My wife and I are new to raising chickens and just got 3 chicks on October. They are now 3.5 months old. Today we noticed one moaning or crying and it was kind of coughing or something. When we when over to see what was going on, it got up and started eating, and walking around as usual but still was making the noises. Tonight they are in the coop as usual and we can still hear her. My wife says it sounds like a breathing problem, but I think she is just kind of crying. Doesn't seem to be coughing any more though. We have done everything we are suppose to: chick food, light at night, plenty of clean water, etc. We didn't do any vaccinations or anything though because the feed store said they don't do anything. We live in Woodland, CA, near Sacramento. Any input would be appreciated. ~Thanks,
