    Hen coughing and gurgle sound while breathing

    Thanks for reaching out. She unfortunately ended up coughing up and blood and got much worse. Our vet helped her move on peacefully and we submitted her for a necropsy. I will try to remember to update this thread when we have more answers, in case this thread becomes useful to others later.

    Rooster loss of balance and gasping. Need help!

    Thanks all! Yesterday we went back to using hydrogen peroxide and cleaned up all of the visible gunk we could see around his ears and just in a tiny amount. Also packed his ears with Neosporin. This morning, he was perhaps a little better, his mouth breathing wasn't as large as the night...
