Yes, the first thing and at least couple of weeks before breeding, give them 4 n 1 mixed with their water for the recommended time on the package. This will prevent any of the nasty illness due the stress of breeding. It is important that you give them this preventative medication.

great advise ,don't forget to give them,Provital Pigeon Breeding Plus.good for the birds after giving all that medication..
Probiotics are live cultures of microorganisms including species of Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, yeasts etc that beneficially affect the host upon ingestion by improving the balance of the intestinal micro flora.

.Tony sells this read up on it...very beneficial...before breeding and after giving medication.

I always heard that you want to worm them and give them a shot for PMV.

Pony,
I usually give mine the PMV in the fall after I break the pairs up. I have only had illness in the winter so far. I do almost the same procedure after breaking up as re- pairing. Wormer 3 days,4n1 5 days,aeuromycin 5 days,sal bac injection followed up by 5 days of probios.
