You honestly don't have much time to think about it or worry what it is and what it isn't- he won't last that long without drugs. I'd get to the vet asap. If you can't do that, get the Tylan that Sonoran said to medicate with. I'm personally, just dealing with a little sneezing in a couple of my birds... and my vet told me it can turn deadly VERY quickly-- like over night they die if left untreated. (I saw the vet yesterday) Hopefully you are already treating with drugs at this point, as it's the next morning.​

Is it common for silkies to become ill during weather.

I myself have a few silkies w running noises, nothing else just a running noises.

Weather does not in and of itself cause illness. However, it can foster conditions that make it more likely for clinical level of illness to develop. Weather extremes cause stress, and stress lowers immunity. Lower temperatures can prolong the life of germs that would die under higher temperatures. I do not believe silkies are any more prone to illness than any other breed. A specific LINE may perhaps be, but there are none that I am specifically aware of. Your best bet at preventing illness is keeping your birds immune system built up, making sure they have a dry, well ventilated (but not drafty) coop, clean water, quality food.
