Respiratory issue in flock

[Thatothercrazychickenlady]

Hello everyone,
I recently (on the 11th of June) purchased a gorgeous silver laced Wyandotte hen only a year old and laying eggseptionally well, daily including the day I got her. The eggs look good quality. She eats well, drinks fine and her little rose comb is usually a bright red. On the way home I noticed her panting but I figured it was from heat and stress. When we got home and I tried to pet her she would do this gurgling noise every time I would go to pet her. She’s pretty moody as well mind you. As the days went on I started noticing coughing and a few sneezes. It’s been weeks now with no change other than today she was panting again but it’s really hot out but she’s in a cool spot.

There was also a breach in quarantine due to my hubby leaving a latch undone. So now the rest of the flock have joined in on the sneezing and coughing and have started shaking their heads and yawning more. Other than that no change, eating drinking good, no panting, laying as well as they normally do and nobody has any discharge what so ever. The occasional poops have gotten a little runny though.

The silver is bedded on a rubber mat with a light amount of hay in the nesting box and the rest of the flock (2 Wyandotte Roos and 4 sex links) is bedded in our vetelated coop on a light amount of shavings with also a little bit of hay in the nesting boxes. The flock free ranges from 8-6 every day.

I was thinking about treating the silver for gapeworm but now I’m more thinking respiratory illness.

Looking for suggestions on what to do to fix them. I’m in Canda so hopefully someone knows of a product sold in Canada that I can obtain.

Thank you very much for your time. Here some pictures of the silver.

I'm in TN. The temps are now over 100. Some of my flock are acting the same way. Some also have watery eyes and swollen sinuses. We are using Norocillin (from Norbrook), a liquid penicillin orally for the worst cases, an antimicrobial (Vetericyn)) for swollen sinuses and eyes. (Also MicrocynAH) poultry care spray for minor problems. Every summer we have problems with swollen sinuses and watery eyes with the turkeys and chickens (lots of sneezing). The problem goes away as summer and fall proceed. Young birds are affected the most, but also some of the older birds. I've one cockerel in the kitchen that is blind from all the swelling, I'm hoping it gets better; it's a salmon faverelle.

Affected birds also continue to lay and act normally as far as eating, ranging, weight, etc.
