Anyone know the difference or use it
My pal uses it and thinks it’s good stuff but I think it’s just similar to iodine but I could well be wrong

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

Never used any Gerdon products Neil, so I'd only be Googling same as other people about that
I know what you like though - and I think this would raise your eyebrows in a pleasing way
