Gape worm or respiratory problems? *update* AND impacted crop?

[HeatherTheMommy]

Someone just pooped this weird poop on the floor also.

Are they still sneezing? How frequent are the sneezes?

It's hard to tell about the poop, but it could be Cocci or intestinal shedding.
You can treat Cocci with Corid
Dosage us 1 1/2 teaspoons Corid powder per gallon or 2 teaspoons of 9.6% Corid liquid per gallon
Give for 5-7 days - make sure this is the ONLY water available during that time period. Mix a fresh batch at least once a day.

I'm not noticing as much sneezing today and the one who was wheezing I'm not noticing her wheezing today. I will go sit and watch them for a bit once i shower. I dont see any discharge or swollen eyes. Should i start off by treating withwith corid? Right now i just have nutri drench in their wayer.

 

[Wyorp Rock]

Treating with Corid won't hurt if you suspect they have Cocci.

 

[HeatherTheMommy]

I'm not sure what i suspect lmao because they are all acting ok. I was going to go to tractor supply later and get whatever
I need for treatment. Not sure what to do though. I already have some corid on hand tho

 

[Wyorp Rock]

If you have Corid on hand that is all you need.
If they are acting normal, eating drinking and being chicks, you may want to wait and see.
Intestinal shedding can look a little "off" but is normal.

Watch for any signs of lethargic, puffed up behavior this would be an indication your little ones are feeling well.

You have a bunch of cuties!

 

[HeatherTheMommy]

So could the sneezing/wheezing be a fluke?

 

[Wyorp Rock]

It depends on how much sneezing is going on.
Lots of sneezing with mucous, watery eyes, coughing, etc. is a concern.
Chicks (and chickens) will sneeze occasionally from dust, dander, food crumbles, etc.
If you have a video of them and how they act/sneeze sound that may be helpful.

 

[HeatherTheMommy]

Not noticing much sneezing but the one who was wheezing seems to have a super full crop???? What should i do or is this normal?
