| Years back gave a guy Predesinone. ( cortisone) to stop his young birds moulting. He had them on the dark system. They start to moult 2 weeks before the last race. The cortisone stopped them. |

I would agree with you mark, if mine got ill I would treat it.......who`s to say a fret mark hampers racing performance, I would think many a pigeon has won 1st prize with a fret mark. |
