    Antibiotic for Respiratory Issues?

    Signs of respiratory issues in two hens, multiple questions!

    I am seeing mixed info online on how to handle respiratory issues with chickens. I currently have two hens that have heavy, wet breathing and occasional sneezing. I have them isolated. I am seeing online to treat them with antibiotics but have also seen that these symptoms can be viral, making...
