We have a hen about 6 months old and we notice she has tearing eyes with bubbles near her tear ducts and she has a slight runny nose.
We put antibiotic in her water and she has had her shots when we got them from a mail order all the other ones are doing great.
We don't want to lose her and she is like gasping for breath.What to do PLEASE HELP

Sounds like a respiratory infection so you have done the right thing by starting her on antibiotics.

Make sure that you segregate her as it will spread through your flock. Start watching the others for symptoms also.

You can also give her some poly-visol (non-iron) baby vitamins for a boost and a tsp of plain yogurt everyday. That will help to put the good bacteria back in her gut.

Good luck and I'm sorry she's sick!

You can also get terramyicin ointment for her eyes--TSC carries it. It does sound like respiratory. I agree to separate her and keep her on antibiotics for 7-10 days. Good luck!
