My 6 month old ameracauna, daisy, has a lot of mucus in her mouth. I live in Arizona, where it's 110 everyday, so it's normal for all of the chickens to pant with their mouths wide open. This morning I noticed that daisy was not panting, sometimes sitting down and closing her eyes. Then I noticed that she is oddly stretching her neck and shaking her head while making a gurgling sound. I brought her inside and im giving her water, but everyone she drinks she stretches her neck again. It kind of looks like she's trying to drink the mucus in her mouth. When she breathes through her nose it sounds pretty normal, but she can't open her mouth without doing that weird thing. It looks like she wants to eat and drink, and scratch around, but every time she tries she just shakes her neck and stretches her head and then sits down with her eyes closed. No discharge out of the eyes or nose. Please let me know if you have any ideas of what this could be so I can help Daisy!!
