Was he in an accident? Why is he covered in blucote?
Is there wounds to his neck/throat area?
It could be a ruptured air sac or sone inflammation on the airpipe

Yess there was I was at work I came back and they got out of their brooder and out like some rascals my other big hens got them cause the mother didn’t want to take care of them he was hurt he wasn’t acting like this before Tho it’s been a while I know they say they don’t show signs till later on but I’m still sorta confused cause he was acting just find them one day my fiancé comes in yelling saying he’s dying and I’m thinking it’s just a respiratory issue like sickness but he’s like gasping for air and sorts like saliva coming out it’s mouth kinda sad cause I though it was perfect after that first incident he wasn’t the only one to get hurt too

Rinse the blue coat off and get pictures of the wound, there's likely swelling and you need to see if there's any holes in the neck.
Just keep him calm and warm, give him sugar water and treat for shock.

Ok thank you will do that tomorrow morning I got two jobs hopefully my fiancé can do it she’s been with him all day cuddling so he feels better and tomorrow we can get that figured out but if anyone still knows anything I would love any feedback also how would you treat for shock yourself?
