Hen wheezing when breathing-breathing out of mouth I need help

[My chicken is off balance]

Your very welcome,i also heard that vetrx is very good with any respiratory issues,but it can be hard to get your hands on if you don’t live in the us like I do,so if you live in the us it can be a good idea to have it on hand like a first aid kit with electrolyteshope the hen will be alright

We do have vetrx and she is doing much much better so thank you so so much god bless you

Maybe a video would help,make sure she is not dehydrated and remember to keep Calm,most of the time it’s really not that serious

Hi there, looking for some advice please? My little boy fell on top of our lovely 10 month hen, we've isolated her from the flock, she's been wheezy and grasping for air when she tries to move. Any advice on what it could be?

She's managed to eat and drink is resting for the night in my office. The farmer and vet says just to keep her warm and stable, anyone any experience with such injuries my heart is aching for her.

Do you feel any air beneath her skin around her neck, chest or sides? Is she able to stand and walk normally? Is she breathing with her beak open? Videos uploaded to YouTube or similar site with a link posted here are sometimes helpful. She probably was very scared and possibly in shock at first. I would just continue to observe her behavior and make sure that she is taking food and water, passing droppings, and able to walk okay.

Thank you for your reply, yeah she was able to stand ok and passed a large dropping I was hand feeding her all day, then she ate a little which hopefully was positive. I examined all around her chest and ribs as anticipated potential damage to her air sac or ribs. There was no obvious signs of broken ribs or inflated sac. It's the rapid breathing and wheezing that's been causing concern.
