As the title says does a drinking water treatment of ivomec cause temporary infertility. I have read that some breeders think it does. I have some finches that are about to nest but I'm sure I've heard an occasional air sac honk from the gouldians just recently. I'm not 100% sure yet if they have it but thought I'd give them a precautionary treatment if it's ok.

No,not to my knowledge. It is not a good idea to get bogged down on treatments for possible ailments,just let your birds do their thing and enjoy the results. Cheers Craig
