Platteeuw Yellow Drops
I couldn't say as I've never used them and personally I couldn't be bothered with all that messing about, I might well have done when I was younger and more competitive, but not these days.
I know the May's use it but don't know of anyone else in our club/fed who does, but I'm sure there are probably quite a few in the fed who do.
Another of those choice things, if you are getting the results doing whatever you do, then keep doing it

This guy has been helping me get start and seems to talk a fair amount of sense. Anyway, here’s his views of Yellow Drops https://youtu.be/9uui1e3cLDQ?si=w6z2yxgSdNMtn2GR

Sadies Lofts home of decent birds just a useless loft manager, and now a confirmed loser but proud
I can never get my head around him
At times he’s advanced with his vaccines
Then you see him trap pigeons and I think how can you win like that
His feeding for 500 miles I would doubt in a head wind but he seems to do ok with it and not even a ounce of barley a day he trains 35 miles and 50 miles I believe each week no loft flying
I can see that working for sprint but 500 miles on that feed I don’t see
It’s a shame Anthony Webster left the site as he was pals with him and met him in England a few times

My thoughts on yellow drops are it's a thing you can use if you want to. It seems effective, but many don't use it and also win races.
As you know I give mine garlic and apple cider vinegar regularly. It seems to keep them well and free of canker, and can't do any harm.
The yellow drops are the same. They seem to work and I can't see how they would do any harm. Apart from ruining your clothes.

Hi Judder
Of course
Nazaline is a very effective product and if someone is using it for the first time then I'd say to them "prepare to be amazed". It'll scare the bloody life out of you. I genuinely thought I'd killed some of mine the first time I used it
It's best used either on a Sunday night or Monday night (I favoured the Sunday night personally) because it does "knock them" a little bit in the short-term, but they do bounce back. It's important to use the drops at least 2 hours after feed because doing it sooner increases the likelihood of the bird vomiting
It's not a miracle product. Someone can't just do this and expect to win - the fundamentals of good management need to be in place too. However, I do know an awful lot of good fanciers (and I'm talking like proper proper good) and an awful lot of them use Nazaline and wouldn't stray away from using it as part of their management routine
** I used every 3 weeks as a general rule **
It's a 2 person job.
You expose the slit on each side of the nostril and administer a drop of Nazaline into each slit
When you put the pigeon back in its box or on the floor the impact is pretty quick
They stand like soldiers, head tilted back in the air with their beak wide open and eyes start to stream
Within a few minutes they're back to normal bouncing about
