Chickens can not catch human colds.

But they can get chicken respiratory illnesses that may look like a cold to humans.

Do you take the chicken to the vet ? Do I put the rooster away from the other chickens it would have to be a dog crate and do I bring him in the garage ? The only way I can catch him would be at night . He is not friendly ... UGH Im so worried
