I HAVE A CHICK THAT SEEMS LIKE ITS SNEEZING AND HAVING TROUBLE BREATHING. HES DRINKING OK AND SEEMS TO WANT TO MOVE BUT HIS BREATHING AND SNEEZING IS STOPING HIM FROM DOING SO.
I've moved him from my chick area. I changed all the chick bedding(I'm using pine shavings). I read that if you move them away from said area even after cleaning and force them food and water when necessary that it should help. Any advice on meds I may give my chick? I've lost a few to breathing problems so wanna know what to do to prevent future deaths! Thank you In advance
 
Hmm you say youve lost a few to breathing problems, is this all in the same batch because you would then have a respertory virus which is going to hit all your birds and probably kill most if not all at that age :( but if it's a separate occasion and this is the only chick separate it and try Vetrx in its water and put the baby on cloth or fabric to reduce dust. Unfortunately chickens are extremely hardy so when they do get sick chances are they won't make it even at adulthood (I lost 2 to a ri last summer) :(
 
I meant in previous batches I've lost one or two to problems similar to this minus the mucus sound, sorry should have specified.
I lost a silkie 2 days ago in this batch. So not a big problem so far. Is Vetrx a respiratory medication or a supplement? And where do I buy vetrx?
