Blue comb wheezing breathing in

[TwoCrows]

When you run your hand down his treachea area, do you feel anything in there?

Is it possible he inhaled something large? Maybe has been chocking, have you checked his throat? If a vets around take him there. Is his crop emptying? Maybe his crop is clogged.

Well praise the Lord he's better!! I checked on him this afternoon (didn't have time this am) and he was pecking at the ground, and I'm like OMG is he eating!? So I had a plum for him and I picked him up and he started eating it! Which he'd had zero interest in any food. Like he forgot how to eat! His comb and wattles are back to red, just a little blue on the tips. No gasping. Tail is up. An occasional cough. I can't believe it! Should I continue VetRx, Amoxicillin and Safeguard?

Yay! So glad for him! Praise the Lord amen! Yes you should continue 3 days after you start seeing symptoms of sickens stop. So glad he is doing better!

@HawkHollarRanch this is fabulous news!!!!
Yes continue with the antibiotics until he can go 3 days with no symptoms. So 7-10-14 days, depending on what day hes on today. Never stop with antibiotics until the bacteria is dead, too soon causes bacteria to build immunity.

Use the safeguard as directed for chickens, .2 ml per pound of bird orally once a day for 5 days.

When all these treatments are finished, offer up probiotics every day for one week.

Keep us posted and give him a big hug for us!

@HawkHollarRanch How is your boy doing?

He's doing good! I finished the 5 days of dewormer. Still doing the antibiotics. He still has a bit of blue on the tips of his comb. And he does occasionally shake his head in an unusual way. (Like when you have water in your ears.) I'm still keeping him quarantined for maybe another week. But he's eating and drinking well. Thank you for checking! ♥
