I would love if someone could help me with my girl, shes walking around just fine and eating as of now, but when I went to pick her up she was what sounded like sneezing and she sounded congested. Her nose and eyes are not running, but under her beak is wet. Shes shivering so idk if it's just from being cold last night and shes got just a cold or if shes sick with something serious and she needs medication. The only medicine I have is corid for chicks right now so If i need to buy something else i would really love to know what to get to help her. Thank you!
 
Bring her to a warm place and keep her in a dog crate with food and water to get her warm and to watch her symptoms. She might have a virus such as infectious bronchitis, but if she develops bubbles in an eye or swelling of her eyelid or face, then MG might be a problem. MG may require treating with an antibiotic, such as Tylosin, but infectious bronchitis has to run it’s course over about a month. IB can cause wrinkled or thin egg shells. IB tends to spread through the flock over several months. Here is a good link about common diseases:
