So im not vet or specialist, but when I had 4 chickens whom were sick. Weezing, watery eyes, coughing/sneezing, and lathargic I was sure they were gunna die.

1. Isolation
2. scramble eggs with garlic
3. Apple sauce
4. Water
5. Yogurt

No Idea but after 3-4 days of these items all four were better. One had to be reisolated due to symptoms comming back, yet it worked. I had one die a few weeks earlier of the same symptoms so was not going to let it happen again so just looked around on the internet and decided to give it a try.

Anyone else ever come across this kind of sickness?
 
That sounds like a respiratory disease, such as MG, infectious bronchitis, or others. These make the flock all carriers, and may come back on survivors again whenever stressed, such as during cold weather or molting. Keeping them eating and drinking well, and being warm can help.

Oh wow I really hope it wont come back. Thanks for telling me, I have yet to see it spread or come back. I keep two heat lamps on all winter. My 6 hens are still very productive as well. Maybe them passing it to the big male guinea would hurt hes s bully.
