Best not to medicate at all just for sneezing. Folks are way too quick to give medications to their chickens.

 

 

 

ETA: Looked it up. I have never seen it on a shelf here so it's probably a prescription drug. I would definitely skip that.

 

 

 

 

 Yes, I am not in United States. In this country, Florfenicol is probably the best antibiotic for intestinal bacteria and respiratory bacteria I can find here. It is effective for many chicken disease.

Hmmm good to know,  I use eucaleptus steam for head/ chest colds I have a tree in the back yard, conveniant and it works! I think it is just dust though, no one else is showing any signs of being sick and the discharge seems to have dried up...?
