Get them tested. Meanwhile I would put some cider vinegar in the water. Once you know what you are dealing with you will know how to proceed.

tested around here id be lucky none of the vets here deal with pigeons

think theres someone who tests in the homing world chris...........

first thing to do is stop feeding the bird, or all of them if more are like this........no food for 24 hours (altho i didnt feed for 48)

i need some of that nifurm or w.e it is but carnt find any for sale anyways

baytryl is better chris for your stock

if this is a valuable stock bird i would be straight to the vets i

have taken a few pigeons before and was surprised how much

knowledge they did know but they may treat the digestive

system the same for all birds i also think the advice to not feed

for 24hrs is right and leave it at that unless it rapidly deteriorates

or should it spread to other birds i would open a new bag of corn incase the corn was contaminated

i was thinking maybe its the corn or the storage of it

what is that saying your first instinct is usually the right one

just an opinion mate nothing more and nothing less ,bungle

youve had this problem with the ybs too havnt you chris, if it was me i would think about proper treatment and getting them tested..........or it could wipe the full loft out.
