I'll put her back then! I have some VetRx on hand do you think that would help at all?
I am not familiar with Vetrx...from what I gather it is nothing more than a Vick's Vab-o-rub type thing.

Is it dusty in your brooder?


I am wondering if you might have been sold sick chicks. :(
Could be the beginning symptoms of MG.
Does your feed store carry antibiotics such as Tylan?

That's what my girlfriend said as well. I went there last nihjt and they didn't have antibiotics, only VetRx
 
I have used VetRx on both adults and chicks with the sniffles and sneezing not due to dust in the run. I believe there's a dosing on the bottle or package for it. If not, you can probably find it online. I can't remember, it was back in Feb that I used it last. Gave it to one of my chicks whose eyes were crusted over and sneezing a lot. He got it for several days until he stopped acting so lethargic and his eyes cleared up. Give it a shot!

Since last night I've been putting a bit on her head/under wings and in the water. It also says to drop some into their mouth at night but I didnt want to risk over medicating her and making it worse. Did you use the dropper when you gave it to your chicks?
 
Good! I noticed one sneezing so I'm keeping a close eye on her

Well I looked closer and it seems worse than I thought. I seperated her just incase. Constant sneezing, and musucy eyes. This is the first chick to show these symptoms

Do you have a video of her? If not, some photos of the eyes.
Is she still sneezing constantly?
Any mucous coming from the nostrils?

If she has runny eyes, you need to try to keep them cleaned out - flush with saline, remove any mucous and apply an ophthalmic ointment.
There can be many causes of the symptoms you describe - respiratory illness, molds and poor ventilation are a few.
I would try the VetRx, follow the directions in the leaflet or you can find them online.

If she has a respiratory illness, the others have already been exposed. I would only separate her if she becomes lethargic, won't eat/drink or is being picked on.
