My hen had very slight raspy breathing this morning. I used VetRX under her wings and on her comb and the rasps subsided after a few minutes.
Now every couple hours I'm listening to her breathing. With my ear to her beak I hear her breath, but it doesn't sound labored. She is laying, eating and drinking. Seems a little more lethargic than normal but it is hot and humid here.
If the raspy breath returns or worsens, what should my next step be? I have an isolation cage ready. Should I also buy Tylan 50? I heard this is used to treat respiratory infections. Thank you for your input! She is our favorite hen and we want to be sure she has good care.
