Help! What's wrong with her?

[Peas4Ducks]

I don't know, i was hoping you guys here could tell me. This is my first flock of my own and we haven't had any health issues until now.

I am a fairly new chicken keeper myself, so unfortunately I don’t have a lot of first hand to experience to rely on. Hopefully some of the people @Jeanw tagged will step in.
But the gasping with a lack of audible respiratory trouble seems like gapeworm to me. This article should be helpful.

Also, how old is she?

Also, how old is she?

She is 14, almost 15, months

Will it hurt to treat it as gapeworm anyways, if it ends up not being? I kinda wanna run to tractor supply now with no answers, lol.

I don’t think it would hurt according to this thread.

I was about to say, if she were my chicken I would probably go ahead and purchase the dewormer. I would get some Sav a Chick or Nutri-Drench as well, if you don’t already have it.

I see in the article it says to treat the flock if gapeworm is suspected

After reading through that thread, it seems like @Isaac 0 might have some insight based on the pictures and video as well.

Im off to tractor supply. I hope it isnt a wasted trip because i coupdnt seem to find any poultry medications on their online website, other than a pill form vitamin.

Hmm, maybe call and ask first?
