sneeze

Yes, I am back from a long time, but now it is getting colder since it is september. My favorite chicken is sneezing and also my other chickens as well, I'm not sure why they're sneezing its probably the cold. But maybe there are other reasons.

Hello Friendly Community, I have an issue with another one of my chicks. First time owner, 6 Silkies, 4 weeks old, in a cardboard brooder at home. He is my favorite, and I noticed 2 sneezes yesterday. Today morning, he sneezes every few minutes. He eats, scratches, maybe is a little bit active...

I have 3 one week old baby chicks and I noticed when they eat their starter crumbles, they sneeze. Usually they don't like to eat the large pieces so I break them a little or wet the feed just to make it easier for them. Cause if they are large dry pieces they don't eat it as much. I have VetRx...

I recently picked up 3 Silkies from a local farm that was downsizing. She was practically giving them away and they're very difficult to find in my area. I've kept them separate from my small flock in that: - My chicken coop is built into my garage. The bottom half is enclosed by plywood but the...

I've heard my chickens sneeze before, maybe once or twice. But we have a chicken who sneezes, no joke, 7+ times in a row. Should I be concerned? p.s. did I post this in the right place?

Hello Everyone! I just have a quick question, I put my 8 chicks (6-7weeks old) out in their coop this weekend. While they were digging around in the run I noticed they were sneezing? Chickens sneeze? LoL :p well anyway, it’s not a lot but between the 8 of them it’s frequent. And not just one is...

Hello! I am new to all this. I was gifted my very first 2 chicks on May 17th. I was told they were 6 weeks old and were both road-island red hens. We were unprepared to say the least, we had nothing for them at all. So off we went to the store to try to get them set up. They are now in a rabbit...

Help. One of my hens is making a strange noise like a coughing. She is eating fine and walks around but since a couple of days ago, she started to have this cough or sneeze every 10 to 20 seconds. She does it constantly

Hi, All. This morning, Stella, a 16-month old silver appleyard duck, was making a sound somewhat like sneezing. She has been in good health with no other issues. It rained heavily last night, but nothing else was out of the ordinary. This evening, she was still doing it periodically, but she...

(Reposted) Hello! I have a flock of 8 beautiful mixed breed chicks. I originally had just 4 bantam breeds (2 brown old english and 2 black ones) but then my father got 4 more regular sized chickens from a coworker of his, all of whom are mixed kinds. We have had them for 4 days and I’ve noticed...

Today my ducks turned two weeks old! One of them is noticably larger than the other two and it looks like she has some trouble walking. She takes a few steps and drops back down. I was adding Brewers yeast to their food but switched to a crushed tablet of niacin. I've gone back to the yeast...

First post from long-time lurkers. We bought a couple of scrawny chickens from a dodgy back yard breeder. Both had pretty pale combs, patchy feathers. One had a runny nose and would cough/sneeze. Months later and one of them, the one without the runny nose, is very healthy - plenty of weight...

Hi my loves, Im back and a bit anxious. Edit to add: After researching I did see that those symptoms are present in Gapeworms, but like I said, she is only kept indoors, alone, in a sterile brooder, so how would she have gotten gapeworms? It says they get it from infected feces of earthworms...

I've posted on facebook asking for advice on one of my particularly large Cochin hens. I bought her as a novice chicken owner, she's just over a year old. I think, now, after research that she once suffered from a Pendulous Crop that won't ever fully be normal - despite my efforts to keep her...

About 3-4 months ago my Buff Silkie Bantam, Puff, started making this strange Screeching/Sneezing/Howling noise every so often for no reason. I didn't take it very seriously back then, as it was few and far between. At first. After about 1 month of this, it started to get louder and more common...

This is Sugar loaf! i got her a few days ago, her beak has been trimmed I think it’s because she was a factory hen. But whenever she eats feed or something she does a little sneeze. I think it’s because her beak is too short and it gets in her nose but I’m not sure. Otherwise she’s a happy chicken.

Hi all, I have one chicken in my flock of 17 chickens and a rooster, who has developed a cough. It's almost like a hiccup, or a tiny little sneeze that happens constantly. So far no runny nose - but she tends to be the outcast chicken in the coop and I'm wondering if it is stress related. No...

Hey Everyone! So, being the chicken mama I am, I’m worried. I’ve got 2, 3 month 22 day old barred rocks. I had more of many different breeds, but the neighbors dog ended that. Anyways, one of my girls had a sneeze. It is so small that I wouldn’t have noticed it if her head didn’t bob when it...

Last night my husband & I noticed that one of our birds was breathing noisily. This morning a number of my girls are coughing & sneezing but otherwise are doing fine. I'm more concerned about my Delaware who is also lethargic & not interested in treats. Help!

So I'm a little worried as a new chicken owner. I have 2 55 flowery hens that my friend raised as chicks and are doing great and laying, so naturally I wanted more chickens! Not being set up well to raise chicks indoors, I ordered 3 started pullets from McMurray hatchery that range from 15...
