Please help

[Chickens4572]

I can like hear my guinea fowl breathing don’t really know how to explain but I don’t know if it’s something bad and I’m concerned she may be having difficulty with breathing or something. Someone please help me and tell me if this is normal and if not please help me on what I should do

I have a video of her breathing and it’s up close to her so it sounds pretty loud, but at the moment when i was taking it she did sound like she was breathing louder. So if someone wants to hear it please tell me how to add it into my thread.

You have to upload the video to YouTube and link it here. @Wyorp Rock @Eggcessive @azygous

Do you only have one guinea? If not, does her breathing sound different from the others?

I have 3 guineas and no the others don’t breathe like that

It may be something is caught in her airway. It causes a strange whistling noise or wheezing. The name for this is stridor. It almost always corrects on its own, usually within 24 hours.

If you have video, that may be helpful. Upload to youtube and provide a link.

In the meantime listen to the video below - is she doing what the chicken is doing in the video? If so, then likely it's stridor as previously suggested and this usually resolves in a day. She may have inhaled some food/water or something in her airway.
