My hen start sneezing a couple weeks ago while she was eating. This happens sometimes when the food is dusty so I was hoping it was nothing. But I could hear her outisde and it seemed to be getting more constant. I seperated her and put her in a dog crate. The sound that she makes is like a cough/crow/sneeze and it happens all day and most of the night. No other chickens are showing any signs . Although our rooster died about a month ago and he also had a respiratory issues that lasted months until he finally died. His started the same but took longer before he was in the shape our hen is currently in. Currently I am giving the hen some vet rx orally as well as putting it under her wings and on her comb. I am in kauai. I do not know if Gapeworm is actually something I should worry about here or not? Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks
