Hi everyone. Went out to the coop today and noticed that my nine-month-old buff Orpington was making And odd noise that sounded like a cry. Then I heard what I thought were a few sneezes. I’ve never heard this before and she is eating treats but looks distressed. There are no bubbles coming out of her nose. Thoughts? Thank you!
 
Copy and paste this and search it up on YT:
"
HELP! Strange Sounds from our Hen, Is this a normal Chicken Sound?"

Watch until a pop-up comes up and click it. It should say something about how they fixed the problem.
 
That's either an upper respiratory infection or Infectious Bronchitis. Have you taken your chickens anywhere where there were other chickens or did you go anywhere recently where chickens are kept?
You could use Vetrx Poultry Aid to help treat the symptoms but it won't cure it. Antibiotics would be best so you could get Tylan at Tractor Supply but you need to research the dosage for chickens. It would be best to see a vet.
You can see Dr. Pol (a famous vet) treat a chicken with upper respiratory (the thing the woman shows him is Vetrx Poultry Aid).
