Open mouth breathing and squeaking

[NicHchickens]

I have a hen that is open mouth breathing and making a squeaking/honking noise. Any advice or ideas?

Is it a sneeze? There is a sound called stridor they can make if a small piece of feed is stuck in the airway. Is she making a sound like the hen in the video in post one here:

No it definitely not that. I am trying to figure out how to upload a video of her

It definitely sounds more like the sneeze. I uploaded a video in my gallery, but can't attach it yet

I can’t hear it. Try uploading to YouTube or a similar site with a link posted here.
