Breathing Rattle and Sneezing

Will do. Hopefully she recovers, she's a sweetheart so far haha

She's a nice looking hen. I'm not sure what's going on with her.
Keep us posted on how she gets along.

I definitely will! Her crop seems normal, didn't see anything in her mouth but here is the video.

Thanks for the video.
Yes, I would definitely make sure she's drinking the medicated water. If she doesn't seem to be drinking enough, I would syringe some into her a couple of times a day too.

Ok, sounds like a good plan and I'll keep this thread updated.

Almost a month later and she's still got some respiratory issues but still NO other symptoms. I treated with the Tylosin for 1.5 weeks and noticed no improvement/change. I stopped the Tylosin and I've been buying/giving herbs (sage, dill, basil) to go with their feed, and some hard boiled eggs mushed up.
I'm kind of not sure what me next step would be. It's not as bad as when I bought her but I've noticed my entire flock sneezes from time to time now. she appears healthy.
Not sure what to do. The people at the feed store said it could be the smoke. Can smoke cause this type of respiratory issue?

Smoke wouldn't help, but since the Tylosin didn't help, it could be a virus like Infectious Bronchitis, but without testing it would be hard to know.
Does she lay eggs? Are they normal?

No eggs, yet.
