- This video will explain the reasons behind pigeons panting. Many fanciers immediately think respiratory disease. The video will tell the cause and show healthy young pigeons that were panting right after a training toss. Experienced and new fanciers will understand the myths behind panting. Panting is used to cool the pigeons body temperature but also happens for other reasons explained in the video.

Thanks Frank! I'm following your natural system and did not medicate my birds at all for the YB races. They're doing fine. One of them won the 3rd place in CJC combine for the 100 mile race last week out of 2463 pigeons.
Nice job. Congratulations!
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons Thank you!
That is very good Frank yes my loft has little Dust no feather bloom dust! That can affect your birds as same with us in the Lungs!. Good healthy birds Frank cool.
Much dust can bother the pigeons. Better to try to keep the dust down. My lofts are bit dusty much of the time and the birds still fly well. Less dust is better of course.
Thank you Frank
I'm glad I followed your advice and did not medicate the birds after panting only on a 5 minutes flight
They seem to be happy and healthy
I know it is scary to see them pant but this is is normal with healthy pigeons.
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons
I just sent you the club results for this week.
I will take a look. Thank you
glad to know that Frank makes the most informative videos
Thanks, Frank! This video helped me a lot. I was worried about them panting after a few minutes of flying. I also never medicate and I was worries about some respiratory disease or something, but they fly just well if they stay up longer, and they do not pant in that case, just as you mentioned. Dry eyes, nose, clean throat, also. Again, very helpful video! Thank you!
I am so happy this helped. Panting is normal in healthy pigeons and nothing to worry about if all else is looking good.
The last bird in the video the cheq will be one of the best birds this year can you keep an eye out for that one please frank and keep updates on its progress 👍👍👍
Nice pick. I have liked that bird since it arrived.
hi frank i agree totally if everything else is ok they are fine and i think you are right about natural immunity , theres to much this overuse antibiotics i think its one of reasons for high loses especialy youngsters, when i get started i be following your advice, thanks , i still not found a good place to have the birds ,but will keep trying till i do , also your advise about finding a partner maybe best thing , take care from Ali in Scotland
Hope you can find a great place to enjoy some pigeons. I am happy you watch and like my videos. Keep looking!
Super excited got them yellow drops today drop my finger it’s stained! must be the good stuff! No shipping this weekend flying out of Columbus next weekend.. hoping for some good early morning tosses from Portage lakes Sunday Monday or Wednesday got rainy weather Thursday Friday will what happens one day at a time..
Fingers crossed!
You know, some of my old Roller bloodlines here can routinely fly 8 to 10 hours straight without pushing them hard, but it's not uncommon to see them pant heavy on a short 15 or 30 minute fly if I pull them down with the feed. I believe you're correct that it's really just a sort of physical reaction to a warm-up or maybe even a nervous reaction, as they don't do it after a long duration fly. I think maybe if we're keeping the birds hungry to have control over them, we're almost tricking their bodies into thinking they've worked much harder than normal, much like Pavlov who could make his dogs salivate on command by making them think they were hungry when they had actually just been fed.
Always great insight. Thank you!
Pigeons don't have sweat glands, panting is only a way of regulating their body temperature. You're right, no need to medicate. 👍
Well said!
Present Master Teacher McLaughlin
Like always good information,thank you

Frank sir i m big fan of u i fallow ur all tecnice God Blass u
So nice of you
first comment thanks frank for opening our eyes
Always. Glad you enjoy.
Thank you Frank very helpful like always
You are very welcome
Nice one Frank… 👏👏👏👏
Many thanks!
I've noticed if they birds get a hunt from a hawk even if they have inky been flying five minutes they will pant due to nerves
This is also correct. Excitement and hawk attacks and can panting.
Thank you
Welcome!
You are Amazing
You are too nice. Just a common sense pigeon guy trying help with my experience.
I started using your barley mix, and they fly longer, and im not using antibiotics since i got them
And they are super healthy, their throat pink, wattles super white, super smooth when i hold them, actually i cant hold them in one hand, it's incredible, i follow your advice, and they're really works, thank you sir frank, May our Almighty God bless you and keep you
I hope you have some super success.
thank you brother❤
Welcome!
Can pigeon recover from repiratory problems without medication?
Yes they can. If they wattle is off colored or the eye cold is not too bad I will let the pigeon recover on its own. Usually the pigeons immune system if strong can over come a respiratory problem with rest and some time.
👏 👏 👏 👏 👏
you should write a book about racing pigeons
That is nice of you.
I will buy it ❤
i’ve noticed mine sometimes panting after loft flying i did a toss sat morning and was home before them
and they weren’t panting at all it’s weird
If they look great do not worry about panting. Hope you are racing soon.
After a short fly,Pigeons sometimes pant when they get their second wind they won't.
Hi what bloodline is thatki d of bird?
No sure of which bird you are asking about. My website is here and some of my pigeons that I keep: mclaughlinlofts.com/
2 months from now, our races will start, i only gave them your feeding mix, chlorera and spirulina tablet every other day, probiotics and oregano juice to the water, is this ok sir frank? Im new to the sport
It is much too early to start feeding for the racing season. Right now give the pigeons 30% barley and 70% 14 to 16% protein mix. Use this through training and switch to the racing feed about a week or 10 days before the first race.
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons Hi Sir Frank, is it appropriate to give this mix from weaning until 10days before the race? Thanks.
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons thank you sir frank
When I wean the babies until about two months old I give them 100% Champion Mix because they are still growing and starting to molt. When I want them to start flying well I add 30% barley. They can stay on this until about 10 days before the race season.
That last bird appeared to have a blue/darker colour at the tip of the tongue. Someone told me that can be a sign of bad circulation/respiratory. Do you buy that?
Not for me the black tip on the tongue is one of the best sign I’ve seen had a hen the same black tip and the darker the tip got the better it raced winning numerous first prizes and it passed the same trait to its daughter and on numerous occasions they were 1st and 2nd swooping place race after race 👍
I am agree with Frank. The black spot of the tongue don't mean anything, it's a fairy tale that's not good.
I have more than 65 years expirience in pigeon sport racing.😊
I really do not pay any attention to the tip of the tongue. I feel some birds have more pigment than others. If everything else looks great ignore the tip of the tongue.
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons good opportunity to see true or false please keep us updated on the bird in question and if possible pictures of the tongue tip I believe the darker it goes the better it will race
Let us see what happens.
sometimes they pant when they are hot they need a drink nothing to worry about the panting cools them down
Exactly, panting helps cool them.
Have a question sir frank, Does pigeons stop and take a break between flights in races? or they recover from panting after they warmed up in their flight
I am not sure about the question. I usually ship the pigeons doing well each week and try about 1/2 new birds each week. I do not worry about panting if everything else looks good.
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons I think he means: "Do they land during a race and take a break before coming home?"
Sometimes the pigeons stop for a drink and a short rest if they are flying many hours. We hope they do not take a long break on the way home.
Hello sir, can i use organic oregano juice to the water every other day?
I have not used this but I am sure it will be excellent.
@@FrankMcLaughlinPigeons thanks sir frank
Put me down for your published book 👍
You are too nice. Thank you!
How’s about the blue tongue?
I really do not pay any attention to the tip of the tongue. I feel some birds have more pigment than others. If everything else looks great ignore the tip of the tongue.
Nicating membrane in the eye .. the clear false lazy eyelid shows chlamydia , panting when flying 80% humidity means breathing water vapour during exercise , not a lot of oxygen in that type of air ! .. you are the bomb frank you cut to the chase .
Thank you!
OK
What’s the problem if nose waddle is kinda pink not full white color?
I do not worry about kind of pink. That is usually healthy. Gray or brownish is a sign of unhealthy. Maybe email me a photo. Wattles will get pink after flying in the rain. Frank@McLaughlinLofts.com
Also a slightly pinkish tinge to the wattle is a sign of great health.
