Thank you so much for responding! So he probably wonāt die? Also Can I put him back in the coop with the other chickens after I have given him antibiotics?Yes, I would agree with @KingB that it could possibly be mycoplasma gallisepticum or MG. It is fairly common in some flocks. It is a lifelong disease and can make survivors carriers. Symptoms may get better with an oral antibiotic such as Tylosin, doxycycline, oxytetracycline, or Denagard. I would close the flock to new birds since the others may also be carriers. Here is where to get antibiotics:

If it is MG, the expectation is that the other chickens would also get the disease. But they could already have it if he has it.Thank you so much for responding! So he probably wonāt die? Also Can I put him back in the coop with the other chickens after I have given him antibiotics?
What should I do? Does he have to live in isolation forever?If it is MG, the expectation is that the other chickens would also get the disease. But they could already have it if he has it.

Well step 1 is treating him with antibiotics and keeping an eye on your other birds for signs of sickness. And we can figure out step 2 later.What should I do? Does he have to live in isolation forever?
He is eating and drinking normally and his poop is fine as wellIs he eating and drinking well? Is the frothy eye the only symptom?
