suddenly ill cockerel, help!

day 2 update:

Yesterday he seemed stable - even at 2am he was okay - I was hopeful.

Upon waking this morning ... he seems to be doing worse. however I have read some experienced worse symptoms in the morning) he had drooled foaming saliva, he breathing is labored compared to yesterday, he's less alert and not vocalizing like he was, not supporting or moving his feet or wings as he was yesterday. I would say he seems much more uncomfortable. (is this worse than morning lag or regression)

I don't believe any vets in this area treat chickens. Thinking if I called the breeder (2-3 hours away) he would have little to no advise and just say cull and try again (ha).

any insight or further advise.

Thank you all so much - I wish he was having a better outcome.
