Chick with foamy eye and another wheezing and sneezing

[Tanner123]

My chickens are 11 weeks old and last week I noticed one had a foamy eye. She was acting normal and after doing some reading on here I thought it might be a infection in the eye or nasal cavity. Started vetrx right away in their water and directly under her wings and on her head until I was able to get terramycin. But now I have another one that is wheezing and sneezing. She is acting normal, not mouth breathing, she is eating, drinking, and running around just like the rest. I am putting the vetrx on her as well now. I just ordered the tylan 50 powder from jedds. Is there anything else I should be doing?

Can you post a picture of the eye?Someone else may be able to diagnose the problem.

Here is a couple pictures of the foamy eye. As I was getting these pictures I noticed my other little girls breathing has got worse. Seems like she is struggling to breath and when she sneezes she mouth breaths for a few moments after. Her wheezing is getting louder.

It might be an environmental issue such as inhalation of ammonia fumes from soiled bedding, improper ventilation, dust from dust bathing, pollen, feed dust, mold spores or pesticide use as examples. All of these can be corrected or eliminated.

Another possibility would be Mycoplasma Gallisepticum (MG), bubbles in the eye, wheezing, sneezing, and rales are symptoms of the respiratory disease and is easily transmitted to other birds. Birds are carriers for life if they survive the disease even with treatment.
Treatment for MG is Tylan or Denagard.

how big is your coop and for how many birds, and how much ventilation does it have?

We have 12 chickens in a roughly 300-350sq ft coop and well ventilated.

Ordered the tylan from jedds but wasn't sure how long it would take to get here so just order Aurora tiaguard from Amazon. Says its the same as denegard and should have it tomorrow. Pray she makes it til then

Been putting vetrx in the water and on the 2 that are showing symptoms. Anything else we could do until the other medicine shows up?

Here is the one that is wheezing and struggling to breath. It seems to have gotten worse since last night.
