Constant sneezing yet acts fine

[BirdHead]

It's not dusty or that much that is for my pullet to be constantly sneezing, it can be 5min intervals or 2 between sneezing. She acts normal, eats, drink, scratches, playful. But yet she hasn't quit sneezing since I bought her.. Any ideas to as what it is? Should I just up her vitamins and put antibiotics in her water? I've put dewormer in her water twice since, so I know she ain't got worms, tried looking for bugs couldn't find any but occasionally find flakes on her feathers?

Have you tried treating for infectious bronchitis?

 

[BirdHead]

I am this afternoon.. I sure hope it's not.. Because isn't that genetic? That means she has to be culled

And I think one rooster may have caught it because I see him occasionally sneeze but no where like her, btw she is in the 4-6 month range so IB could be what it is

If she does have it, she will be a carrier, but wait for more info. I would separate her for now. Sometimes heritage breeds just aren't as disease resistant as hybrids. Is that what she is?

 

[BirdHead]

She is a game fowl, so in a sense yes.

And I will be taking her to a vet if I can even find one to get a real diagnosis because I like her, I'd hate to have to get rid of her I've only had her for a month. And was gonna use her apart of a breeding program but it's apparent if it's IBV, she has to be culled. SOB

Exactly how long has this been going on? You said it was since you bought her. When was that?

 

[BirdHead]

I've had her for a month, if that.

I'm going to put her in a fresh newly built stratch/jump pen with some new straw and put antibiotics that I can get ahold of for the next week, if symptoms stay the same, then I should take her to the vet for diagnosis right? Or should I wait two weeks instead? Sorry I never had a bird have respitory issues, that lasted longer then a week or two that is
