

Platinum Band Level<br />

The second level which is the $500.00 level, and a Ruby Certificate, in a frame, is awarded.<br />

The third level is reached when contributions reach the $1000.00 level. Another appreciative framed certificate is sent.<br />

Other levels are in place, they are;<br />

Diamond $5000.00 Presidents $10,000.00 Vision $50,000.00<br />

Some of our members have included the Trust in their wills, and this is a great way of their recognizing the need and doing what they can to continue this great hobby.<br />

One such person has made us aware of a future contribution of $15,000, and others have also added the Trust to their will. If you are person who would consider<br />

adding the Trust to your will, please inform us of this future contribution.<br />

Listed below are all of the contributors, to date. Another way to help is to consider donating pigeon related items or pigeons. The Trust plans on having an auction in<br />

the future and each item sold at this auction, will be recognized and if the contribution garners $100.00 or more, the appropriate level will be listed as if it were a cash<br />

contribution. If the auctioned items do not reach the $100.00 dollar level or for that matter is close to any level, the contributor may add to the amount. For instance,<br />

your contribution reaches $75.00, if you send in a contribution of $25.00 and you will have attained the Gold Band Level.<br />

Contributions are to made out to NPA LFT and mailed to Jerry Gagne, Chairman LFT, 3170 Bennett’s Run Rd., Beaver Falls, Pa. 15010 724-359-5355<br />

digestion, boosts the immune system and strengthens the whole body.<br />

The allicin in garlic has a strong antibacterial effect against streptococci,<br />

which may be the cause of some respiratory problems. Garlic, being considered<br />

a natural antibiotic, and in many cases you can avoid the use of<br />

antibiotics. Like anything, Garlic can be over used and could do more<br />

damage than benefits. Garlic should not be used with antibiotics.<br />

exertion of flights. It is suggested that you use electrolytes during an outbreak of<br />

Digestal Plus Florastimul Powder<br />

by Versele-Laga<br />

There are bacteria in pigeons digestive<br />

tract which are essential for a good digestion. There<br />

are good bacteria predominate in a healthy pigeon.<br />

However if the pathogenic bacteria (BAD) predominate,<br />

the pigeon will have watery droppings resulting<br />

in loss of large amounts of fluids and electrolytes.<br />

When you give antibiotics, the antibiotic kills all bacteria,<br />

both good and bad. Digestal serves as a food for the good intestinal<br />

flora (probiotics) and will also ensure that the pathogenic (bad) bacteria<br />

are no longer able to stick to the intestinal wall so that the natural<br />

intestinal flora can recover. The goal is always to prevent disease, and<br />

the regular use of Digestal is a huge step in that direction. Composition:<br />

Citrus Pulp, Dextrose, Sodium Chloride and Mannanoligosacchrides<br />

(MOS). In Europe, it is understood that many pigeon products<br />

get the best results when used on the feed. One measure (included)<br />

to 1 kg (2.2 lbs.) of feed that has been dampened with a top quality<br />

oil such as Ferti-Oil or Form-Oil Plus. Uses include when you have<br />

watery diarrhea (e.g. Young Bird Disease), in youngsters preventatively<br />

two or three times a week after they have been weaned and<br />

after they return from a race or competitive fly, for two days before the<br />

race or competition. Make fresh daily.<br />

#1715 Digestal Plus Florastimul Powder $21.00<br />

300 grams/ 10.5 oz.<br />

Many medications lose some of their potency a short time after<br />

opening. If the medication is not in a tight screw type container and<br />

lid, it is suggested placing the medication in an air tight zip-lock<br />

bag. If you have a Seal-A-Meal food sealer, this would be ideal.<br />

now realize that the book does fill that need, but it is also a<br />

good booklet for those with little information about keeping<br />

pigeons. I guess another good title for the book would<br />

have been, Pigeons for Dummies. The information is very<br />

basic and if you are an experience pigeon keeper, but not in the dove<br />

release business, you probably don’t need this basic information. The<br />

WHITE BIRD RELEASE(bold) business is growing in leaps and bounds,<br />

and is an excellent way to add some extra income or a lot of extra income.<br />

If you are retired, it might add a bit of income to your retirement<br />

acid to be produced in the muscles and the pigeon has greater<br />

stamina during the flight. Through an optimized metabolism<br />

Perch Oil by Dr. Pigeon<br />

Do your birds tap dance on their perches or stamp<br />

their feet in the evening? Are the scales on their legs<br />

or feet raised? If so, they are being annoyed by the Red Mite.<br />

This mite does not live on the bird, it lives in the cracks around<br />

the perches and moves on the bird in the evening to suck blood.<br />

The Perch Oil is very effective in ridding your birds of these pests as<br />

well as other lice and mites. Squirt a small stream onto the perch and<br />

the areas surrounding it.<br />

Ferti-Oil by Versele-Laga<br />

Wheat Germ Oil enriched with vitamins A, D3 and<br />

E (Fertility Vitamin). Ferti-Oil decreases the risk<br />

of unfertilized eggs, promotes a simultaneous and easy<br />

lay and stimulates the cock to drive the hens. Wheat<br />

Germ Oil is food stuff, richest in vitamin E and in addition contains<br />

selenium and beta-carotene. Also contains high levels of unsaturated<br />

fatty acids and high quality lecithin. This combination with the right<br />

amount of vitamin A and D3 has a double effect in breeding: the pigeons<br />

have greater drive and will to lay eggs at approximately the<br />

same time. In addition the likelihood of unfertilized eggs is much lower.<br />

#1723 Ferti-Oil 100 ml/3.38 oz. $15.00<br />

Perfect Oil<br />

Perfect Oil is a blend of oils specifically formulated for<br />

pigeons. Each of the FIVE Oils in Perfect Oil are used<br />

for a specific reason. Lecithin supports the LIVER and also will<br />

emulsify the oils inside the birds body to help them better absorb<br />

the oil and gain all the benefits of Perfect Oil. Flax seed oil<br />

is a great source of Omega 6 which keeps the feather and skin<br />

healthy. Hemp seed oil has the benefit of supplying Omega 3 antioxidants<br />

as well as some vitamins and minerals. Walnut oil is rich in<br />

Melatonin that regulates moulting and breeding. Krill oil is the best<br />

source of Omega 3 and also helps Perfect Oil from going rancid at<br />

room temperature. Krill oil is 48 times more potent in ORAC antioxidant<br />

power than fish oil. ORAC is a standard that antioxidant values<br />

are measured, and Krill oil has one of the highest ORAC values on<br />

the planet. Soy oil is a much better carrier than Sunflower oil which is<br />

normally used in oil mixes. Oil does not mix well with water so Perfect<br />

Oil is used over the feed at the rate of one teaspoon to three pounds<br />

of feed. It is suggested that you start using PERFECT OIL two weeks<br />

before breeding season all the way thru to the weaning of the young<br />

birds, but it may be used year round and also may be used every day<br />

Used as directed should treat over 50 lbs. of feed. Change daily. Do<br />

not use more than directed. SHAKE WELL BEFORE USING. With<br />

the inclusion of Krill Oil to the Perfect Oil, you have an oil will keep the<br />

oil flowing, even in a very cold loft. We are in a cold climate here in<br />

Pennsylvania and it was left in the loft all winter and never solidified.<br />

substances. The various components<br />

are essential for optimum digestion and to increase<br />

gizzard so that all nourishing substances can be<br />

perfectly assimilated. The red brick particles and<br />

the shell fragments provide the necessary minerals<br />

and trace-elements. The grit is heated to over 200 C to eliminate<br />

all harmful micro-organisms. Grit should always be available so<br />

that the pigeons can help themselves accordingly. Imported from<br />

and hard to find trace minerals. You will need to add 50 pounds<br />

each of granite grit and crushed oyster shell, which should be available<br />

at a local co-op. More economical than premixed, prepackaged<br />

A natural source of calcium. A<br />

must before and during breeding<br />

grit you use does not contain oyster shell, we<br />

suggest you add some. A good pigeon grit may<br />

contain as much as 45% oyster shell. Especially<br />

important if you have a hen locked up for breeding.<br />

Show Scoop<br />

I find the small scoops quite handy,<br />

I use them to fill the breeding cages<br />

feed cups, as the larger scoops are too large and<br />

you spill feed when trying to fill the smaller containers, the same for<br />

the grit. Heavy duty plastic. I use the large scoop to fill the feeders.<br />

Feeding Trays<br />

I think this is a really great idea for the fancier<br />

who enjoys spending time in the loft, feeding<br />

the birds. This is a method the Europeans have enjoyed<br />

for years. Place the tray on the floor and place<br />

feed in it. The birds will flock to the floor and eat from the tray, keeping<br />

the floor clean. They will push and shove trying to get to the choice<br />

seeds, and that's part of the fun. When you have decided they have<br />

had enough, remove the tray. This allows you to control the feed and<br />

the birds become quite tame. Ring a bell, shake a can of feed or use<br />

a whistle everytime you feed and they will quickly recognize the sound<br />

as feeding time. Do not dump a bunch of feed in the tray. Add a<br />

handful at a time. Colors vary.<br />

Available in the large, time saving,<br />

19.5" x 19.5" x 2.5". They are<br />

strong enough to hold anyone walking on<br />

them and each grate locks into the one<br />

next to it. Birds are much less likely to nest<br />

on the floor and over open floor joists, it<br />

allows droppings to fall through and lots of<br />

fresh air coming up. Used in Europe for years. Easy to lock together<br />

1/2" X 39 1/2". These units may be used as<br />

a floor for a new loft, or as a built up floor<br />

for your existing floor. Because of the super<br />

strength of the grate, it needs no center support, only support<br />

around the edges. Other possible uses are at the entrance to<br />

your loft to clean your feet or as a deck around the loft. Because<br />

of the size, we can not ship the grate by UPS, unless we cut it in<br />

half, lengthwise. We will cut it at no additional charge. If you order<br />

10 or more, it need not be cut and we will ship it via truck freight.<br />

Show Cage Grill<br />

These lightweight grills are designed for<br />

placing in a show cage. Many clubs<br />

have discontinued the use of shavings in<br />

a show hall. Without something for the<br />

bird to stand on, they will be standing in<br />

their own droppings. The grill may also be<br />

used in a nest box, under the nest bowl.<br />

I personally use them under my water containers. Moisture that collects<br />

under the water container will be a breeding ground for disease.<br />

You may also use them on the bottom of your carrying basket which<br />

keeps the bird’s feet clean without the use of shavings, which may<br />

irritate the bird’s eyes. Easily cut to fit any basket. 9 3/4" X 9 3/4".<br />

hook allows you to catch the chicken by the leg. The wire shaft is<br />

From inside the loft,<br />

Makes training your birds a breeze. No trap shyness as the birds do<br />

not have to come through swinging bobs. Hinged so that you can<br />

release the birds through the same opening. Many use this trap with<br />

the Electronic Racing Timers. The sizes shown are the exterior measurements,<br />

not the entrance size. I now use these and love them. The<br />

<strong>Foy's</strong> Bob Trap<br />

We build these<br />

bestselling traps in<br />

our own wood shop, using<br />

the Foy’s Individual<br />

Aluminum Bobs. We include<br />

a turn button on<br />

each side which allows you<br />

#2130 #2132<br />

to lock all the Bobs in the open position, when needed.<br />

Heavy duty. Built in four sizes, but if none of the four meet your<br />

needs, we will be glad to give you a quote for and custom size. All<br />

of our Foy’s Bob Traps are made with a pine wood frame that is cut<br />

smooth and sanded for a very smooth finish. It would be a good idea<br />

to paint or varnish the wood for years and years of use. If you plan<br />

on building your own trap, you will need one space for each trap.<br />

The spacer keeps the first bob from hitting the wood frame. Included<br />

with the trap is a turn button that holds the bobs in the up position<br />

to allow the birds access to the outside, or the aviary. 3/16” heavy<br />

duty, light weight, aluminum bobs. The cross rods that the bobs slip<br />

onto are ¼” aluminum. Custom sizes are available, call for quote.<br />

<strong>Foy's</strong> Aluminum Trap<br />

Finally a trap that will last a lifetime and<br />

no worry about rotting out over time. The<br />

AMERICAN ALUMINUM TRAP is made in Ohio by<br />

our own John Raber. John has been working for<br />

<strong>Foy's</strong> for quite a few years now, and we constantly receive compliments<br />

about his quality wood products, and in the last couple of years<br />

he has been able to create new products such as our Aluminum Bobs.<br />

The AMERICAN ALUMINUM TRAP, is made similar to our <strong>Foy's</strong> Bob<br />

Trap. In order to release the birds to fly outside, lock the bobs in the<br />

up position, and they are free to come and go as they please. Drop<br />

the bobs down and they no longer can go outside after they return<br />

and drop into the loft. The bobs may also be locked into place and in<br />

this position it will prevent anything from entering the lost. The heavy<br />

Duty bobs are 3/16" thick but very lightweight. The bobs will not bend<br />

if a bird or critter tries to enter when they are locked in position. All<br />

aluminum construction with plastic corners, will not rust or corrode.<br />

Custom sizes are available, please contact <strong>Foy's</strong> for a quote.<br />

Foy’s 3-1 Trap and Landing Perch<br />

This handy unit is great for someone with<br />

a smaller loft. The trap when down, allows<br />

the birds to enter but can not go out. In the up position,<br />

they can come and go as they please. The landing perch<br />

becomes a varmint guard to block the opening in the up<br />

position. In the down position it is a landing perch when<br />

the birds return from a flight. The perch is a wood frame with a heavy<br />

gauge mesh wire, which allows the droppings to fall through to the<br />

ground. The trap is wood frame with feather light hanging aluminum<br />

wires (bobs). Available in two sizes. The standard has a 12" x 18"<br />

trap and a 12 1/2" x 18" landing perch. Call for quote on custom size.<br />

Aviary<br />

Because this is meant to be<br />

outside, we suggest you prime<br />

and paint the wood to make it last years and years.<br />

There may be a high shipping charge for the extra<br />

large Aviary due to it's size. All the Aviaries include<br />

a small hook and eye to attach the Aviary to the outside loft wall, one<br />

never knows when a large hawk might land on the Aviary and dislodge<br />

it. The hook is an aid in preventing this. When you want your<br />

birds to have free access to fly outside, just remove the whole aviary.<br />

The small is 18" long x 12 1/2" x 12 1/2" high. The medium is 24"<br />

long x 12 1/2" x 12 1/2" high. The large is 36" x 12 1/2" The extralarge<br />

Aviary is 48" long x 18" x 18" high.<br />

Extra Large Landing Perch<br />

This landing perch is meant for the fancier with a larger<br />

flock. When your birds are outside and flying, on their<br />

return, they need a place to land and then enter the loft. This Extra-<br />

Large landing perch is meant to be used by itself or with the Extra-<br />

Large Aviary. The landing perch has a wire floor that allows pigeon<br />

droppings to fall to the ground under it. Many lofts are eight foot long,<br />

so if you want a landing perch that will go the total length of the loft,<br />

purchase two of these Extra-Large Landing Perches, which are four<br />

feet long, and install them side by side. The landing perch comes with<br />

two supports that hold the perch level and sturdy. The wire used is 1"<br />

x 1/2" which is small enough to allow the pigeons to walk on it with no<br />

problem. The perch is also a good place to have your bath pan, this<br />

allows the splashed water to fall to the ground. When you use a bath<br />

pan in the loft, the floor always gets wet. 48" long, projects out from<br />

the loft 18". The landing perch is framed in white pine, and knowing<br />

it will be exposed to all kinds of weather, we suggest you prime and<br />

paint the wood for added years of use.<br />

#1670 Extra-Large Landing Perch $49.00<br />

Pigeon Trap<br />

We receive many calls<br />

asking if we have a trap<br />

to catch wild pigeons. Used by individuals<br />

trapping to rid an area of unwanted<br />

birds. Heavy duty 16-gauge<br />

welded wire frame. Door on top for easy removal. It works great! 36"<br />

x 18" x 8". Catches them alive!<br />

#343 Pigeon Trap $55.00<br />

Pigeon and Other Bird Trap<br />

A large pigeon trap with some very<br />

unique benefits. There is a large lift<br />

up door, on top, to remove caught birds.<br />

The door measures 10” X 7” and is locked<br />

in position to prevent escape. The strong<br />

bobs are located on each end, and only swing in. There are six hanging<br />

bobs on each end, the total opening where the bobs hang are<br />

8” X 7”. The birds are attracted to the bait and enter the trap but<br />

cannot exit the trap. If possible, place a bird or two in the trap, this<br />

attracts other birds. Add some pigeon feed for bait, or just corn. If the<br />

trap is going to sit all day, add a water drinker that will not tip over.<br />

The wire of the trap is 1” x 1” and plastic coated. This is a large trap<br />

and will catch and hold many birds. 40” Long, 16 1/4” Wide and 12”<br />

High. Used by professional bird trapper’s in Europe for many years.<br />

#3379 Pigeon and Other Bird Trap $79.00<br />

Ketch All Mouse Trap<br />

Automatic, catches up to 15<br />

mice at 1 setting. Rodent’s<br />

instinct to investigate nooks and crannies is the bait.<br />

Once inside, trigger mechanism flips animal into interior<br />

chamber. No more need to leave poison out. Safe and<br />

convenient.<br />

#339 Ketch All Mouse Trap $22.00<br />

It is a good idea, if possible, to move your drinker around<br />

from place to place. Putting in in the same place every time<br />

may create a damp spot and bugs will collect under it.<br />

Horizon Micro-Environments has been manufacturing these high quality mailing boxes for over 26 years.<br />

They are the most well known and highly respected company in their field. Horizon makes post office and<br />

I.A.T.A. approved shipping boxes for birds and nothing else. They are true innovators and continue to improve<br />

and create new products. All boxes include plastic ties.<br />

SHIPPING BOXES<br />

I SHIP HUNDREDS OF PIGEONS EVERY YEAR, and these are the boxes I use,<br />

They are strong, well ventilated and easy to carry. I do tape the bottom edges<br />

before I put the birds in the box. We are so lucky to be able to ship birds thru the<br />

post office. I do not want to upset them by having shavings dust escaping thru<br />

the bottom cracks. I also do not complain if they are supposed to be there in one<br />

day and they take two days. I once had a shipment get lost and it took six days to<br />

get to my customer, would you believe every bird arrived alive! No feed or water<br />

for 6 days, arriving in two is absolutely not a problem.<br />

CARING FOR BIRDS (THE DO'S AND DON'TS)<br />

DO<br />

• Feed and water birds prior to shipping.<br />

• Place litter or bedding in the bottom of the box to collect moisture,<br />

reduce odors, and provide a foothold.<br />

• Call the recipient and give them the tracking number and expected<br />

arrival date.<br />

• Write the shipping address on the box in case shipping label<br />

comes off.<br />

• Add #295 Save-A-Chick to the drinking water 2-3 days before shipping.<br />

DON'T<br />

• Ship injured, ill or birds under unusual stress.<br />

• Do not remove the white breathable membrane from over the vent<br />

holes. The membrane protects your birds from airborne disease,<br />

reduces excitability, stress, and is required by postal regulations.<br />

• Do not ship birds in very hot or very cold weather conditions. It is<br />

hotter in the box and extreme heat can be fatal to your birds.<br />

IF IN DOUBT - DON'T SHIP.<br />

• Do not over pack the box. To many birds in a box can cause<br />

over-heating and stress which can be harmful or fatal.<br />

• Do not ship birds over the weekend or holiday. They may become<br />

stranded.<br />

• DON'T MEDICATE WHEN SHIPPING BIRDS.<br />

#1081 Show Cage #1083 Judging Cage<br />

Collapsible Show Cages<br />

If you are serious about showing your birds, it is very important<br />

that you start training them early. Training means getting them used<br />

to being in a judging pen and the pigeon show cage. Work with them<br />

regularly with a judging stick so that they will not be wild when you<br />

enter them in a show. All wire construction, manufactured with a galvanized<br />

wire alloy. All wires are electrically welded. Judging pens measure<br />

22" x 30" x 27" high. Pigeon show cages are 2 compartments of<br />

15" x 15" x 16" high, 30" total length. Other sizes are available, please<br />

call for a quotation. Because of their size, shipping will be based on<br />

weight plus extra for being oversized.<br />

Imported Show / Judging Cage<br />

Used to train you birds to be comfortable<br />

while going through the show judging process,<br />

which gives the birds a better chance to win by<br />

not flying around during the show and judging process.<br />

You should work with your birds, placing them in the judging cage<br />

and moving them around using a judging stick, just as a judge does.<br />

Handle the birds, placing them in the judging cage, removing them<br />

and handling them just like a judge would. The unique feature of the<br />

imported judging cage is that it includes a floor that allows you to<br />

place the cage anywhere while training the birds to get used to being<br />

judged. If you are having a guest look at your birds, it is great to have<br />

the judging cage set up so that your guest or prospective buyer can<br />

look and handle the birds. The cage is held to the bottom tray by two<br />

springs and the top is held in place by another two springs. The swing<br />

out door makes for easy access to the bird or birds. 24" X 24" x 23<br />

1/2" high. Collapsible for ease storage of taking it to another location.<br />

The bottom tray is galvanized steel and the wire spacing is an inch.<br />

Spanish Style Cage Drinker<br />

Extremely well made and very well designed. The<br />

units come in two sections and come apart for cleaning<br />

and filling. Heavy, commercial grade plastic, will last a<br />

lifetime with minimum care. The drinking ports protrude out<br />

and offer easy access for the birds and also help prevent<br />

debris and droppings from fowling the water. Just about impossible,<br />

because of the design, for birds to roost on top of the drinker. Mainly<br />

used in breeding, isolation or sick bay. I use them and am quite<br />

pleased with them.<br />

Spanish 8 Section Breeder/Hospital/Isolation<br />

Cage Unit<br />

I really like these units and have<br />

found many uses for it. Most importantly, it is a<br />

holding cage when I bring new birds in and want<br />

them quarantined, It sometimes serves as a<br />

breeding unit when I want to breed from a special<br />

pair, it is where I put individual birds when they<br />

are sick and I want to treat them. Also included<br />

are 8 of the #3411 Spanish Cage Feeders, that<br />

fit perfectly on the outside of the cage. The cage<br />

feeders have two divided sections, one for feed<br />

and one for grit. We supply 8 of our #3415 Spanish<br />

Drinkers, they go inside each of the 8 compartments.<br />

The floor of the cages is wire which allows the dropping<br />

to fall through to a removable tray. Each level has a removable tray<br />

that catches the droppings for each level. Each cage unit has a spring<br />

loaded door and a turn piece to lock the door. Each compartment is<br />

21,6 X 22 X 15 1`/2” high. The entire unit is 45 ¼ left to right X 26 1/3<br />

inches front to back and 77” High. The unit comes unassembled, all<br />

you will need is a small wrench. There are four 2 pair compartments<br />

and two ends which attach to the compartments, and because of<br />

the size we cannot ship via UPS, the unit must be picked up at the<br />

store or shipped by truck. If you would like to have it shipped, please<br />

contact us for total shipping cost via truck. If you would like to pick the<br />

unit up on a weekend, arrangements can be made.<br />

#3383 Spanish 8 Compartment Cage Unit $399.00<br />

Double Hanging Breeder Cage<br />

This is ideal for the fancier that lacks floor<br />

space, or has a tough time bending over to observe<br />

or feed and water birds in a breeder unit.<br />

The Double Breeder Cage is big enough to put one pair on each side,<br />

but you can remove the center divider and allow the birds to see each<br />

other and get used to each other before putting them together to<br />

mate. There are occasions when you put two strange birds together<br />

and the cock will beat up the hen because they are not a pair. By allowing<br />

the two birds to get acquainted before getting together, you will<br />

just about remove that possibility. You receive two double cage cups<br />

that will hold feed. A wire floor and a slide out tray, below the wire<br />

floor, to remove droppings. Each side has a spring loaded door to get<br />

access to the birds. 46 1/2" x 17 1/2" Front to Back and 15 3/4" High.<br />

#3423 Breeder/Sick Bay Unit $130.00<br />

Wood Poultry Nest<br />

Many people choose to make their<br />

own chicken nest, but there are<br />

folks like me who do not have the time, tools or ability.<br />

This nest is shipped completely assembled. Unfinished,<br />

quality pine and exterior grade plywood construction. You may<br />

choose to paint, but most use in the plain wood. A removable bottom<br />

for cleaning and a fold up perch to close off the nest when you want<br />

to keep the chickens out. Mount to the wall or place on the floor.<br />

Available in one, two, four and six hole units. All four sizes are 11 1/4"<br />

front to back and the entrance holes are 11 1/4" wide. Special sizes<br />

available, call for quote.<br />

Breeder Units<br />

Reintroduced to the pigeon fanciers after not being<br />

able to get them for the past few years. These units<br />

have so many features, you’ll wonder how you got along without<br />

them. The four level is separated in the middle, by a small section<br />

where the feed and water containers are located. The feed<br />

and drink containers are included. A separate spring loaded door<br />

gives you access to the feeder and drinker, without disturbing<br />

the pigeons. Each level has individual slide out trays. The floors<br />

of the units are plastic coated wire that allows the droppings to<br />

fall thru to the removable tray below. A really nice feature is that<br />

each complete unit has casters on each of the four legs, this allows<br />

the unit to be moved very easily. The complete unit is constructed<br />

with long lasting plastic coated wire, this wire is spaced<br />

close enough to prevent the possibility of a pigeon sticking a<br />

head or wing thru the wire and causing injury. The four level may<br />

serve you as a mating cage, put the hen on one side and the<br />

cock on the other. The cock is prevented from possibly attacking<br />

a hen that is not its mate, leave in the unit for a week or so and<br />

the cock bird will then be placed with the hen. Another popular<br />

use is a breeding cage. Each unit is 35 ¾” X 32 ¾” X 16 ½” high,<br />

this allows plenty of room for the pair to breed in, just add a nest<br />

bowl. Another popular use is a sick bay unit. Every vet or experienced<br />

breeder will suggest that as soon as you notice a sick<br />

bird, remove it from contact with the others thus reducing the<br />

spread of the sickness to the other birds. The units are shipped<br />

disassembled, and are very easy to put together. The two level<br />

unit is shipped in one box and the four level unit is shipped in two<br />

boxes. The units are very well built but very heavy. The two level<br />

unit is 43” tall and the four level unit is 67” tall. A bit pricy but will<br />

last years and years. Please note that the two level unit is two<br />

large compartments not divided.<br />

All American Nest Box, No Front<br />

The nest box will accept a nest<br />

front on 24" X 12". Some folks have<br />

their own nest fronts or have a particular need for<br />

an empty box. I have used just the box without a<br />

front in one of my lofts and am quite satisfied with the results. I place<br />

a clay or heavy nest bowl in one corner of the box and have absolutely<br />

no problems. It is very easy to clean the box as there is nothing<br />

to catch the scraper on. I remove the nest bow and in a matter of<br />

seconds, the box is clean and I put the bowl back in. The box outside<br />

measurements are 16" from to back, 25 1/2" left to right and 12 3/4"<br />

high. I stack them 4 high, and when the breeding season is over, it is<br />

very easy to remove the boxes, as there is no need to attach them to a<br />

wall or to each other. Removing the boxes after breeding season gives<br />

me more room in the loft and I can add perches for the cocks or hens<br />

after I separate them. Custom sizes available.<br />

Simplicity Nest Box<br />

This nest box has always been<br />

very popular, but I was never<br />

quite satisfied with the design. It worked<br />

fine, but the center divider had a tendency<br />

to move. I discussed this problem with John<br />

Raber, our shop manager. John has come<br />

up with a new design. I am quite pleased with it after testing it in my<br />

loft. The divider is very easy to remove when you want to clean the nest<br />

box. The new design now locks the divider in place, and will not move.<br />

The idea of the divider is to allow the pair to have young on one side<br />

and then the second set of eggs is laid on the other side. The size of<br />

the box is such that you may also use a nest front such as our #115 or<br />

#120. 25 1/2" x 16" x 12 3/4" high. Custom sizes available.<br />

Divider And Drawer For All<br />

American Nest Box<br />

Many fanciers build their own nest<br />

boxes, but may not have the tools to build a<br />

tray like the one we supply with our Simplicity<br />

Nest Box. The tray is made to slide into the bottom of a nest box, the<br />

same size as our #1016 Simplicity Nest Box. The tray slides right into<br />

the bottom of a box that is 24" from left to right and 16" deep. It has<br />

a 4' board in the front, from left to right and a divider as part of the<br />

tray, to create a double nesting box. Make your own box and save<br />

lots of money, especially on shipping you would pay on the entire box.<br />

Front as seen on the previous page, #147-#150. These Dividers are<br />

great, when babies get to be 2-3 weeks old, you may want to move<br />

the babies to the other side of the Nest Box, and the clean out where<br />

the young were, in preparation of the parents laying again. The divider<br />

slides out of the box for cleaning. We offer just the Divider for those<br />

who may wish to build their own Nest Box, and purchase just the Divider.<br />

Many fanciers build their own<br />

Nest Boxes but may not have<br />

the tools or skill to create the Simplicity<br />

Divider for the Large Nest Box. The<br />

Divider slides right into our Large Nest<br />

Box. The Simplicity Divider creates a<br />

separate nesting area for one pair. Young can be on one side, and<br />

when the parents are ready to lay again, move the babies to the other<br />

side, keeping the eggs from getting soiled or accidently broken.<br />

Should you wish to use a nest front with the divider, it is built to also<br />

accept the front. By making your own box, you save money by building<br />

itself and also the shipping charges to ship a large box. CUSTOM<br />

Ultimate Nest Box - This<br />

Ultimate Nest Box has so<br />

many features. I hope I<br />

don't forget to list them all. It is all<br />

heavy duty, beige plastic which can<br />

be cleaned easily. The birds stand<br />

on a grated floor and the droppings<br />

fall through to a drawer which slides out for cleaning. Each unit<br />

has a drop down door for the birds to enter and locks the birds<br />

should you have the need. The Ultimate Nest Box may be used<br />

as two separate nest boxes using the unique triple track divider.<br />

You can have it open so one pair claims both sides, you can<br />

slide a partition that allows the birds to see each other (this is for<br />

racing homer fanciers who fly the windowhood system), or the<br />

partition allows you to set up the two sides so one pair can not<br />

see the other pair. Each box has vent grills on the sides and the<br />

rear. The front allows you to open each side for complete access.<br />

The Ultimate Nest Box includes a stack and lock system<br />

and using this system you can stack them one on top another<br />

and also lock them together on the sides. You can lock them all<br />

together and have a wall of nest boxes. Each Ultimate Nest Box<br />

includes a set of rollers that allow you to roll a single stack or the<br />

entire wall backward and forward for ease in cleaning around the<br />

units. Won't rust like metal. Won't rot like wood. Each individual<br />

Ultimate Nest Box is 16.14" Deep x 23" Long x 17.13" High.<br />

drinker for a cage. Cases where you have to<br />

be away for a few days or more, your cage is large and<br />

etc. The unique design of the Spanish large Cage Drinker<br />

allows you to slip the base through the wires and lock it<br />

in place. It has a bottom screw off lid should you want to<br />

remove the drinker that still has water in it, this prevents spillage. The<br />

bottle also slips off the base for easy filling as well as being opaque<br />

which allows you to see the level of water. The base that holds the<br />

water is a corrosive resistant aluminum. Holds a bit over two quarts.<br />

Great for pigeons, poultry and cage birds.<br />

my own pigeons, after the breeding season I soak<br />

them in water with bleach in it for 24 hours and when I remove them<br />

they are quite clean and just need wiped and put away for next breeding<br />

TIPS:<br />

• Did you know it is possible for pigeons to change from one sex to<br />

another - but this happens very rarely, and the change can only be<br />

from female to male.<br />

• Always follow a course of medications with a probiotic.<br />

• If you are using medications, follow the directions precisely. If you do<br />

not believe this is necessary, try tasting your food after preparing with<br />

twice as much salt then directions call for.<br />

Dandy Nest Bowls<br />

The Dandy Nest Bowls are imported from Belgium<br />

and are second in popularity only to the Clay Bowls.<br />

The Dandy Nest Bowls are a paper mache with a<br />

bit of a rougher surface which is a real benefit. The<br />

Sanitary nest bowls which we have discontinued, have a very smooth<br />

surface, and on occasion, the baby’s legs would slip out to the side,<br />

this is called splayed legs, and because the babies grow so fast, the<br />

splayed leg would be permanent and the baby would never be able to<br />

walk. The rough surface helps prevent splayed legs from happening.<br />

The Dandy Nest Bowl is just a bit larger so it works with just about<br />

all breeds, including the larger ones. Each bowl has large vent holes<br />

on the sides to help keep the bowls dry. 9” across the top and 11”<br />

across the bottom. 2” high.<br />

Lifetime Heavy Nest Bowls<br />

The clay nest bowl has always been a great seller,<br />

because the fancier wanted a nest bowl that was<br />

heavy enough to prevent the pair or young from<br />

pushing it around. The big disadvantage of the clay bowl was that it<br />

broke very easily. The Heavy Nest Bowl solves both of the issues with<br />

a clay nest bowl, it is virtually impossible to break and is very heavy to<br />

prevent the bowl from moving. It is also very easy to clean It is available<br />

in the standard 9" in diameter or the 10 1/2" large breed size.<br />

Heavy duty plastic. Never buy another nest bowl!<br />

cold climates and it is not unusual to lose a<br />

few young, in the nest, because of the cold.<br />

Designed especially for <strong>Foy's</strong>, the Heated Nest Bowl may be the answer<br />

to breeding in cold climates. Yes, these bowls are expensive, but<br />

at what price would you put on the ability to raise young from a special<br />

pair or two, much earlier than normal. Designed around our Heavy<br />

Nest Bowl, the Heated Nest Bowl will not move around and keeps the<br />

young warm.The heat is regulated so that it does not get too warm.<br />

Felt Nest Pads for Pigeons<br />

Has always been the most popular nest<br />

pad <strong>Foy's</strong> offers. Soft felt that helps retain<br />

the body heat of the parents offer to the eggs and<br />

young. The felt creates an easy grip for the feed of<br />

the fast growing babies. The grip is very important<br />

as the babies grow very fast and as they try to stand, a grip is important,<br />

because if it is a slippery surface under them, their legs will slide<br />

out from under them and in a matter of 24 hours, the legs will slide<br />

out and they will grow in this position, It is very difficult to try to push<br />

the legs back under the babies, usually not possible. We offer the felt<br />

pads in three sizes to best fit the breeds you have.<br />

Pigeon Nesting Eggs<br />

There are times when you want to start the laying<br />

process by offering false eggs as a suggestion<br />

or promotion of the idea of laying. There are also<br />

times you don't want your birds to raise any more<br />

young, so you simply replace their eggs with<br />

false eggs and they will set them. The plastic<br />

False Eggs<br />

False eggs are used for a number<br />

of purposes. Pigeon fanciers use<br />

them when they want to stop raising youngsters. They<br />

remove the real eggs and replace them with the false<br />

pigeon eggs. Pigeons do not know the difference and will sit on these<br />

false eggs until past the normal hatching date. Pigeon fanciers also<br />

will place under the pigeon when the hen stays in the nest bowl as<br />

though they have eggs but in fact they have not laid. It is thought that if<br />

you put false eggs under the pair, they will sit on them until the hatching<br />

time and this may start the regular cycle of laying eggs. Chicken<br />

fanciers may not want to raise any more peeps and when a hen goes<br />

broody and will not leave the nest, the eggs are removed and replace<br />

with false eggs. Cage bird fanciers use them for the same reasons.<br />

Some fanciers like the wood and others prefer the plastic, where possible,<br />

we offer both. The cage bird eggs are all available in plastic only.<br />

Install perches, when at all possible, all on one wall, the droppings are easier<br />

to clean up because most are concentrated under the perches. Perches,<br />

in most cases are 11-12 inches apart top to bottom and side by side. When<br />

you get to a corner, keep the perch 18” away from the walls, many times,<br />

pigeons will build a nest in a corner and by keeping the nest away from the<br />

corner, the eggs will not have droppings falling on the nest.<br />

love by using Foy’s Bath Salts in the bath water. Bath<br />

salts will clean the feathers and help rid the birds of<br />

parasites. Add a heaping tablespoon to 3 or 4 gallons<br />

of bath water. For silky, smooth feathers. Safe if the<br />

birds drink.<br />

it also allows you to keep their feathers clean<br />

by placing the Bath Tub into the aviary or on<br />

the loft floor. By adding pigeon bath salts,<br />

you also will help rid the pigeons of parasites and deep clean the<br />

birds. The Super-Size pigeon bath tub, is roomy enough to allow as<br />

Large Bath Pan with Drain<br />

Plug<br />

The Large Bath Pan is made<br />

of very sturdy plastic and has the extra<br />

benefit of having a drain plug. When<br />

you fill a bath pan, it is easy, but when<br />

you want to throw the bath water out,<br />

it is rather heavy. With this pan, pull the<br />

plug and it drains out. Pigeons just love<br />

baths and willingly jump right in, no matter the weather, even on a<br />

sunny day in the winter. Add pigeon bath salts and your birds are<br />

cleaning their feathers and helping to eliminate parasites as well. This<br />

Large Bath Tub is 8” deep, so you add water to about 4” deep and<br />

let them enjoy.<br />

perch that is very easy to install to any wall surface.<br />

very useful in a loft on small doves, All one piece in an attractive beige<br />

color, the perch rod is 2 1/2" long and grooved for better gripping. The<br />

inverted V under the perch rod also extends out 2 1/2" and is meant<br />

to catch the droppings. 4 1/2" wide and 6" high, the perch also has<br />

another unique feature, they will lock together when stacked one on<br />

I believe we offer the largest selection of perches and there is a reason for this. Choosing the correct perch is an individual decision as there are different situations<br />

for each loft. Some choices will depend on space available, breed of pigeon, special needs and what the perch is made of. I do not believe it is a must to protect the<br />

bird below as droppings do not stick to a healthy bird. The only time this may be a factor is when you have a pair that insists on having a nest in the corner on the<br />

floor. Scraping the perches regularly is no big deal, but for someone like me, who has a lot of pigeons, I am always looking for a perch that cuts down on scraping.<br />

I have used just about every design of perch and because I want to limit my perch scraping time my two favorites are the Space Saver Perch and the Block Perch.<br />

For Racing Homers and Rollers, and they fill my needs. We suggest all perches be spaced 11"-12” from side to side and 11"-12” from above and below, with the<br />

exception of some very small of very large breeds. If you have a special size or design need, please contact us for a quote.<br />

Clip On V Perch<br />

A unique click on and off system. Screw<br />

the clip into position on the wall. The<br />

perch may now be clicked into place<br />

and if desired, clicked back on at any time. I find<br />

them handy because I initially install the maximum<br />

number of clips to the wall, and then, if the number of pigeons is<br />

reduced, all I have to do is remove the perch only, the clip remains in<br />

place. 5 ½” high and project out 4 ½”. Made in Foy’s own wood shop.<br />

Clip on Block Perch<br />

A simple idea that really works well. Attach<br />

the clip to the wall and click the<br />

perch on. Click on/off as needed. If you use nest<br />

fronts and you close the door during the nonbreeding<br />

season, attach a clip to the back of the<br />

nest front door and when the door is closed, click<br />

on the perch. Easy to install, just two screws. The perch is 6"<br />

long, meaning you have a very small area to clean. 1" x 6" Long.<br />

Space Saver Perch<br />

Originally designed by a young Amish<br />

boy who sent it to see if I would be interested<br />

in selling them. Made with knot free poplar wood<br />

for many years of use. I really like these and use them<br />

in a number of my lofts, including the loft with my<br />

white racing homers. Cuts down on perch scraping<br />

to almost nothing. Space 10” to 12” apart, up and down and side<br />

by side. ¾” X ¾” and projects out 6”. Made in Foy’s own work shop.<br />

Euro V Perch<br />

The Euro V Perch may be used<br />

as a standard V perch. Attach<br />

the bracket to the loft wall using 4 small<br />

screws. Attach the perch clip to the end<br />

of the wood, using the pre drilled 4 holes<br />

and the four screws supplied with the<br />

perch. Slip the perch into the wall clip<br />

and you have a V perch that is secure<br />

and will not move. The perch may also<br />

used as a block perch, similar to our #1040 Block Perch. The wood<br />

that the pigeons roost on is a solid piece of hard wood and will not<br />

split or crack over time. The two sturdy plastic pieces that form the<br />

V, are a top quality plastic, meant to stand up to years of use and<br />

unaffected by extreme weather. The Perch measure 9 ½” between<br />

the V and projects out 4 ½”. Easy to clean and protects the birds<br />

perched below.<br />

<strong>Foy's</strong> Heavy Duty Wood Perch<br />

This perch, as with most of our wood<br />

products, is made in our wood shop. The<br />

idea for the perch came from John Raber, our<br />

master carpenter. No plywood in the construction,<br />

it is all yellow pine, and meant for years and<br />

years of service. You may want to consider painting<br />

them with a good gloss paint, which will make<br />

it even easier to keep clean. Absolutely no knots and sanded for a fine<br />

finish. The wood for the sides is 3/8” thick, 2 or 3 times thicker than<br />

most other V perches. The wood where the bird perches is 2” wide<br />

and 5 ½” front to back, lots of room for most all breeds. The back<br />

brace and mounting bracket is of the same thickness as the sides<br />

and includes two pre-drilled mounting holes. Made in Foy’s own wood<br />

shop. CUSTOM SIZES AVAILABLE, CALL FOR A QUOTE.<br />

Deluxe Heart Basket<br />

Made in America and one of<br />

the up-most quality. John Raber,<br />

our finish carpenter, designed this himself<br />

and having never built one, he looked<br />

on it as a real challenge. The handles are<br />

large to give balance when carrying. The<br />

weave is a full 3/4" high and allows for lots<br />

of ventilation. To reduce the possibility of<br />

malfunctioning hardware, we have eliminated any type of locking device.<br />

Place the two handles in the up position and use a zip tie to lock<br />

them. Curious kids or adults will be unable to "sneak a peak" and accidentally<br />

release the birds. The small Deluxe Heart Basket measures<br />

13" x 10" x 8 1/2" high. The large Deluxe Heart Basket measures 18"<br />

x 14 1/2" x 10" high. We offer this beautiful addition to your business<br />

in a natural color, but you only need a can of spray paint to paint it the<br />

color of your choice. Add a brass plate with your name or loft name<br />

and phone number for an additional $7.00.<br />

1-2 birds and the large which is 18" x 14 1/2" x 10" high is meant for<br />

Remote Release Basket<br />

I have viewed videos and attended<br />

ceremonies where a remote<br />

release basket was used. It was<br />

my opinion that the remote release was<br />

a good idea, but the ones I observed<br />

left room both in appearance and in<br />

function. I spoke to a good friend who<br />

is a genius when it comes to creating<br />

a product from an idea. Carl designed a release basket with a floor<br />

that dropped out. If you have ever attended a show in Orlando, which<br />

features a white bird release from the rafters of the arena. Carl is also<br />

the designer and creator of our "Event Release Basket" as well as<br />

our Ceremonial Release Basket, both on pages 91 & 92. Well you<br />

get the idea if you want something special, well made and very functional,<br />

I call Carl. The Remote Release Basket is battery operated and<br />

features a fully painted sturdy wood frame that will give you years of<br />

service. The unit has a top loading door. Push the button while you're<br />

positioned many feet away, and away the birds go. The 1" spring of<br />

the hard wood dowels allows the curious guests to observe the birds,<br />

but ensures their safety by not allowing their heads to push through.<br />

The floor includes a removable raised wired floor grate that keeps the<br />

birds clean. Another unique feature is the double locking system.<br />

When the lock is in the rear position, the top loading door and the front<br />

release door are securely locked and will not open even if it is tipped<br />

over. The receiver and trigger mechanism are in a module which has<br />

an on and off switch to conserve battery strength. We offer the Remote<br />

Release Basket in 18 x 16 x 10" high for 10 birds and 36 x 16 x<br />

10" high for 20 birds. Both baskets are available in white or black and<br />

are shipped complete and also include two remote key chain remote<br />

transmitters. Add a brass plate with your name or loft name and<br />

phone number for an additional $7.00. Works up to 100 feet.<br />

Wedding Gift Basket<br />

Another exclusive<br />

product by our craftsman<br />

at <strong>Foy's</strong>. Place this beautiful<br />

cage on your table for your guest<br />

to deposit the wedding cards. A<br />

large, brass letter drop that is spring<br />

loaded and is always in the closed position for security. You place 1<br />

or 2 doves in the upper cage through the access door which comes<br />

with a keyed lock to prevent anyone from trying<br />

to handle or release the doves. The entire<br />

cage lifts off and has its own floor to contain<br />

the doves when you remove the cage. Brass<br />

colored hardware and corner protectors. When<br />

you remove the cage, access to the cards is<br />

accomplished by using a key which offers additional<br />

security. Bottom rubber bumpers at each<br />

corner, 18" wide x 16" front to back, 26" high.<br />

Event Release Basket<br />

The white dove (white racing<br />

homers) release business continues<br />

to grow and it may be the opportunity for<br />

you to earn the extra income you are looking for.<br />

The Funeral Release Basket is designed to be<br />

used at a funeral and in many cases, the box<br />

is left with the funeral director who releases the<br />

birds at the cemetery. The funeral director is instructed<br />

how to use the unit, it takes 2-3 minutes to learn. This custom<br />

made box features a divided bottom section which holds three birds<br />

and are released first. The top section holds one bird which is released<br />

a few moments after the first three. The box is designed to keep the<br />

birds quiet, which is very important at a funeral. The birds are placed<br />

in the box from the rear, facing forward in preparation for release. The<br />

two knobs at the top are pulled one at a time to release<br />

the birds in proper sequence. Traditional black, gray<br />

wire mesh and hardwood trim. Approximate size is 17"<br />

x 17" x 13" high. The release of the first two birds signifies<br />

the trinity and when released, they naturally circle.<br />

The last single bird released represents the deceased,<br />

which on release, joins the first three and after circling,<br />

they will fly away. Another use would be using at weddings or wedding<br />

receptions. Release two birds representing the couple and then the<br />

third bird which represents love. Add a brass plate with your name or<br />

loft name and phone number for an additional $7.00. Made in one of<br />

our contractors wood shop, top quality throughout.<br />

"White Pigeons: The Color of Money"<br />

When I wrote this booklet, I wrote it for the folks<br />

getting into the white dove release business. I<br />

now realize that the book does fill that need, but it is also a<br />

good booklet for those with little information about keeping<br />

pigeons. I guess another good title for the book would<br />

have been, Pigeons for Dummies. The information is very<br />

basic and if you are an experience pigeon keeper, but not in the dove<br />

release business, you probably don’t need this basic information. The<br />

WHITE BIRD RELEASE business is growing in leaps and bounds,<br />

and is an excellent way to add some extra income or a lot of extra income.<br />

If you are retired, it might add a bit of income to your retirement<br />

income. Chapters in clue;” Where Do I Start?”, “The New Building”,<br />

“Loft Maintenance”, “Feed and Feeding”, “Health and Management”,<br />

“Breeding, “Training “and “Advertising”. Having written the booklet, I<br />

know that I could not cover everything. If you have pigeons and have<br />

unanswered questions, please contact Foy’s at 724-843-6889 and ask<br />

for Jerry, if I am not there, they will give you my home phone number.<br />

Rich’s End Release<br />

Basket<br />

Rich Dworek, a nationally<br />

known pigeon flyer designed this basket<br />

to solve a problem he has always struggled<br />

with. Rich raises and trains quite a<br />

few birds and it was a real chore to catch<br />

every bird in the morning. This solved his<br />

problem! Rich trains the young birds from the very beginning to enter<br />

the baskets themselves by putting their daily feed ration in one<br />

of these baskets. The "Rich" basket has a sliding door on each<br />

end and once the birds know that their feed is in the basket, all he<br />

does is line the baskets up, end to end. When one basket is full<br />

of birds, he drops the doors on the full one, installs a door on the<br />

Levi's Basket<br />

I attended the National<br />

Poultry Show in Columbus,<br />

Ohio and noticed a basket that many exhibitors<br />

were using. I brought one of them<br />

home and had John, our Amish craftsman<br />

make one with what we feel are a few<br />

small improvements. This basket is ideal<br />

for poultry, but it is also ideal for some of<br />

the larger, tall breeds of pigeons. Available in 4, 5, or 6 bird baskets.<br />

Each compartment is 5" wide x 12 3/4" x 11 1/2" high. Completely<br />

sanded to eliminate sharp edges and each compartment has 3/8"<br />

dowels in the front, 5 1/2" high. Each compartment has a sliding door<br />

and all may be locked using the 1/4" dowel. All 3 sizes are 13" high<br />

and 14 3/4" front to back. The 4 bird is 26" long, the 5 bird is 32" long<br />

and the 6 bird is 38" long. A beautiful, Amish made basket in natural<br />

wood. You may want to stain one and cover with Polyurethane for a<br />

gorgeous basket. Add a brass plate with your name or loft name and<br />

phone number for an additional $7.00.<br />

Moses' Basket<br />

This basket is offered<br />

based on inquiries to<br />

the availability of a basket that will<br />

accommodate larger breeds. The<br />

Mose's basket is designed exactly<br />

like Levi's Basket with the exception<br />

of the width of the compartments.<br />

Each compartment is a full 6 inches.<br />

They are made in our own shop and crafted by the Amish man, John<br />

Raber, who manufactures all of our wood products. Top quality, sanded<br />

for quality and designed for the specific need of large bird breeder.<br />

Read the description of Levi's Basket for all the information you might<br />

need, and the measurement's are the same except the width of the<br />

compartments, which makes the Mose's Baskets a few inches longer.<br />

Add a brass plate with your name, or the loft name and phone number<br />

for an additional $7.00. The 4 bird is 13 1/4" high X 14 3/4" front to<br />

back and 30" left to right. The 5 bird is the same as the 4 bird except<br />

it is 37" long and the 6 bird is 44" long.<br />

gussets for superior strength. Top loading<br />

door and a drop down release door. A unique<br />

feature is a rear drop down door to allow the<br />

birds to eat and drink using coop cups attached to the doweled access.<br />

Each basket is trimmed with beautiful oak trim. We use lightweight,<br />

strong nylon mesh covering which allows excellent ventilation.<br />

Samantha's Premium Basket<br />

Factory precise and a real quality<br />

basket. Quality features<br />

include a bumper on the bottom, at<br />

the corners. These bumpers will not<br />

scratch a surface and they keep the<br />

basket up from the floor. Corner protectors<br />

which add to the overall attractiveness<br />

of the basket, as well as<br />

added strength. The corner protectors<br />

are on the top corners as well as<br />

the bottom corners. Large vent holes on three sides that offer the<br />

pigeons lots of air circulation. The release door in the front is hinged<br />

and includes a vent hole that also serves as a finger hole which may<br />

be used to drop the door down , if needed. The heavy duty carrying<br />

handle folds down. Top dowels are 3/8”, larger than most other wood<br />

baskets. To place pigeons to the basket, the door on the top opens<br />

easily due to the steel hinge and folds across the center of the basket,<br />

unlike all other baskets that swing up length ways. The door is locked<br />

in place when closed, using an oversized plastic turn button. The center<br />

support of the basket is 1 ¾” wide for added strength, as all the<br />

weight with the pigeons in the basket, takes the brunt of this weight<br />

and it needs the extra width. The wood basket is fine as it is, but we<br />

suggest you paint it to protect the wood and added beauty. Varnishing<br />

the basket makes it a real gem.<br />

Alena’s Basket<br />

A unique, handy basket for when you<br />

want to carry just a few birds or perhaps<br />

as a racing pigeon fancier, you want to<br />

train just a few birds. The basket is 16 3/4"<br />

x 16 3/4" and is 9 1/2" high. The sides are a<br />

mesh material which offers nearly 100% ventilation<br />

as well as being strong and tear resistant. A drop-down door<br />

allows you to release all the birds at the same time. The top is doweled<br />

and includes a flip-top door to allow you to load the basket or<br />

if in the case of training your racers, you can release one at a time.<br />

Four bottom rubber buttons to help protect surfaces from scratching<br />

and the carrying handle folds down. Holds 6 to 8 birds. Add a brass<br />

BASKETS - When purchasing a basket that is wood, or wood framed, I<br />

strongly suggest you paint the wood, or better yet, stain it. Most of the<br />

wood used to construct baskets is a pine, and this type of wood is not<br />

meant to be exposed to the rain and sun. Painting or staining shows<br />

pride in your basket, and it so much easier to paint or stain brand new<br />

baskets. If your current basket is looking a bit ratty, you may want to<br />

consider refurbishing it. We offer metal turn buttons for the drop down<br />

doors, new plastic buttons for the lift up wood doors, new heavy duty<br />

fold down handles and all new canvas in different colors and if the<br />

sizes offered do not match your basket, contact us and we will make<br />

a piece to fit your needs. Adding a new brass name plate also dresses<br />

up the basket and leaves no doubt as to who owns the basket.<br />

P.M. Heavy Duty Aluminum Baskets<br />

The P.M. Baskets are exclusive at Foy’s and you’ll find no better.<br />

Each basket has dividers that keep each bird in an individual<br />

compartment. The aluminum used to construct these baskets,<br />

is much heavier than others on the market, this extra strength reduces<br />

the possibility of dents. It is very important that each bird be offered<br />

maximum ventilation, each compartment has two round holes in the<br />

front, and the design below each circle and also in the rear of each<br />

compartment serve as not only an attractive design, they are also vent<br />

holes. Each end has three vent holes which allows cross ventilation.<br />

The individual dividers in each basket are easily removed to offer wider<br />

sections to allow for the wider needs of breeds such as Fantails and<br />

muffed breeds. Each compartment is 4 5/8th inch wide, and each<br />

have a flexible, strong plastic top that lifts up to add or remove each<br />

bird, one at a time. Bumpers are at the bottom of each corner to<br />

prevent scratching the surface you place the basket on. Fold down<br />

handles that have extra metal braces that add extra strength. The<br />

top of the baskets is designed with a simulated dark wood grain..<br />

The baskets are used to take birds to a show, widowhood racing and<br />

transporting birds, excepted by most airlines. Add an identification<br />

brass plate to identify you as the basket owner, #483 $7.00. Each<br />

basket is 8 ½” high and the double decker is 17 ½” high. They are all<br />

11 ½” front to back. A basket you’ll be proud to own. COST MORE-<br />

Ball Drinker with Legs<br />

A handy plastic drinker with a metal carrying<br />

handle. The legs keep it off the floor which<br />

allows air to flow under the drinker and keeps the<br />

area under the drinker dry. Warm, damp floors<br />

invite disease. This drinker helps to prevent this<br />

situation. Being a bit higher off the floor also helps<br />

keep it clean. Translucent plastic allows you to see the water level.<br />

Spanish Style Cage Drinker<br />

Extremely well made and very well designed.<br />

The units come in two sections and<br />

come apart for cleaning and filling. Heavy, commercial<br />

grade plastic, will last a lifetime with minimum<br />

care. The drinking ports protrude out and offer easy<br />

access for the birds and also help prevent debris and droppings from<br />

fowling the water. Just about impossible, because of the design, for<br />

birds to roost on top of the drinker. Mainly used in breeding, isolation<br />

or sick bay. I use them and am quite pleased with them.<br />

cutting off the lip at the mouth of the top. The 2 gallon is<br />

10 1/4" wide and 16 1/2" high. The 3 gallon is 10 1/4"<br />

Spanish Aluminum Drinker<br />

The Spanish Aluminum Drinker is made<br />

from quality, long lasting brushed aluminum.<br />

The advantage to aluminum drinker is that it<br />

will not corrode like galvanized drinkers will. Medications<br />

just eat up the galvanized drinkers over time,<br />

aluminum does not. Meant as a poultry drinker, but<br />

may also be used for pigeons. Very easy to clean<br />

and holds 1 ½ gallons of water. 11 ½” high and 11” wide at the base.<br />

three liter (101 ounces) is meant for cages<br />

with a number of pigeons or a large chicken or two. The<br />

Large Cage Drinker goes inside the cage and stands on<br />

its own, but also has a metal attachment with clip to clip<br />

on the cage wire to hold in place. The drinker is also<br />

handy if you need to leave for a few days and you need<br />

a larger amount of water available to the birds in a cage.<br />

Drinker / Feeder Shelf<br />

Many people comment that they can not<br />

keep the drinking water clean. I use these<br />

myself and they really work well. As I mentioned in<br />

one of my TIPS, I suggested you move the water<br />

drinkers around so that you do not have wet spots if it were always<br />

in the same spot. This shelf solves the problem. I also like them, because<br />

it is one less thing I have to move when scraping the floor.<br />

This handy, Amish made shelf will come close to keeping the water<br />

sparkling clean. Attach it to the wall and if you are not using it, it will<br />

fold down against the wall. Wood frame with a galvanized wire base.<br />

Sit your water on one and feeder on the other. Available in two sizes.<br />

The smaller one has a platform 15 3/4" x 15 3/4" and the larger one is<br />

meant to hold a drinker and possibly a grit feeder or pick pots. Measures<br />

31 1/2" L x 15 3/4". What a great idea!<br />

it all in less than a half hour.<br />

Plastic Crock For Feed Or Water<br />

Crocks are easy to<br />

clean and have no<br />

reaction to hard water, medications,<br />

or vitamins, etc. I have<br />

used the large crock myself for<br />

many years. I like them because<br />

they hold exactly one gallon<br />

which means when I add something<br />

to the water, it is easy because I don't have to measure out a<br />

gallon. I do not use a heater in the winter. I go out in the morning,<br />

pick up the frozen one and hit it against a block and the ice pops<br />

out. I replace it with the one I had washed the day before. The<br />

small is 8" x 2 1/2" deep and the large is 11 1/2" x 3 1/2" deep.<br />

Thermostatic Heater<br />

With the cost of electricity so high,<br />

you should consider this money saver<br />

which operates only when you need it. Designed<br />

for the metal double wall drinkers including our hood<br />

drinkers. Also may be used with our P.M. Drinkers.<br />

Automatically turns itself on when temperature<br />

drops below 38˚ and protects in temperatures as low as 10˚F. Includes<br />

a grounded plug and a 8' cord. 16" wide x 4" high. 125 watts<br />

#296 Thermostatic Heater $62.00<br />

Can Heater<br />

Use under your metal drinker to<br />

prevent freezing. 9" in diameter x 5<br />

3/4" high. This item will require your putting it under a<br />

platform as it may be too high for most breeds to drink<br />

from. Make your own platform, or place a brick or 2x4<br />

next to it for pigeons to stand on while they drink. This heater uses<br />

40 watt light bulbs.<br />

#294 Can Heater $33.00<br />

Replacement Bulb Base<br />

Over the years we have had request<br />

for the bulb base for the #294 Electric<br />

Drinker Heater.<br />

#292 Replacement Bulb Base $8.00<br />

Metal Drinker Platform<br />

This sturdy galvanized<br />

platform serves 2 purposes.<br />

It serves as a platform for you to place your<br />

heater under and it also helps keep your water<br />

clean by keeping the fountain almost 6" off the<br />

floor, thus allowing less debris to blow in. The<br />

hole is off center, hence you would not be able to use the twin duplex<br />

fountains. Measures 16" x 11 1/2" x 5 3/4". Use with our #294 heater.<br />

#291 Metal Drinker Platform $12.00<br />

Our heavy duty plastic round heater that is great in cold climates. It<br />

is a continuous heater that stays on all the time, regardless of the<br />

outside temperature. Each unit has a small red light that goes on<br />

when it is plugged in and in this way, if for some reason your unit is<br />

not working or the power is off, you know at a glance. They are 1 1/4"<br />

high and come with a 6' cord and two prong plug. Good for just about<br />

any drinker, from a gallon to 2.5 gallons. Should you like to control<br />

the heat, we would suggest a Thermo Cube-Cold Weather double<br />

plug. The #2188 goes on when the temperature drops to 20 degrees<br />

and shuts off when the temperature goes to 30 degrees and above.<br />

The maximum temperature that the Heavy Duty Heaters will reach is<br />

between 75 degrees and 86 degrees. The molded projection of the<br />

Float Valve<br />

Nothing last forever and the<br />

float valve is for some of our<br />

automatic drinkers, and do wear out. There are<br />

two styles, flat and round. There are also fanciers<br />

who wish to build their own automatic drinkers<br />

and would need a float valve that turns the<br />

water on and off. As the water level is lowered, the valve allows more<br />

water to come in.<br />

drinker. May also be used on gravity supply systems.<br />

want to install your supply line to the drinker, install the<br />

Connector Line which has a small protrusion that slips<br />

into the hole you drilled in the water supply line, and turn the two<br />

screws to tighten it. Meant for use with our #2224 Drinker hose.<br />

Fanciers have the mistaken idea that grit should be removed when<br />

using all antibiotics. This is not always the case. Remove the grit if<br />

Wood Cafeteria Feeder<br />

We make these ourselves with the<br />

busy pigeon fancier in mind. All<br />

quality, exterior plywood construction. The top comes off<br />

for easy filling of up to 50 lbs. of feed. Two sided access<br />

with five 1 3/4" diameter holes for feeding 5 to 10 birds<br />

at the same time. You’ll find that you waste very little feed as the birds<br />

eat only when they are hungry and must eat what is in front of them.<br />

Slanted inside to flow the feed to the holes. 13 5/8" wide x 12 1/2"<br />

deep x 19" high. Comes with a wood cover for each side. If the birds<br />

are wasting feed, I cover the holes and make them eat scattered feed.<br />

#151 Large Cafeteria Feeder $68.00<br />

Plastic Feeder with Rollbar<br />

A high quality feeder that is easy to fill<br />

and has a moving roll bar to prevent<br />

the birds from roosting on it. Small "feet" on the bottom<br />

to help keep it up off the floor. Each of the four lengths is 5 1/2"<br />

high and the side rail is 1 3/4"high to hold a lot of feed or grit.<br />

USA Roll Bar<br />

- Made in the USA. Sometimes<br />

old ideas work as well or better<br />

than new ideas. The birds can’t perch on the anti-perch<br />

roll bar. Easy to clean. Thirty openings 23 14” X 6 ½” X 9 ¼” High.<br />

Grit Feeder with Divider<br />

Feed/Grit Feeder with snap on top. 8” X 9” high.<br />

#3460 3 Compartment Feeder $7.00<br />

Pick Pot Feeder<br />

Many fanciers would like to reuse<br />

the empty pick pots. This feeder<br />

will hold 3 pick pots. Fill them with grit, salt, Vitamineral,<br />

grains or any item you want your birds to have access<br />

to. All wood construction with access all around.<br />

Shipped without pick pots. Measures 14 1/8" long x 7 5/8" high x 6<br />

1/4" wide. Made in our Amish workshop, custom sizes available.<br />

#153 Pick Pot Feeder $20.00<br />

P.M Antibacterial Feeder<br />

Factory made and completely<br />

sanded for a smooth<br />

surface. What makes this feeder unique is<br />

the plastic tray insert. The plastic insert is stain resistant and removable<br />

for easy washing. The grit, because of the salts and minerals, has a<br />

tendency to dry out the wood prematurely. The plastic liner protects<br />

the wood. Another unique feature of this feeder is that they are treated<br />

with an antibacterial agent, which helps reduce the possibility of a bacterial<br />

disease. The bottom includes small feet that keep it a bit off<br />

the floor to alter air flow. Dampness tends to collect under feeders and<br />

drinkers, and dampness is one of the worst things one can have in a<br />

loft. The dowels are 3/8" hardwood and spaced to allow each bird easy<br />

access. I like the flat roof, which is hinged. It is so easy and quick to<br />

clean. Many feeders with the gabled roofs, have two surfaces to clean.<br />

We offer three sizes to fit most needs, and each of the three are 7 1/2"<br />

high and 7" wide. The longer feeders may require extra postage due<br />

to their length.<br />

Stay Clean Drinker<br />

All plastic drinker/feeder will also hold grit.<br />

Four hole access with clear plastic windows<br />

contamination.<br />

Small Utility Feeder<br />

Just perfect in an individual pen or in your<br />

loft to hold smaller amounts of grit, minerals,<br />

charcoal or special treats for your birds. All-plastic<br />

construction. 10" high X 7 1/2" wide.<br />

#1461 Small Utility Feeder $7.00<br />

Spanish Feeder/Drinker -<br />

12 Hole<br />

Exceptionally well made of<br />

heavy plastic. Removable top for cleaning,<br />

great for feed or water. The design virtually<br />

eliminates the feed being tossed out while<br />

eating and helps reduce water being contaminated. The bottom is V<br />

shaped to push the feed to the center. Each hole is 2” in diameter. 20”<br />

long and 4 ¼” high.<br />

#3398 Spanish Feeder/Drinker (12 Hole) $9.00<br />

Plastic Feeder with Guard<br />

A handy all plastic feeder used for grit or feed. The all<br />

plastic construction means it will resist all the salts in<br />

grit and because it is plastic, it will not rust or corrode.<br />

Each feeder has small "feet" at the bottom to help air flow under it to<br />

discourage damp spots, and the flip top makes it very easy to fill and<br />

there is no better design to keep birds from roosting on top of it and<br />

fouling it with droppings.<br />

Heavy Duty Plastic Feeder<br />

A very well made<br />

feeder, with<br />

the added benefit of reducing<br />

waste. The feeding spaces are<br />

a bit closer together and will reduce<br />

waste because the birds<br />

can not toss it out. The feeders<br />

will also reduce insects from gethering under the feeder due to the<br />

placement of legs to keep it a bit off the floor. A top quality feeder that<br />

will last for years and years. Also great for grit because the heavy duty<br />

plastic will not react to the salt in grit like a metal feeder might.<br />

#226 Sleeve Drinker 2 gal. $10.00<br />

Heated Poultry Drinker<br />

This all season drinker is unique in<br />

design and solves the problem of frozen<br />

drinkers in the winter. This is a thermo statically<br />

controlled drinker that keeps water from freezing in<br />

sub-zero temperatures. The base itself has a built in<br />

electrical connection. Simply plug in your extension<br />

cord and your ready to go. Keeps water from freezing<br />

in sub-zero temperatures when winter is over.<br />

Just unplug and use the drinker like any other. To fill, you flip upside<br />

down and it will stand alone. Remove the rubber plug and fill. Includes<br />

an easy grip carrying handle. The base is 12 3/4" in diameter<br />

and the whole unit is in the see through tank. We suggest it be placed<br />

out of the wind. 3 gallons. 100 watts.<br />

Large Drinker<br />

small back screw on plug, so that is also in this kit.<br />

Why not order an extra kit when you order one of<br />

the large drinkers.<br />

#2171 Heated Poultry Drinker $53.00<br />

Spanish Cage Drinkers<br />

It is always nice to be able to add<br />

feed and water to birds in a breeding<br />

cage or birds in quarantine for whatever reason,<br />

without actually opening the cage door. It is always a<br />

possibility that when you are opening the door to feed<br />

and water the birds, they will escape. This cage drinker<br />

eliminates that possibility because it is on the outside<br />

of the cage. The base of the drinker slips thru the cage<br />

wire and with a twist, it is locked in place. The top slips<br />

off the base, so when you want to fill it with water, you<br />

need not unscrew it, which would be difficult. The drinker is all plastic<br />

and you can see the level of the water in a glance. A problem at many<br />

shows is the fact that the birds in their cages often spill the water and<br />

make a mess. Take one of these to a show, one for each bird, and the<br />

water will not be spilled and it is almost impossible to foul the water.<br />

As I have stressed many times in this catalog, birds at a show are<br />

stressed by having to drink water that they are not familiar with and<br />

this may cause stress. Bring your own water and if you want to add<br />

something like our Show Water, it will help prevent stress even more.<br />

Great for pigeons, cage birds and chickens.<br />

Clean drinking water is so very important, but many fanciers are a<br />

bit lax on this. WATER MUST BE CHANGED EVERY DAY, ESPE-<br />

CIALLY IN HOT WEATHER. Bacteria in the drinking water grows<br />

quite rapidly and in hot weather, by the second day, it is growing<br />

quickly and may cause disease. I have 200-400 pigeons at any<br />

given time, and yes, I change the water every day. I happen to use<br />

drinkers that hold one gallon of water, and in some of my lofts I<br />

have to put out two drinkers, and I do. The reason I use drinkers in<br />

the gallon size is that it is so much easier to add vitamins, probiotics<br />

or medicine. Directions on most all products are for one gallon<br />

of water, I don’t have to take the time to measure.<br />

This unique drinker/feeder is made of the highest quality, heavy duty,<br />

weather resistant plastic. It may be used as both a feeder and drinker,<br />

as they will hold feed or water at the same time. The two hole is meant<br />

for feed on one side and water on the other. The three hole is ideal for<br />

feed, water and grit, all with their individual compartments. Suggested<br />

106 RECORD PRICES KEEPING SUBJECT | TO SEX CHANGE INDICATOR<br />

Record keeping is very important, and yet many fanciers do very little. When you breed your birds, you should put a pair marker band on each<br />

bird. I use a blue numbered snap-on for cocks and a pink numbered snap-on for the hens. Snap-ons are sold in packs of 1-12. 13-24,25-36<br />

and 37-48. The cock, for example, is banded with a blue #1 and his mate is banded with a pink #1. When I mate up my birds, I mark each<br />

nest box with the corresponding number of the pair. Nest box #1 is occupied by pair #1. I do this by placing each pair in a nest box until they<br />

are mated and have claimed their nest box. I record the nest box and pair on breeding record cards, which I keep in the loft. Periodically, or at<br />

the end of the breeding season, I record cards to my loft register. I keep a loft register for each year, sometimes I use more than one loft register<br />

book. It is important to write the year on the front of each loft register book, as years go by, it is easier to find the book I want. If I need to fill<br />

out a pedigree blank, I will need to get the information from the loft register books. Some people never sell birds, and do not think they need<br />

to keep records. I strongly suggest you keep accurate records as possible. If you raise a really good bird, you would certainly want to know<br />

where it came from, wouldn’t you? If you have a really good pair of breeders, and something happens to one of them, wouldn’t you want to<br />

know if you have offspring of the pair so that you can mate the mother to a son or the father to a daughter. Keeping records takes very little<br />

time but if you don’t do it, no amount of work will supply the information needed.<br />

NPA Bands - The National Pigeon Association is an organization all fancy pigeon breeders should consider joining. This is the only national fancy<br />

pigeon organization and sponsors the National Pigeon Show every year. The NPA offers many benefits and supports our pigeon keeping future. See<br />

order information chart for correct band size and shipping information. To contact the NPA call 404-922-4960. If you do not put the leg bands on<br />

your pigeons, you are certainly not doing the hobby any good. These leg bands are placed on the baby birds when they are very young. When the<br />

baby grows, the band will never come off. The leg band contains a serial number, year born, and the organization that issued the leg band. If you do<br />

not band your birds, you can never show the bird, plus it makes the bird almost impossible to sell to another pigeon fancier. Everyone who buys<br />

or trades pigeons wants to know how old the bird is and without a seamless leg band, there is no way to know how old your bird is. Here at <strong>Foy's</strong><br />

we take calls almost every day from someone who has found a bird and would like to know who it belongs to. We keep records on the band sales<br />

and if we sold the band, we direct the caller to the breeder. If we did not sell the band, we can usually direct the caller to the organization that sold the<br />

band. Sadly, we get more calls than we should from callers who found birds with no band and the caller is at a loss as to what to do. Bad publicity for<br />

this great hobby is something we always want to discourage. When someone calls with a lost bird, it always impresses the caller when we can direct<br />

them to the breeder. Do your part and help our hobby, band your birds with a seamless leg band.<br />

Marker bands come in many sizes and your needs will depend on the breed you want them for. It the U.S., there are band manufacturers who size<br />

their bands differently them most other band companies around the world. The bands we sell, that are made in the U.S. are sized by numbers, but<br />

these numbers are only to identify the size in inches. A size 9 for instance is 9/16", but in the rest of the world a size 9 means 9 mm, which is about<br />

1/3". I guess by now I have you confused. The best way to understand band sizes, as sold by <strong>Foy's</strong> ,is to keep in mind that Bandettes and Spirals<br />

are made in the U.S. and we have listed the sizes in both fraction of an inch, and the size that the company lists them in. All the rest of the bands<br />

are listed in mm and we always list in the description of the bands, what breed they fit. If your breed is not mentioned, just use a band that is for a<br />

breed that is close in size to your breed. If you have a question, don't hesitate contacting us for an explanation.<br />

E-Z Lockrings No Numbers Size 7<br />

This design has been offered because of the<br />

extra security. The ring can be closed fast and<br />

easily attached to the birds leg by pinching the sides<br />

together. Once the ring is closed, it can not be opened<br />

unless you want to open it by using something with a point, such as a<br />

pen. No more finding bands on the floor when the pigeon somehow<br />

manages to get it off. Bands are sold in pigeon size 7mm and 8mm.<br />

Go to our breed of pigeons chart to see which breeds size 7 fit. 7 fits<br />

Rollers, Tippler and many more breeds. Size 8 fits Racing Homers,<br />

Chinese Owls, Jacobins and many more. See the NPA Chart for a list<br />

DID YOU KNOW? - A pigeon lays two eggs a day apart. The two eggs<br />

can be any combination of hen or cock. One of each or two of the<br />

same sex. You can handle the eggs or babies at any time. Parents do<br />

not know their own eggs or young, you can move them to any other<br />

parents as long as they are within a day or so in age. It is possible for<br />

pigeons to change from one sex to the other, but this is a rare occurrence,<br />

and the change can only be from female to male. Lemon juice in<br />

the drinking water prevents Salmonella (Paratyphoid from spreading,<br />

and helps to fight viral diseases. Not too much though, if you’re not<br />

sure, taste it, and if it is bitter, that’s too much. The same can be said<br />

about Apple Cider Vinegar. If you are using an antibiotic in the drinking<br />

water, that ends in cycline, the two together are much more readily<br />

absorbed.<br />

Band Covers<br />

Some race clubs insist<br />

that seamless<br />

bands be covered so that<br />

the birds can not be identified<br />

when shipping a race or<br />

at an auction. Fancy pigeon shows sometimes require the seamless<br />

band be covered while being judged. These band covers are made to<br />

fit over most bands.<br />

E-Z Clip Rings With Numbers<br />

These bands snap on and off as desired. They have many<br />

uses and are a must in every loft. If you have a few birds,<br />

mark each pair with the same color. You may mark all the young with<br />

the same color in order to have an easier time recognizing a family of<br />

birds. Perhaps you wish to mark all the cock birds with say a blue<br />

band and all the hens with a pink band. If you wish to mark specific<br />

pairs you may use the numbered Snap On Rings to mark each pair<br />

with a number. You would put say a blue #1 on the cock and a pink<br />

#1 on it's mate. The minimum number you may order of the Snap On<br />

Rings with no numbers is 50, and you may mix the colors. Snap On<br />

Rings are 3/8" inside diameter and 5/16" high. Will fit medium size<br />

pigeons such as Racing Homers, etc. A little loose on Rollers, etc.<br />

E-Z Clip Rings, With Numbers<br />

Available in orange, pink, dark blue, red, violet, green, yellow, light<br />

blue, white, black and silver. The minimum order is one set of 25.<br />

You may not mix the colors. 8mm.<br />

yellow, light green, orange, pink, dark blue, silver and violet. Look<br />

much better on small breeds, but a bit loose on pigeons smaller than<br />

Racing Homers. There are times where you may want to put two rings<br />

on the same leg, and this is the ring you would want to use. Available<br />

in green, red, yellow, white and light blue.<br />

IS AN EGG FERTILE?<br />

From 5-10 days, place an egg over a light such as a strong flashlight,<br />

you can normally see the blood vessels already around the newly<br />

formed baby. After 10 days the egg becomes opaque (darker), and you<br />

can only see the air chamber at the top of the egg, the rest is filled<br />

with the forming baby. If the egg is not fertile, it will not hatch, or if it<br />

becomes very dark, the baby has died in the shell.<br />

Band Storage Boxes<br />

We sell a variety of band storage boxes to try to meet the needs of a<br />

variety of breeders. As a pigeon breeder most of my life, I recognize<br />

the need to have a variety of market bands in the loft. Some uses of<br />

marker bands are:<br />

• Mark all the cocks and hens.<br />

• Use a single color or combination of colors to mark a family of<br />

pigeons. By using a narrow line band, you might put a red and<br />

green on the same leg to identify all the young from a special pair.<br />

• If you are raising some special birds for a particular race, mark<br />

each bird you raise for that race.<br />

• If you raise White Homers for the release business or young Racers<br />

to fly in a team, each team member gets a special color.<br />

I am sure you can think of other<br />

uses of marker bands and a band<br />

storage box would be great for any<br />

loft. We offer two sizes of band boxes. The small<br />

is 10 1/2" long and 6 1/2" front to back. The small<br />

includes dividers to create a total of 15 compartments<br />

of various sizes. The large band box is 13<br />

3/4" x 8 3/4". The large includes dividers to create 24 compartments<br />

of various sizes.<br />

Band Storage Boxes with Size 8 Snap-On<br />

Rings<br />

Everyone should have one<br />

of these storage boxes in the loft. A Storage Box<br />

will help you keep the dust off all you bands, and<br />

will but what you need at your finger tips. If you<br />

have a bunch of bands now, why not consider<br />

purchasing an empty box to put them in. No longer<br />

will you have to search around looking for a<br />

particular color, or be surprised when you thought you had a particular<br />

color but find out you are out. A storage box keeps all you Snap Ons in<br />

the same place, clean and you know what you have at a glance. Also<br />

used to store your seamless birth rings and computer chips for racing<br />

birds. The filled Small Ring Storage Box contains a total of 400 Snap<br />

Ons, 1-50 in Blue and 1-50 in pink. The remaining 300 are an assortment<br />

of all the colors we stock. We offer two styles of Snap On Rings<br />

the Narrow ones and the standard ones. The difference between the<br />

two is the narrow ones are slightly narrower than the standard. They are<br />

5mm high and are handy when you may want to put two bands an a<br />

leg, perhaps a blue for the cock and the other may signify a particular<br />

family of birds or what nest box they belong in or perhaps a bird that you<br />

want to race or show. The standard size are 8mm high and both the 5<br />

mm and the 8 mm are the same inside diameter of 8mm. Both sizes are<br />

for size birds that are similar in size to a Racing Homer. The filled Large<br />

Ring Storage Box contains 600 rings, 1-50 In blue, 1-50 in Pink. The<br />

remaining 500 are an assortment of all the colors we stock. You get a<br />

total of 600 rings. You may also decide on exactly what colors you want<br />

in either the small of large box, at a slightly higher cost as noted below.<br />

Boxes are see through plastic.<br />

E-Z Elastic Rings<br />

A new concept of<br />

elastic rings which<br />

can easily be put over the leg of a bird<br />

using the specifically manufactured<br />

E-Z Ringing Gun. Thanks to the use of highly elastic material, the rings<br />

can expand up to 5 times their original size.<br />

Benefits:<br />

• The limited height of the rings makes it possible to combine several<br />

colors of rings, one above the other, greatly expanding the options<br />

for marking.<br />

• No concerns about the rings becoming too tight as the ring<br />

expands with the growth of the bird.<br />

• The rings are very soft and pliable.<br />

• The rings come in a series of bright colors which makes it very<br />

easy to see them on the birds. This new concept clearly provides<br />

the fancier with nothing but benefits.<br />

• Great for pigeons, cage birds, poultry or any type of bird that<br />

requires a way to identify them.<br />

Your first order should be a Starter Kit, which includes the applicator<br />

gun and 20 of the E-Z Elastic Rings in an assortment of colors. They<br />

come in 6 sizes from the smallest for cage birds and the largest size for<br />

poultry or larger pigeons. When you order the Starter Kit you have what<br />

you need in the size you need, and you do not need the applicator gun<br />

in the future. Colors available are yellow, green, red, violet and blue.<br />

long and 6 1/2" front to back. The small includes<br />

dividers to create a total of 15 compartments of<br />

various sizes. The large band box is 13 3/4" x 8<br />

3/4". The large includes dividers to create 24 compartments of various<br />

sizes.<br />

Nest Bowl Corner Shelf<br />

I have been a pigeon fancier for the better<br />

part of 65 years. One of the problems I<br />

have always had is the pigeons, for some reason,<br />

make nest and lay the eggs on the floor. Now there<br />

are plenty of nest boxes, so that is not a problem,<br />

but for whatever reason, they nest on the floor.<br />

They almost always make their nest in a corner,<br />

and if there are perches above, the nest is always a mess because of<br />

droppings from above. Now I usually do not have perches near the<br />

corners, so that, in most cases solves the problem of the droppings<br />

falling on the corner nests, but the corner nests are still a problem,<br />

as the pair have problems defending the nesting area from aggressive<br />

cock birds. The newly designed Corner Nest Bowl Shelf goes a long<br />

way in protecting the eggs and young, much like a regular nest box, it<br />

is much easier to defend from other cock birds. The design allows you<br />

to face it in two directions, the open front and doweled side allows for<br />

a lot of air flow. Since it need not be screwed to a wall, it is much easier<br />

to clean the area, move it, clean the area and put it right back. The unit<br />

is large enough to use any size nest bowl, including the larger Dandy<br />

Nest Bowl. The unit is 12” X 12” X 12” high. Sturdy all wood construction<br />

will last for many years. There is no need to paint it, but it will last<br />

longer if painted and the painted wood resists moisture and stains.<br />

"Pigeon Racing Analytics: Winning With Data"<br />

Racing Pigeon Analytics: Winning With Data” utilizes 13<br />

years of data collection, analysis and testing to show<br />

"Courageous Couriers"<br />

In November 2008 I received a call from Jake Van<br />

Dyke of Florance, Alabama. He told me that after<br />

the American Pigeon Journal went out of business,<br />

a relative of Frank Hollmann, who was a relative<br />

and member of the Tennessee Pigeon and Dove<br />

Club, acquired the remaining copies of an out of<br />

print book called "Courageous Couriers". The relative<br />

distributed copies to all the club members and<br />

then Jake acquired the remaining books. These books have been<br />

in storage for many years and in November 2008, <strong>Foy's</strong> purchased<br />

the remaining books and, while they last, we offer these antique,<br />

World War II books to you, our customer. This edition was published<br />

by Frank Hollmann of The American Pigeon Journal in May 1977.<br />

These "Memoirs of a Pigeon Soldier" and the chronology of events<br />

commence with the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. It was a<br />

well-kept secret, but an American infantry division landed in Northern<br />

Ireland in January 1912, and by mid 1912 the United States was<br />

deploying military pigeon communications detachments to overseas<br />

destinations. Chapter 1 covers pigeons and Pearl Harbor. Chapter<br />

II covers the pigeon as "Messengers Since Dawn of Civilization".<br />

Many black and white photos are in this 136 page, soft covered book,<br />

including many well known and some lesser known pigeon heroes.<br />

Army lofts, equipment, personnel, methods and training information<br />

is in this interesting book. Were you aware that you can train racing<br />

homers to fly two ways, back and forth to two different lofts? This<br />

book tells you how to do it.<br />

There is just so much fascinating information. You'll be better informed<br />

about your pigeons and you'll also learn much about how the<br />

Pigeon Corps operated. This is a real collectors book.<br />

"The Search For Those Fabulous Whittinghams" (Rollers)<br />

This is actually a set of two booklets, totaling over 300 pages. This<br />

was a home publishing project so be aware the booklets are not professionally<br />

done. This is an archival project to preserve elements of<br />

the Birmingham Roller history in the United States and Canada. These<br />

two booklets are an attempt to replace a scrapbook stolen from the<br />

United Roller Club in 1937. Both authors Steve Roth and Joe Quinn<br />

have maintained private collections of letters, bulletins, articles and<br />

personal correspondance. Both authors feared that their collection<br />

would be lost on their demise, so they produced these booklets of<br />

Rollers in the mid 1800's. In the fall of 1947 Bill Pensom came to this<br />

country and brought along some of his best Rollers which were a mix<br />

of the Whittinghams. If you are a flying Roller/breeder, these books will<br />

offer an insight to the history of Rollers and make you a better informed<br />

The Flying Birmingham Roller<br />

Birmingham Rollers are a very unique performance breed.<br />

What they do in the air is far different from performance of<br />

other breeds of pigeons. The breeds unique ability and the<br />

unanswered questions as to why they spin probably explains<br />

why so few books have been written on Birmingham<br />

Rollers despite the number of Roller enthusiast. Written<br />

by Dave Gehrke who acquired his first Rollers in 1971. Dave and<br />

his wife Rita are also editors of the publication "The Roller Journal".<br />

"Flying the Birnmingham Roller" is a well written 236 page, soft cover<br />

LOFT BOOKS<br />

"Lofts of North America"<br />

This book is the result of over 5 years of work, and I<br />

truly believe it is the most anticipated book in many<br />

years. As the owner of a major pigeon supply company,<br />

we receive inquiries on a regular basis, asking for<br />

information about building a loft. This book is meant<br />

to give you ideas, not only on what a loft looks like,<br />

but it is also full of interior pictures of a loft to give<br />

examples of nest boxes, perches, flooring, breeder cages, ventilation,<br />

windows, doors, trapping, aviaries, feeders, drinkers, and so much<br />

more. We included over 100 lofts from Hawaii, Alaska, Canada,<br />

North-South-West and Eastern United States. I did not want just Taj<br />

Mahal type lofts that cost a mint, (but there are some in the loft), I<br />

wanted the Average Joe loft, Racing Homer lofts, Fantail lofts, Runts,<br />

Rollers, Pouters, Dovecoats, Parlor Tumblers and so much more. We<br />

have included step by step pictures on building a loft and a page by<br />

page diagram with bill of materials to build a 4x8 loft. The book is 99%<br />

in color and much of the description text is written by the fancier who<br />

built the loft. We have amature builders and professional builders.<br />

The book is editing as we go to press with our catalog, so I can not<br />

tell you how many pages it is, but it will be over 200 and I can assure<br />

you, it will be professionally produced and a book that you will want<br />

for the many great ideas offered. Even if you do not plan on building a<br />

loft, Lofts of North America will give you a ton of ideas about improving<br />

the loft you have. If you would like an autographed copy, please let us<br />

know. A Great Gift. I apologize for the high cost, but printing a book<br />

in color and what a printer considers a low number, it is very expensive<br />

to print. Written by Jerry Gagne.<br />

"Building Pigeon Lofts Legally"<br />

The purpose of this book is to help you avoid many of<br />

the problems that can occur when you attempt ANY<br />

residential or hobby building project. I hope you follow<br />

my advice. I have had various consultations with<br />

government department officials over the years, and<br />

want my knowldge to be useful to others. Whether<br />

you want to build or remodel a pigeon loft, an outbuilding or a new<br />

house addition, this book will help guide you. Some people are going<br />

to be interested in stopping your project, because they may not have<br />

learned what an interesting hobby you have. That makes it necessary<br />

to proceed with your project legally, and carefullly. In portions of<br />

this book I give you information about my worldly travels, and insight<br />

about lofts and flying in Japan. I lived and traveled there 18 months.<br />

I joined the Aomori City Racing Pigeon (desho bato) Club, and raced<br />

pigeons fo two young bird seasons. My life would have been much<br />

less interesting without my Japanese tomadachi "friends". I want to<br />

thank them for the friendship they shared with me, and show you how<br />

devotd to the sport they are. Just like Americans are.<br />

author has also raised Cape Doves and Zebra Doves and this book<br />

also contains chapters on all aspects of raising these beautiful birds.<br />

This book could have never been printed without someone like Rich Puccini.<br />

His love of the Diamond Dove and desire to make others aware of<br />

these beautiful, tiny birds, demand that he write and publish this book.<br />

The book is a soft cover book with 88 pages and 75 color photos. If<br />

you have Diamond Doves or are planning on acquiring some, this book<br />

is a must. This book will give you guidance that you need and prevent<br />

your making mistakes that will delay your success. Self publication in<br />

color is expensive, but Mr. Puccini refused to take any shortcuts and<br />

you will agree that it is a first class publication and a work of love.<br />

"Chicken Health Book"<br />

Over the 65 years or so that I have been involved<br />

with birds, there are a few books that I consider<br />

my go-to source of information. The Chicken<br />

Health Book is on the very short list of information<br />

books that I always have within arms- length<br />

and use very often. As the hobby of back yard<br />

chickens grows, I get more and more inquiry’s<br />

about the health problems of chickens. Many of<br />

the folks who call are new to chickens and do<br />

not have a clue to why their chickens are sick.<br />

The Chicken Health Book is a must for the small flock owners. Written<br />

by Gail Damerow and is a 352 page, 6” X 9”, soft cover book. My copy<br />

is about wore out because of the many times I have thumbed thru it<br />

looking for answers. The Chicken Health Book covers most diseases<br />

that strike chickens and goes a step further by identifying symptoms<br />

the cause disease. Treatments are included. If I were going to keep one<br />

book on chicken health, this is the one.<br />

not flying around during the show and judging process.<br />

imported judging cage is that it includes a floor that allows you to<br />

place the cage anywhere while training the birds to get used to being<br />

judged. If you are having a guest look at your birds, it is great to have<br />

the judging cage set up so that your guest or prospective buyer can<br />

look and handle the birds. The cage is held to the bottom tray by two<br />

springs and the top is held in place by another two springs. The swing<br />

out door makes for easy access to the bird or birds. 24" X 24" x 23<br />

For your benefit, we are listing many of these beneficial combinations. Use the directions on each container.<br />

Cox Powder Combined with Trimethroprim<br />

#2508 Cox Powder is a great combination of Trimethroprim<br />

and sulfas for the excellent treatment<br />

of Coccidiosis as well as a broad spectrum of<br />

antibiotics against bacteria that are found in the<br />

respiratory system.<br />

#2508 Cox/Trimethroprim Powder 100 gr. $26.00<br />

Bromhexine Combined with Antibiotics<br />

(Mycoban or Aviodox)<br />

#2522 Bromhexine cleans the respiratory<br />

tract and may be combined with<br />

any antibiotics for the first four days of<br />

treatment. The combination of products<br />

such as #2521 Mycoban or #2519<br />

AvioDox are a couple of examples The<br />

combination increases the levels of antibiotics<br />

in the lung tissue.<br />

#2522 Avio-Bromhexine Powder 100 gr. $23.00<br />

Cover Art: "the Holy Spirit"<br />

W<br />

ith all my experience in the art world, I was still a<br />

novice when it came to pigeon paintings. I learned<br />

from the ground up. It took five years with Mike's, my husband,<br />

instruction to truly understand what must be captured<br />

in a pigeon painting. Mike was truly patient and I marveled<br />

at his love and passion for the Bokhara Trumpeter. This passion<br />

and peace is imbedded in his soul. I have learned to<br />

appreciate and share the enthusiasm and love Mike has for<br />

pigeons. In addition, our love for each other is unequaled.<br />

After the article "A Life's Journey" appeared in Purebred Pigeon in 2006, Mike and I married and eventually bought Boxes For<br />

Birds and Mike built a new pigeon loft about 150' long for 13 breeds.<br />

In 2013 I had a stroke one month before Easter and felt so Blessed that I started the Holy Spirit painting (a dove). I always<br />

pray when I paint since my hands seem to be working with God's help as a messenger...it is God's work!<br />

On Good Friday I was painting in the kitchen with great lighting since the art studio was not finished. Mike came in for lunch<br />

and we heard 5 bells...and there was nothing in the kitchen that would make the sounds and we were puzzled.<br />

Mike usually photographs my work in progression and the 5th photograph showed a different background color other than<br />

white from the clouds above the pigeon...I prayed and prayed what to do. So it seemed to me that God wanted the paint to<br />

be extremely illuminated and put the copper color out side of the white coming from the sky. Now you can stand 30-40' away<br />

from the painting and it looks illuminated by it's own light.<br />

The next day I was listening to the History Channel on TV and all of a sudden I hear the words from Noah speaking to the<br />

children..."on the 5th Day God made birds". I had goose bumps all over while remembering Mark 1:9-11....when Jesus was<br />

baptized and came out of the water...he saw the heavens opened and the Spirit of the dove descended upon him.<br />

The painting could be called "the Message" or "Peace on Earth"<br />

I was so Blessed after the stroke that I realized that really there is not much more in life than our faith... material wealth or not,<br />

good health or not...it is our Faith that matters.<br />

SHERRY BEADLE OWEN was raised on San Simon Ranch in SE New<br />

Mexico, Sherry Beadle began painting and studying what was to become<br />

her lifelong passion at the tender age of seven. Horses and ranch life with<br />

all it's richness in nature were instilled in this cowgirl. Not only did she<br />

learn how to participate in cattle round ups and branding, but also how to<br />

cook for the cowboys.<br />

Sherry's art has been exhibited from Washington D.C. to Hollywood at the<br />

Golden Boot Awards. She was appointed as a Good Will Ambassador by<br />

Governors of New Mexico and Texas while touring her art in Europe.<br />

VARIOUS CATEGORIES OF ART<br />

Celebrity Portraits, Horse Portraits, Western Art, Native American, Big<br />

Game, Bison, Horse Racing, Polo Pigeons and Murals<br />

GICLEE REPRODUCTIONS AVAILABLE<br />

Giclee in French means "to spray". It transfers to a process of creating reproductions<br />

of original artwork using continuos-tone ink-jet technology. A<br />

fine stream of ink is sprayed onto Archival paper and canvas. The acceptance<br />

of giclees is growing in galleries and museums as the Metropolitan<br />

Museum of Art; the Guggenheim, and the Smithsonian Institute.
