    Afraid I may be dealing with resp. issues

    I always put garlic in water, at least for 3 days, in spaces of 2 weeks, it prevents a lot of problems, as in my country its difficult to find pigeon drugs, when its bad I give them amoxicillin, for people. I rub the garlic in sand paper, and then add it to the drinking water, it helps.

    Cedar or Pine for Pigeon Coop Flooring

    I use sand, but its a sea shell sand that I found in the middle of rocks, the grains are bigger and my pigeons like to eat it, since I put the sand in the floor, no more soft eggs, and my quail love to play in it, you can see a big smile on their face.
