Hello,
I need help as fast as possible. I had two roosters yesterday, but at night, I heard the rooster making a weird sound but I didn't bother because I thought he will sleep. But in the morning, I found a rooster dead.

Now it's night again, and the rooster is making that sound. I am not sure if it's the other rooster or the one that was making the sound yesterday, and I am not sure which one died.

Here is a video link:

Please help as soon as possible. Thank you.
 
Sorry that the other rooster died. This one sounds like he is gasping and sneezing or coughing. That can be due to a respiratory infection or disease. Does he have Ny bubbles in his eyes, swollen eyelid or face on one side, or drainage from his nostril or beak? How is the ventilation in your coop? Is there fresh air from side to side, and is there any mold or dust that may be affecting their breathing? Have you added any new birds recently from another place? If you can get some antibiotics such as oxytetracycline, Tylosin, or Tiamulin (Denagard or TiaGard,) you might be able to treat him in the water for a few days. Is that possible? I would make sure that his drinking fresh water and has plenty of fresh air, and his coop is not too hot or cool.
 
I’m sorry you lost a rooster, hopefully you don’t lose this one. I don’t have any advice but I hope he recovers.
