Yo-ha, bro-has! I've got a hen who's wheezing up a storm, and I wanted a take from the community on what it might be.

She's a two-year-old Americana who free ranges for the majority of the day. I was looking around for the source of a bunch of feathers in the front yard (I'm thinking a hawk or something got one of our girls), when I heard her wheezing from inside the dusting coop. My mom caught her and the hen's currently just chilling inside with me.

As far as I can tell, she's just wheezing. Every so often she does sneeze, but not very often at all. I'm thinking it might be gapeworm or dust, as her crop feels normal, her head isn't smelly, she's not discharging anything from her nose and eyes, and in general she's just running around being a wheezy hen. Her poop is rather green and a bit on the runny side, but not super runny.
