Sneezing, Bubbly eyes, Wheezing - HELP!

They're the same thing, just in different sied bottles.

Also, chickens do not get colds, they get cold-like symptoms. My chickens are currently in an insulated shed with a heat source with a bunch of hay on the floor. There is dust everywhere and they have to clear their throats but otherwise are fine.

As for the sneezing, it could be that you introduced new birds to the flock, and that might cause stress and bring up dormant symptoms of CDR (Chronic Respiratory Disease, which most chickens have). Also, do not give them too much antibiotic, as your chickens might develop an immunity to the medication.

LS-50 (Lincomycin Spectinomycin) can be used in drinking water.
It is a little easier than having to give 100 birds shots which was my option with the Tylan.
Tylan does work well though.
How many birds are you treating?

I'm treating 17 birds, 15 in a big house with easy access and two in a small house with difficult access. I'm supposed to report back to my vet with results of this round.

I don't know that I can afford the tylan. It's 75$ for one dose to all 17 birds.

Go to TSC-I got a HUGE bottle of Tylan 200 for $29.99. That and a small gauge needle and you're good to go for way more than the few birds you're treating.
Where did they quote you $75 for Tylan?

I paid 9.99 for my bottle at Blue Seal and it is enough to do all the birds I will ever own should I need it. Where did you get a price of 75.00? I also used the tylan 50 and has awesome results. Bantam dose of .2cc/ml in the breast.

The price quote was from the vets office (of course)

What is blue seal? I'll look around at TSC.
