Sick Hen need some help please.

[Burton Wyandotte 601]

Hello, I have a Golden Laced Wyandotte about a year and a 1/2 and she has a runny nose and her tail is droopy. She has no other symptoms, does anybody know what is wrong with her, and what kind of medicine should I give her? I also have never wormed my little flock,should I and what should I use. Thank you for your help

Isolate the hen if you can. It sounds like she has some kind of respiratory disease such as coryza. There are people on this forum that are real experts that can be more specific with diagnosis and treatment. Be patient, these people will see your post and you'll the best of advice.
Good luck.

Is Coryza deadly? And could the rest of my flock catch it?
