sudden onset respiratory symptoms

[teamwilkins]

Found pullet walking slowly alone (odd) after particularly treacherous thunder storm; assuming she was outside/in a tree during rain. Now with noisy breathing; inspiratory & expiratory though no wheezes/cough/sneeze/rattle/gurgle. Suspect water aspiration from the deluge of rain? How to treat? Now isolated from others. Of course, it's Friday night of Easter weekend and limited Vet service tomorrow. Thoughts?

I don't know about this one. I would say maybe some antibiotics in the water and a light to help keep her warm in the quaranteed area.

4/3 am: Update: Kept inside & warm over night with resolution of audible inspiration and expiration. Noisy breathing immediately resumed this morning when activity increased. Eating & drinking. Still isolating herself and others seem to be targeting her yesterday and today.
