My Rooster is sneezing with discharge from his beak? Help

[Sandy117]

My rooster has been sneezing alot. His eye is swollen and there is discharge from his beak. He also has been staring into space. Does any one know what this could be? My hens have now started sneezing and I'm getting concerned. Thanks

If it's not environmental such as mold or fungus spores from damp bedding causing the symptoms you described; you could be dealing with a respiratory disease spreading through your flock. Here's a link to respiratory diseases in poultry. I recommend that you read about Infectious Bronchitis, Infectious Coryza, and Mycoplasma Gallisepticum (MG.)

Thank you. While their bedding is not really damp and I do clean the coop on a monthly basis, the area of their pen is pretty wet because we've had quite a bit of rain. I will read those links and try clearing the area to allow more sun in. Thanks again
