There are a few things you can try for sneezing and runny nose: I'll give you several ideas

Some people use Vet Rx. You can give them a few drops into their throats, even put a dab under each wing.

There's also a product called Denegard that works well. Goes into the drinking water and it's very bitter so make sure you put some sugar in the water.

Tylan is the very best thing, in my opinion. Very strong antibiotic that you put into their drinking water. Really works well.

Good luck to you!

i have tylan been giving to my young silkie hens cuz they r not laying yet but the others r so i was just wondering if i put tylan 50 in their water how long could we not eat the eggs and can i atleast still hatch them? how much should i put in a gallon and for how long?
