Odd sounds

Yes, you can get testing from your vet if they treat chickens. Your state poultry lab may help you get tested, or you can also use a commercial lab such as Zoologix to get tested. Tylan can treat MG, but if it is caspused by coryza it may be treated with sulfa antibiotics. A virus, such as ILT or infectious bronchitis, would not respond to antibiotics, but the disease would run it’s course over weeks or more. If you treat with Tylan and it helps, then that is probably MG. Here is a good article to read about MG, and another which lists all 4 of the common respiratory diseases above:
