I just got my flock of chickens! They all came from the same place.

One of the birds is sneezing, she is super lethargic - she will just stand there and close her eyes. Sometimes she will lay down with her feathers all ruffled. She sat on my lap for a good 20 minutes this morning. She also seems like she gurgles a little after she sneezes. Her crop seems non existent & her feathers look sad around her neck.

What can I give her to help her??

Alright listen closely. I’ve had the same problem. First, treat her with Corid Amprolium. It’s a magical charm. Mix about 1-3 tablespoons to a gallon (depending on how powerful you want it, I usually give 1 tablespoon no matter what) and let her drink that. If she won’t drink it, dip her beak in it occasionally. Bring her inside in a plastic tote or a large cardboard box. Give her bedding, a small feeder and waterer. Give her medicated feed. I had this same problem and my chicken almost died. I gave it Amprolium and secluded it, it did the trick. The only problem after seclusion is re adding it to the flock. Not a big one but alas still a problem. If the issue doesn’t clear up contact a vet.
