Sneezing baby chick

[Julie1977]

Hello, could anyone possibly tell me which is best for a sneezing 3 week old chick. I have been told probiotics and electrolites but I am confused at what is the best medicine. Thanks so much everyone, any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Electrolytes are only needed if the chick is not eating and drinking. Probiotics are good for all chickens all ages, and 3 days a week is good. Vitamins are also good to add to their nutrition 3 days a week also. Sneezing can be caused by dusty feed or conditions, mold, and along with other symptoms in respiratory diseases such as infectious bronchitis, MG, and others. Here is a list with symptoms of common respiratory diseases: http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/ps044

You're welcome. Signs of respiratory disease can vary with each disease, but look for watery or bubbly eyes, nasal discharge, swelling around an eye or the face, or rattles/wheezes when breathing.
