I am glad for this post as I am experiencing the same problem. I thought I prepared the best I could. The 3 new bantam pullets I purchased were quarantined for 3 weeks and a weekend and all seemed ok. My vet said 3 weeks quarantine, no other meds were necessary. They had been in my garage and well tended and watched and everything seemed fine, but about 3 weeks after the birds were together, the new ones started to seem a little "sneezy". I didn't think there was much to be done, since now all the birds had been together for a while. The 3 new ones seem to be doing ok now, but now some of my other birds seem somewhat "sneezy" as well. Hopefully all will recover with no major problems. I am going to try some Vet Rx and I'll think about antibiotics, although, I tend to be sparing on antibiotics in general. However, the weather here at the moment is brutal and it is not scheduled to change for a while, so I may opt for a bit more aggressive treatment.
Good luck to you and I thank you for sharing your story, as you have helped me as well.
