Hello! One of my chickens is doing a really weird sound that the other are not making. I uploaded a video for you to hear.

Is it because it's a roo? It's about 3 months old and a half and it's a light sussex! :)...
I'm so sorry for your bird. I can't believe how I love these fluffy things. I wouldn't want to loose any of mine that's for sure.
I asked the breeder for some medication, I'm waiting for her answer.
News: The little Ameraucana seems much healthier today. She actually walked out by herself when...
Unfortunately not. Ordering from Amazon would cost me 200$ and express shiping would still be almost 2 weeks. My only option is Jeffers and it would cost me like 85$.
Farm medications aren't allowed for sale in Canada's shops it seems. You need to go through the vet.
I also don't know any...
I just put a link as a closeup as edit. Really a weird poop.
I'm ordering some on internet right now as there is none fore sale in Canada. Vet needs to prescribe it. I unfortunately can't affort it right now and have yet to hear about a farm vet around here. I'm searching though.
Shipping will...
Thank you so much Eggcessive. I will order Tylan 50 by internet if they don't have it here.
She just pooped after 4 hours. This doesn't look good... Here's a pic of the poop:

I will for sure tomorrow morning. And will also look for the medications mentioned earlier.
So that's why! Because her head wasn't that big yesterday. I'm glad it's not the swollen head syndrome... It is really her feathers.
I got 3 days-old chicks from the same breeder that got me the sick...
I forgot to mention this but her head feathers are also much more puffy than usual. Her head isn't usually that big.
Energy like she's about the 5/10 of her self.
I'm sorry, what is a EE? If it's the new bird yes she has an eye infection.
I read a lot about chicken diseases since 4 days and I think it's MG.
I'll try to see if my area has Tylan tomorrow when shops are open. I've heard of that before. Otherwise I'll import some from the US even if it...
Everything is closed today because of an holiday so I'll try to get some tomorrow. There's not much medications you can buy freely in Canada, at least in my area. I also don't have a lot of money... I'll see if I can gather some to pay for a vet. I took notes of what you guys are saying. Thank...
She's 3 months old. Electrolytes? Would it work?
There's no farm vets around where I live but I'll try to contact people to see if I couls find one. If I want to give her antibiotics I'm forced to find one and a prescription uh? Or do you have any recommendations? I'll give her some garlic...

Thank you so much for all the answers. I'm reading them right now.
Hello,
I need help please.
4 days ago I brought home a diseased young chick home without knowing. My guess is she has MG. Runny nose and infection in the eye.
The breeder said all her chickebs have it and that it's ''just a cold'' that doesn't need medication. I don't think she is right...
A newcommer in my flock had the exact same thing. Everything is pointing out to Coryza or MG...
I wish for the both of us that it's not Coryza at the very least.
I think you're supposed to quarantine the sick one from the others and disinfect everything in the coop! While you wait for...
They say it can't cured though, and chickens will be carrier for life :'( I don't want all my chickens to be sick, forever...
Thank you for your link.
I'm taking the poor thing back tomorrow. I just pray that the other ones won't get it. They were in exposure for 24 hours. Feeders, waters and...
Hello guys,
I've had my flock since 3 months and took well care of them. I pet them everyday for hours at a time. They're basically my flock of cats to me.
I brought a newcommer home yesterday. I made a big mistake. I was trusting the raiser and I didn't know about infectious chicken diseases...
Thanks. I'll be cleaning her up today. I hope it'll eases it for her.
I unfortunately don't have the space to separate them with a wire. I put branches and tall herbs to make her a hiding spot though.
The older chicks are avoiding to enter the coop altogether when she's in here. They don't...
Good morning!
I brought a new baby home yesterday. My guess is she's about 2 months old.
Half of the flock went pretty hard on her since they're bigger (3 months olds). I had to stop it because it was getting really violent.
The fact that she stenches the other farm and has loads of feces on...
