No new birds, and they are in an enclosed run so very rarely are they exposed to wild birds. I noticed once when she sneezed clear bubble from one of her eyes. I have checked in her throat and couldn’t see anything stuck. I haven’t heard of any bird flu in the area and I don’t have any antibiotics.
She is still wheezing. She’s been closing her eyes a lot too like she doesn’t have the energy to keep them open. She’s tried to eat but it makes it worse. She’s also sneezing now. Her wheezing sounds like a whistle or like she’s trying to scream.
I have a roughly year and a half old chicken. She was fin earlier, but I came to check on my flock and found her wheezing. She was standing with the rest of the flock. When I went near her she immediately let me pick her up, which she usually runs away from me. I noticed her crop felt hard so I...
I have three roosters in my flock with twelve hens. We need to regime the two youngest ones. Dad is Americana and moms are Buff Orpington and Rhode Island Red.
Thank you for all of your help. She is feeling better. Unfortunately, she can’t walk, let alone stand on her own, she makes noise, she’s pooping, she’s eating and drinking regularly and her crop doesn’t feel empty anymore. I don’t know what’s wrong and what to do to help. I brought her up to see...

Ok, we will try that. She made it through the night again. I got her to drink some more water, but not enough. Her comb doesn’t feel as warm as it usually is, so she could be freezing, she is under a flannel towel to keep her warm.
Thankyou, I checked her crop and it seemed empty, her whole breast area feels sort of like deflated, but she feels like her normal weight. Her crop doesn’t feel full, so I tried to give her warm sugar water, I had to pretty much force her to drink it, and she just slumped back down. I don’t know...
I have an Olive Egger hen, about six months old. We have 2 extra roosters that we are trying to get rid off because they keep fighting. I went up to the coop and found my hen Stanislaw under the nesting boxes and not moving. At first I thought that she was just freezing, so I took her inside and...
