Breathing heavy and loudly

[mustang56]

Any help would be greatly appreciated...!!
This is what my 6 month silkie rooster started doing this morning...
just out of the blue. There was nothing wrong with him last night.

This is only a video of someone else's bird not mine.......!!
Mine is a rooster....

Every time she makes that noise her backside strains. Check her abdomen for an egg.

Its not a silkie and i don't think its a rooster.

Silly question but is he wheezing or maybe just learning to crow? Mine sounded like that hen in the video but was just starting to crow...please don't get mad I'm just clarifying to try an d help

If it is wheezing it can be caused by a number of things ...parasites including worms , bacterial, and possibly fungal infections
is he still eating and drinking normal?

 

[mustang56]

yes he is eating good and drinking and walking around as if nothing is wrong.....
but he is constantly almost non stop making that wheezing noise.
It's been since about 7 am , so it's been about 5 hrs.
Every once in awhile he will stop being so loud for about 5 minutes....
Thanks for your help... =)
