VetRX is just a palliative. It won't cure anything.

This isn't a diagnosis, but the symptoms align with a common respiratory ailment called Mycoplasma. If you can find Tylosin, that can treat any bacterial components and hasten healing.

Tip: If you have any elderly friends or relatives that have just recently had cataract surgery, ask them for their leftover eye meds. The steroid drops can help tremendously.

Ok thank you I have had her with other chickens but none of the others have gotten it
 
Before this happened, did you notice that his sinuses were puffing out while breathing? I have two poults that seem to have just got over a respiratory thing but their sinuses puff out while breathing. They aren’t swollen or anything, but I’m wondering if maybe it might develop into that. I actually just posted a video of what is going on with my turkeys, if you want to check it out and let me know what you think.
 
There was a lot of sneezing before but the puffed out sinuses happed kinda overnight didn't notice anything before the day I took the pics
