Fungus Stop Powder: Candida & Sour Crop Treatment for Pigeons, Cage Birds and Backyard Poultry (100 g)

Fungus Stop is a powder for treating and preventing Candida, a yeast infection of the digestive tract that commonly causes sour crop in cage birds, pigeons and backyard poultry. The crop is the food pouch at the base of the throat. Candida often takes hold as a primary infection after contaminated water, a poor diet (too much sugar, or fatty seeds that have gone rancid), long courses of antibiotics such as doxycycline, or a weakened immune system. Watch for a hard, compacted or foul-smelling crop, a crop full of mucus, a crop that is slow to empty, fluffed feathers, lethargy and loss of appetite. Mix Fungus Stop into seed for a 5–7 day course. You can also mix it with water to give directly into the crop. To help the powder stick to the grain, coat the seed lightly with oil first; Feather & Immune Oil is recommended.
