vaccinating against PMV and/or paratyphoid

[pigeonmania]

I have just read about the importance of vaccinating your birds, but is it better to vaccinate for PMV, paratyphoid, or is it better to vaccinate for both? I never really knew you could vaccinate pigeons and now I want to! Also, when and how would be good to vaccinate them? Thanks!

I think the conventional wisdom is to vaccinate for PMV, Paratyphoid, and Pox.

All three? Is it ok to use all at the same time?

You can do them all at the same time. My vet did it for me and all my birds were fine.

The youngsters will require boosters, also.

Pox is done at 4 to 6 weeks of age and its for life, no need to do that one annually.

Thank you all for the information!
