They get over fat eye in a few days with no treatment. It’s a virus and you can’t treat a virus.

I have to say its something that I've never seen, hopefully I never will.

When Maria kicks off, i end up with it.

I had it 3 years ago. The birds soon got over it with no lasting effects.

What I know of Fat Eye is not a simple matter at all

There are treatments out there, but I've never come across anything that's truly effective

It's best to let it runs its course

The thing is its like a creeping death

It only impacts a small % of the team, they get it, then say 7 days or so later they're fine

Then another small % of it come down with it

And then another small % come down with it

Once you get it, you'll have fat eye in that loft for at least a month

That's what "most" fanciers who get "Fat Eye" are seeing


Some fanciers continue to race their YB (selecting those who aren't impacted)

Whether that's the right decision is a matter for their conscience

if you get it put bath in for them it spreads in water to the rest get it over and done with instead of it taking weeks
