Hi all, I went out to check in on my girls this morning and my favorite BO was laying down making a strange noise. After observing her for a bit it seems to be a hen's version of wheezing with almost every breath with the occasional cough which sounds like a yell or the beginning of a crow, were she a roo. She has mucus coming from one of her nostrils and is lethargic. I've isolated her and gave her some scrambled eggs, which she immediately went to town on. I've never heard of chickens getting colds, but this looks like some sort of respiratory issue. Any ideas, advice, remedies?
