MysteryChicken's, Flock.

No rush! Just curious if it resembles coryza enough that I could have misdiagnosed my chickens. Mine are mostly over it but the barn chickens have gotten it now and they were the last ones to show symptoms so I was curious if they were less susceptible. My EEs and Buckeyes have been remarkably resilient.

In total it's about 6-7 birds within my flock.
1 Easter Egger(Separate coop), 5 OEGBs, 2 Project Survival birds.

Here's a video from 2 years ago when the birds got struck with LPAI first time. Yes title is Unknown Illness, but that's just what I called it at that time.
Note his comb, & wattles are abit purple, & his head motion? He just doesn't have the facial swelling.

Oh very interesting. None of mine have held their heads like that and their combs all seem fine except for the rooster who has some pecking wounds from fighting with the other one and probably a little frost bite. His comb didn’t look great when I got him but the color is good. I’ve dealt with coryza before so I was pretty confident about it but I haven’t dealt with anything else contagious so it’s possible I was wrong. Seems unlikely after watching this video though.
 
Yep, it's certainly Flu my birds have. Tiny Terror my OEGB rooster has purple on his comb, & looking abit sad. But other then that he's not terrible. He only has a touch of swelling on one eye, barely noticeable though.
Since this is a virus, it must run it's course as there's no treatment.

Each individual bird that has it has varying degrees of the symptoms, at least not all at once though.
