Talk about anything racing pigeon related here aslong as there isnt a section for it.

What's the ph of your water straight from the Tap? It's a pity we can't still excess the old Pigeon Chat posts. There were many threads on the ph level. I put a list of products and the effect they had on the ph level.
It's a pity we cannot test the birds gut after drinking water with a reduced ph. As a pigeons gut ph is naturally 5.32-5.89, does the bird reduce the level to this when it has taken water either by rasing a lower ph intake, or lowing a high one?

It was 6.82 after standing over night from the tap king before adding any of the Acv or avidress
I didn’t test it instantly from the tap as I have to fill water in advance so wanted to test it as it would be if left at the loft

I guess poultry farming would have more idea on it all due to the money in the industry

When i had Koi carp, i was busy all the while with PH testing. Another thing i enjoyed, until a young family member fell in the pond. So that ended that.

Never tested my Koi pond and don’t test any of the 30 tanks we have in the shop.
Back just enjoying club racing for the time being.
