Sick Chickens

[Chicken PeeWee]

Hi I am new to Raising Chickens so I purchased several of them. I noticed that within a couple days one of them had bubbles in one eye and my Rooster didn't crow for about 4 days but he did sound like he had Rattled when he did so I thought that was how they sounded when they first started crowing then I noticed he sounded like he was wheezing so I called the Breeder explained about the bubbles in eye & my Rooster she told me to buy Oxytetracycline HCI and told me how to mix so I did started I did I then noticed my other 8 chickens started getting sick My Rooster really got sick so sick he was laying on the ground hardly breathing so I finally found a Vet rushed him to the Vet the Vet told me this Rooster is very sick he would be surprised if he makes it the Vet kept him over night I brought him home and Quarantined him He has survived thank god my others have gotten better its been about a month or so and they are sick again so what do I do is my question I am really attached to my Chickens and they are so loving to me they come sit on my lap always talking to me any suggestions would be grateful
