Mouth breathing

[Tanner123]

*update*

I think this is a respiratory infection. The first hen I posted about stopped breathing weird but now my other hen has bubbly eyes. I have 4 chicks, should I treat the whole flock with tiaguard? Even the chicks?

Bubbly/foamy eye sounds like MG. MG is very contagious to other birds. Its easily passed from wild birds to your flock. Once a bird gets MG its always a carrier of it. Some birds have MG and dont show symptoms their whole life. How old are the 4 chicks? Im assuming they have been exposed to the birds that are showing symptoms?

VetRx is like Vick’s vaporub for chickens. It can help them breathe a little easier at night but it won’t cure anything. I rub it on my hands to warm it up then rub it under their wings where they tuck their heads to sleep at night. You can rub it on their nares as well but if they’re congested you’ll get boogers on your hands.
