Hello everyone!
Last night, pickle, one of our silver laced wyandotte chicks started sneezing. I put my hand in the brooder to let them jump on my hand, like I always do, and she sneezed and I felt water hit my arm. She isn't wheezing from what I can tell, and none of the other 7 chicks are sneezing from what I can tell. She doesn't have discharge (I think?). They were 3 weeks old on Thursday. They are currently in my office, in a large circle brooder on aspen shavings. The top is wire, so there is good ventilation, and there aren't any drafts since they're indoors and under the heat lamp
Should I be worried, or segregate her from the rest? I would hate to do that, as she is one of the "pushy" chicks, and I'm worried if I segregate her then she will be even more pushy when reintroduced..
