2 month old sneezing with runny nose

[Cluck2013]

Sorry to hear your chicks are having problems.

Could you give us some more info? Are there any other respiratory-related signs like face edema, wheezing, tail bobbing, or rattled breathing, or is it just the runny nose and sneezing your seeing here?

Could you upload a video of the chicks sneezing to a video platform like Youtube or Vimeo, then copy/paste the link here? A picture of their poop?

Sneezing and runny nose could be an environmental issue such as lack of adequate ventilation in their pen, dusty bedding, allergies, or sometimes you'll get a bag of feed that is too powdery and ends up irritating their respiratory system.

What's your setup like, could you tell us more about that?

If you're able to cross off the possibility of it being an environmental factor, I'd move on to the possibility that they might have a respiratory infection, commons one might be infectious bronchitis, MG, coryza, etc.

Instead of taking a "guess' of which one they might have and treating them with a broad antibiotic, you could send a few tracheal swabs into your state veterinary lab, or send them a national lab like Zoolgix for testing. That way, you know what you're dealing with and can treat with an antibiotic that is best used for that specific disease.

Most respiratory diseases you going to see with chicks are going to cause them to be carriers they're whole life. If you don't feel like treating with antibiotics, some people will cull the flock.

Thanks for your help! I'm going to try to get them tested through my state.
