I have an 18 month old hen that has developed a little wheeze/ hoarseness. She is eating well and seems ok. Her comb is nice and red with no nasal or eye discharge. I isolated her yesterday (she is currently staying on our sun porch in a crate) and using VetRx externally. I had to change the straw I was using because Tractor Supply was out and it was very dusty and I found some very tiny insect eggs in it. I noticed her wheeze yesterday and had used the other straw twice. I cleaned out the coops and replaced the straw. I'm hoping that it is related to the straw. Any suggestions as to what it could be and how to best treat the wheeze?
