Chicken breathing with mouth open

[Ellieschickies]

I don’t know much since it’s my first flock, but I was reading about worms the other day, because I’m weird, and one person said if there’s worm overload, a chicken may stretch out it’s neck and pant and maybe choke. Anyone hear or read or see this? Like I said, I read too much.

I’ve just got back from the vet and have got antibiotics to try for them and also a wormer Incase it is gapeworm which I have never heard of until I started googling. Hopefully this will clear it up

What antibiotic did you get?

I was given karidox (doxycycline) for the antibiotics and flubenvet for the wormer

she might have something stuck in her crop, try massaging it and make sure she’s getting lots of water.
