Gerdon / iodine

[NeilA]

It doesn't say on the label what type of Iodine it is? (there are several types) It says its a blend of some TWENTY essential minerals and trace elements formulated to be readily absorbed into the system - "The complete Supplement" without saying what they are?
Because it's made for pigeons it will contain less Iodine and be more expensive than a product that is JUST Iodine.

I use Povidone-iodine not made for pigeons, so it doesn't have a mark up price as pigeon products do. I've used it for years 1m/ltr twice a week.

I use iodine as you do king
I’m having trouble as I cant read the strength on the label
It’s ages since I have needed a new one
What percentage are you using is it 10pc ? Mine was the square bottle with a purple label

Yes Neil Videne Antiseptic Solution 10% around £13.69

Cheers King

This is highly tried and very well trusted Neil (Its available in other outlets for a largely similar price)

Been around forever https://www.gardenfeathers.co.uk/other- ... iT6iSdNkDv

I do remember that Mike from my first time in pigeons many years back as a boy
It must be decent to still be about

To be honest it doesn't get very much exposure, and I have to be honest I never used it myself; but since retiring from racing the list of good fliers who use it and swear by it is remarkable really.

I used to use "Blitzform" but I had major issues with it and ended up tossing it in the bin

Then I migrated onto "Quick" and I got on much better with that

But if I returned (not that I will) I'd probably use Johnson's

I used blitzform and was really happy with it but I notice on hot days the water wasn’t going down with it in as much as it did without it so I thought maybe they are not hydrating
I haven’t tried Gem impact which looks similar
Using the iodine I never seem to get canker issues but to be honest I only buy a bottle every few years as it’s in 500ml and now my normal one which I know and trust seems to be out of stock everywhere I have found similar . I am
no expert on it and worry it’s not exactly the same and I do harm

Cheers Mark I didn’t know that I go I thought it might be a different ingredient added or something I wasn’t thinking it was just strength
