    Very Confused about My Sneezing Chicks

    This is my third post about my chicks sneezing. It never seems to end. My chicks started sneezing at about 1 week old, and ever since they haven't stopped.

    Mystery Wheeze

    Sick Brahma

    One of my Brahmas, Metrowizard, started making a croaking sound today. It sounds like a respiratory issue. I took her to the vet this morning and they gave me antibiotics for her. I only took her to my local vet, not my avian vet (which is further away), so I wanted to hear what other people...

    Clear Bubbly Eye and Head Shaking

    Help! It's been one thing after another--scratch that, multiple things overlapping for my poor chickens. I just started a de-worming regimen yesterday after evidence of roundworms in a couple poops. I thought the culprit might be my 1.5 y/o EE, who had just started molting, stopped laying, and...
