Is this coryza? If so I need some help treating it correctly So this is my black silkie “Smokey” she currently has severe wry neck which I’m treating but now I need help with whatever is up with her eyes and her lethargically behavior, however she is eating and drinking with my help and is in a warm place in my house but sleeps a lot until I take her out to help her…….for her wry neck she is being treated with goat paste selenium and vitamin E, and in her water there’s vetryx for the respiratory infection, probiotics/electrolytes & apple cider vinegar. Her feed is the dumor layer, with oyster shells and rooster booster vitamin feed for toppings.

But my 2nd concern is she is isolated in a big bin in a big room but however I do have 10week old silkie chicks in a brooder but can’t access Smokey or get anywhere near her, but I don’t want this spreading to my chicks and I also have 3 parrots on the other side of the room but however they’re away from all the chickens…..will my chicks and parrots be okay?

I don’t hear alot of parrots getting coryza but I’m more concerned about my 10week old chicks but again they are separate away from Smokey

How long has she been quarentined in the room? Are any of your outside birds showing symptoms?
Any new birds?
Have you been also giving B complex? Selenium and vit e aren't effective without b complex.

All of my other birds are fine, no symptoms or anything
And she has been in my room for over a week now, slight improvement just very sleepy……..and the only new birds are my silkie chicks but there only 10 weeks and have been and are still in the house since it’s very cold out.

And pretty sure the goat paste has vitamin b complex in it and if not I’ll order some
 
Thiamine (B1) is the b vitamin that is important in wry neck treatment, and most vitamin supplements have some. Is there a bad odor from the face? The right eye looks milky like it might be blinded and the left looks gray with an inflamed rim. Does she see okay? Does she have eye bubbles, drainage or discharge from the eye? Is she sneezing or gasping, or shaking her head? Have you added any new birds to your flock recently or had any visitors with chickens who might have brought in coryza?

No bad Oder, and she can see okay yes kuz when I give her water and food she drinks and eats right away…..sometimes when she pecks she does miss due to the wry neck.

Before yes she had bubbly eyes and her eyes stuck closed and I kept opening them with warm water and didn’t really think much as I thought it was a cold but then few days after I knew something was wrong so I brought her in. And yes she is sneezing ( not a lot ) but here and there and she and gasping yes, but I gave her vetryx and now she’s not gasping as much anymore. And no new birds to my flock but my baby chicks but there still in the house and we’re never near my big silkies at all

Where did the chicks come from?
 
Tylosin powder in the water can help if she has MG. That might be more likely than coryza, since it causes a bad odor. I would also rinse her eyes twice a day with saline or an eye wash, and follow that with plain Neosporin ointment twice a day.

And where can I find Tylosin powder? Can I find that on Amazon? And yes I also have neosporin, so can neosporin go directly in the eye or with the saline?
