First noticed dec 28th. Slight occasional kind of cough. Breathing was slightly labored. Consulted with vet. Treated Immediately with Tylan Soluble, no change after a week of use, coughing got worse/more frequent. Never a discharge or mucous, good color in wattles. Wormed with Safeguard and Advantage Multi due to suspected Gape Worm. Nothing has helped. I have visually inspected her mouth when first suspecting gapeworms and saw nothing. Suspecting foreign body now.. not sure what else to suspect.
I did inspect her mouth again a few minutes ago and there is alot of brown in there that wasnt there a few days ago and an odor it should not have. Crop is empty, trachea is very solid ( firm/on the hard side). I am going to try to get her into the vet today. I have tried giving her soft food and she goes at it eagerly but after a bite or 2 shakes her head and wipes her beak like she is trying to clear it.
Any suggestions I can take to the vet would be greatly appreciated.
