How do you treat respiratory infections? I have a few chickens showing signs e.g. sneezing, flemmy mouths and slight wheezing. They don't look sick, still eating and running around but I'd like to do something before it gets worse. Any help in how to make them better would be grateful
 
Tylan antibiotics is the normal treatment I think. Respiratory infections are nasty in chickens though, because they will never be rid of them and always be contagious. Lookup MG, it even spreads through the eggs. So you must isolate your flock immediately, and consider your options carefully.
 
Ok thank you. I'll get some tylan and do some research. I have quite a few free range chickens so culling isn't an option but I'll quarantine asap and figure something out.
