gasping

Wheezing Hi-new her and inserted a link above to a video of my wheezing/gasping chick. She’s 9 weeks old. Indoors for now until the weather is warmer. 2 days ago had a loud wheezing and appeared to be gasping. She is not as active as normal. She tries to eat but I think it’s bothering her. She...

I have 22, 1 and half week old chicks that are suddenly dying. This past Monday we lost 6 and again 1 tonight. 2 others aren’t looking very good and might pass as well. Symptoms include gaping/gasping. Once the symptoms start it’s not too long before they die. Can anyone help me out? What...

Hi there, Over the past couple of weeks I've noticed a few of my chickens stretching their neck out as though gasping for air. Initially I thought nothing of it as I read that it can often be just rearranging the crop after eating and I'd always noticed it after they'd eaten. Then tonight while...

Little chic is doing this No sound, like there is something-air-in his crop. They get DE in their food, vitamins, probiotics, apple cider vinegar in water. Is eating, drinking. No sourness. Sounds kinda like burps or gas from crop- only a few, not constant. Just had really watery stool. No worms...

One of my hens has had raspy breathing, a little bit of gasping, and runny manure lately. She was sitting on the lowest roost all day except when she went to eat and drink and then roosted up high at night where she usually did. Today she couldn't fly off the roost and I had to bring her to the...

Lost a chicken to similar symptoms two weeks ago, day after a neighborhood dog killed 4 of my birds. The two remaining were stressed. This one is just going down hill fast. Mouth breathing, coughing, one leg seems immobile, and her poop is clear water with bits of green. I have treated for sour...

Hi everyone! So I have a hen that started gasping and whistling for air last night, contacted a vet over the phone and he told me to start her on gapeworm treatment. She's one safeguard equine fenbendazole 10% as of last night. But I was wondering how fast most people see improvement if that's...

My chicken ginger looks to be egg bound and hasn't layer anything in 2 days I've been checking on her but today here health declined severely and now she is gasping for air. I feel like I've tried everything to help her pass the egg but nothing has worked. The reason i think it also could be...

I posted yesterday with a video of my poor lil silkie chick who hatched yesterday morning. She was displaying symptoms of what appeared to be wry neck, or like it had choked or aspirated. Every time she would try to fall asleep she would wake up after a few seconds in a fit like way, walk...

I have five Silkie chicks in a brooder. The bedding is pine shavings and they have a heat plate with easy access to food and water. I was outside doing chicken chores and came inside to one of the chicks lying down beside the heat plate panting. The other chicks are fine and moving around. I...

One of my favorite girls( Becky Lunch) will make a gasping sort of sound when she eats. She seems normal other wise; drinking water, laying healthy looking eggs, normal poo etc. I haven't seen the others do it... Could there be something wrong?

I know there are all sorts of threads on this but looking for help and advice. I had four two week old chicks. One passed Saturday night. That one was eating, drinking, pooping fine but not growing at the same rate. I disinfected everything the next day just in case and hoped it was just a...

Please help! This chick has had several episodes like this. She gasps for air and convulses. Clearly in pain, and sometimes cheeps loudly. She is 4 days old. Lives in a brooder with plenty of ventilation, heat, and pine shavings. This has been happening for a couple days, maybe since she was...

My chicken (hen, barred rock ,10 months old) was making a sneezying/gasping noise. Quick on set. I have isolated her, she’s not making the noise anymore. What could it of been? Her throat was clear. Treatment?

Help! We are new to raising chickens and we have lost 4 baby chicks in less than a week! I don’t know what happened to the first two as it was overnight but the third chick was breathing with her mouth open and shaking her head every few minutes. Poor thing died in my hand. She had only been...

I have a 1.5 year old leghorn that has been acting odd and I can’t figure out what to do next. On 6/23, I saw her extending her neck and gasping twice and then her behavior returned to normal, so I just assumed she had something stuck in her throat and she cleared it. On 6/24, she began...

This is last of my Partridge Cochin, the other two died. All of them suffered from pasty butt and seem to not handle the shipping stress well at all. My son came run in saying the others were trampling this one. When he handed it to me it had a slight click sound to it's breathing, totally...

Hey, My adult duck suddenly started gasping for air half an hour ago, she had some water and she was fine. She was sleeping I heard an unusual sound and I saw her gasping in sleep! Her nares are fine, It doesn’t seem that she has food clogged in her throat, I have no idea what is wrong with her...

My year old silkie Pepper has sour crop for the 3rd time. Today is day 4 but only 18hrs on Nilstat. This morning she aspirated some of the sour liquid that she purged as I picked her up. She's gasping and occasionally coughing/sneezing. I know how bad aspiration can be but is there any hope...

Please help! I successfully treated this duck for ascites for several months, but now she is gasping (pressure on organs?) and all I got out was a blood clot when I tried to drain her this time!
