Good morning, all, and Happy Holidays!
My one of my eight bantams (7 months old) has a cough/sneeze that seems to be getting worse. No other symptoms, she is eating and drinking as usual. I keep the coop clean (they were confined to the coop for 5 days because it was so frigid outside) and they have a large run.
I am new to chicks this year (total smitten, BTW), and from what I read, I may have to give her antibiotics. Is that the only way to go here? I don't dare give an injection. Are there other options?
Please help - these forums have proven very helpful to me in the past! Thanks so much.
