Lincospectin


Hi All,

I'm new in this Forum and also new in Pigeon Racing.

I wanted to ask if someone can advise me about the following. If I use the Lincospectin Injection for long distance how many days prior the race should I inject the pigeons. Also can you advise me for how long as well.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Sharon and welcome! I don't know the answer to your question but have moved it to a forum where there should be some responses.

LINCO-SPECTIN
(lincomycin hydrochloride and spectinomycin sulfate)

Sterile Solution
The Broader-Spectrum Treatment for Poultry

Nothing beats LINCO-SPECTIN Sterile Solution (lincomycin hydrochloride and spectinomycin sulfate) for bacterial infections in poultry. Not gram-negative bacteria. Not gram-positives. Not even the tough mycoplasmal infections. You can look for a better injectable product. You can even try combining others. But nothing beats the powerful combination of antibiotics in LINCO-SPECTIN.

Indications

For prevention and treatment of cholera, coryza, air sac infections caused by Mycoplasma species and E. coli, respiratory diseases, sinusitis and staphylococcosis.
dosage for pigeons is injectable 0.2ml per bird water is 5cc to 1 litre of water

Key Features

Broader spectrum: Combination of lincomycin and spectinomycin is especially effective on mixed bacterial diseases complicated by chronic respiratory disease
Outperforms tylosin, tetracycline, penicillin, potentiated sulfonamides and fluoroquinolones
Convenient and also available as a feed premix or soluble powder formulation

Packaging
LINCO-SPECTIN Sterile Solution
50-mL, 100-mL and 250-mL vials

Dosage/Administration

Inject subcutaneously 30 mg/kg of body weight every 24 hours for 3 days or once followed by a water treatment with LINCO-SPECTIN Soluble Powder. Withdraw from poultry 14 days before slaughter.

I wouldn't give them any antibiotics unless they had a problem, but that's just me. Medicine can stress their systems and some may have side-affects, which could cost you the race if you give them too close to shipping.

If the bird is sick, then why would you consider sending it to a race ?
