5 month old hen sounds sick pale and having breathing problem is what it sounds like. Very hot today

[rbum]

She is inside house after cooling her of. Funny sounds coming from her. Any ideas ?

Do you have a video of how she sounds?

It's hard to know what's going on with your description what's going on. Is she drinking at all, is distressed with her breathing? You may want to inspect inside of her beak to see if there is anything stuck.

Nothing stuck in crop or mouth she's wheezing definitely a breathing problem.

Did she by any chance aspirate water when she was being hydrated from overheating?
Is she lethargic and struggling for breath?

 

[rbum]

Didn't see her aspirated but yes struggling to breath and lethargic

 

[Wyorp Rock]

She is still struggling?
Any other symptoms - mucous from the nostrils, watery/foamy discharge from the eyes, coughing, sneezing?
Has her crop emptied overnight?
Has she started laying eggs yet?

It's so very hard to know what's causing her distress.... breathing difficulties can be from respiratory illness, sometimes crop issues, getting into moldy feed or bedding, ammonia toxicity and reproductive disorders.

Check her crop function, if she is laying eggs - feel her abdomen for any feeling of fluid,swelling or bloat. Do the best you can to get her hydrated, food can come later, but getting water, electrolytes or vitamins into her is important.
