HELP what to do when chicken aspirates???

[Annabellaa]

hello my hen just aspirated medication and now she is gurgling when she breathes what can I do??

Context: she wasn’t doing well so I have been giving her 2ml of poultry cell and it has been helping her. Had someone hold her today when I gave her some and I turned around for a second, turned back and they had flipped her over right after I gave the medication, she aspirated it and now gurgles very loudly when she breathes and is very laboured. Is there anything I can do??

I'm sorry this has happened, I don't think there's much you can do.

Hopefully this will resolve in a day or so.

I'd keep her in or where she can be calm so she's not having to breath heavily. She may absorb it just fine.
