sick hen (wheezing, coughing, diarrhea, bright and clear eyes, eating and drinking as usual)

The white...may be favus...fungal infection.

Okay. I have had birds in past who had a white silvery look to their ears. Her

I'm sorry she isn't feeling too well.
The white on her ears...can you get a full shot of that?

How long has she been coughing?

Is this a better shot? Got it from video clip. Zoomed in.

I can’t hear anything in the video. She shakes her head like that though.

Wait. Got sound now. It’s similar but that hen sounds much worse.

This looks like favus to me which would be treated with a
miconazole cream

Yea...your girl doesn't sound bad to me.
I wonder if she could have gotten something stuck in her throat?

She does have diarrhea too. I watched videos of gapeworm. She doesn’t do that gasping thing with her head and beak. So I don’t think (praying) it’s not gapeworm.

NO no...I do not believe she has gape after seeing your video.
Don't worry about that at all.

What do you feed your flock?
It's been hot...drinking a lot of water can cause that.
Have you ever had poop tested for worms by a vet?

No I have never had them tested. I have been doing chickens only for four years and never had any issues that required vet care. I have had one with sour crop and treated her myself with the help of a friend and a diy video. Do you think it’s worms?
