A vaporizer can help if you have one. A little peppermint oil in the water can ease the coughing. It's not a cure, but it can make it easier on her.

I just ordered a cool mist vaporizer from Amazon and got it today. My doctor recommended it because I have a problem with mucous at night interfering with my breathing. He said it would thin it out. I've been wanting to have a mister on hand should any chicken have a respiratory issue, and it...

Her color looks good. Is there any sign of the comb going dark on the edges? As long as the comb stays red, she's getting enough oxygen. But she might breathe more comfortably if she had a cool mist vaporizer or mister moistening the air she breathes. It will thin the mucous out so it drains...

It sounds like she has an eating habit that may cause this. For now, I suggest just watching and making note when she eats and if the symptoms quickly follow, establishing a pattern. Note also how long it takes the symptom to stop after they started.

Her color is good, so if this is a respiratory disorder, it's upper, not pulmonary. It may have other causes. Have you looked deep into her throat with a flash light to see if you see worms? Is her mouth and throat pink and clean or do you see white or yellow scum in there? Have you checked her...
