More info is needed.
Ages?
Diarrhea?
Sneezing, runny eyes, wheezing?
What do they eat?
How long since you noticed this behavior?
Have you brought in any new birds recently?

The maline is 5 weeks old and the broiler is about 7 weeks
And yeah the make noise from the inside i think its wheezing and another bird with runny nose and u can hear his chest when breathing and his mouth opens alot but hes running around

Have they gotten into anything rotten, poisonous, spoiled feed, possibly tainted?

Are they dehydrated?
Do they have fresh water available? Chickens can become dehydrated in just a few hours if water supply is gone.

I’d bring them inside for observation this afternoon.
That way you can see if they are pooping normally.

Put electrolytes in their water.
Try to tempt them to eat a bit of scrambled or hard boiled eggs.
Give vitamins if you have them (polyvisol without iron for human infants works great)

I call the feed atore for some antibiotics or medications but they want the name and i dont know do u think i should give them medication and if yes what are the names
 
Coccidiosis is very very common with this age.
It is safe enough to go ahead and treat them all with Corid, even it that is not the problem...and the easy thing to try first.
It will not harm them if they don't have coccidiosis and it could save their live if they do have it.
I would NOT recommend using any antibiotic right now.
Corid is not an antibiotic.



ETA.
I am just seeing the edit in the OP.
It may not be coccidiosis, sorry.

This sounds like a respiratory disease.
Antibiotics, like Tylan, could help with symptoms.
