Chicken yeast infection

[ClbkssR]

Hello I have 2 chickens that both have white sticky bottoms. Their breathing is very loud. Sounds like they are stuffy. I'm thinking they have yeast infections. I'm pretty positive they may have drank some spoiled water, from all the rain we had. I have given both my girls a warm bath in epson salt. I have a diffuser running in their coop with rosemary oil to help their breathing. I am worried about their breathing, when i look up chicken yeast infection it does say that could by a symptom. How do I treat their yeast infection? I seen u can give them monistat cream? Is that true?
Please help, I'm a new chicken owner not really sure what I should do. Thanks in advance...my hens are 7 months old

Yes, they can be given monostat. I'd remove the diffuser, xchickens can be highly sensitive to compounds.

Okay thanks for letting me know, I thought I read somewhere that it was okay. But I'll remove it.
Do I given them the oral monistat or just the cream?

Monistat comes in a cream or a suppository. If using the cream use 1/2 inch given orally twice a day. If using the suppository it is 1/3 twice a day given orally.

When u say orally do you mean put it in the chickens mouth?

Yes, it is given into the beak to swallow. Here is a link about crop problems some of which can be fungal or yeast where she says to give it orally:
