My chick suddenly as of yesterday started becoming lethargic, puffed and closing eyes. There is no blood in her poop but she has had some irregular runny poos. Yesterday I noticed she wasn’t hitting the food when pecking.. like leaning to the right and pecking the air. She was on vitamins in her water before this presented. I put her on corid as of yesterday since it seemed to come on quickly. Today she is reaching her neck out to breathe. She isn’t congested and I can’t hear an audible wheeze. Any ideas for a quick treatment. I don’t have access to an avian vet here locally.

Have you been able to cheke if she has anything trapped in her throat?
I have looked with a flashlight and can’t see anything. I have been giving her water with a dropper and she has ate some of a mix of water and chick starter.
 
My chicken looked similar but that was a fungal and I used canesten/clotrimazole
