Is there a foul odor coming from her mouth? If so, it's indeed canker. It's caused by protozoan parasite called Trichomonas Columbae. @Aunt Angus is correct that the correct treatment is metronidazole.

Could it be thrush, maybe? I'm not 100% sure how to tell the difference.Is there a foul odor coming from her mouth? If so, it's indeed canker. It's caused by protozoan parasite called Trichomonas Columbae. @Aunt Angus is correct that the correct treatment is metronidazole.
You're right that Coryza has a bad odor too.Gads. These senior moments.
Yes, her eye is crusted over. I got her and some other birds about a month ago. Kept them all quarantined. I noticed one of the other birds that came with her has been sneezing. I haven't had this issue ever before. But after handling her, my hands did smell like soured feed.Canker does have a bad foul odor.
Thrush would be yeasty.
Does this chick also have an eye infection?
Her eye is crusted shut. I got her and other birds about a month ago. They have been kept in quarantine. I noticed another hen was sneezing so I inspected all of them. The breeder I got them from is reputable, but they were brought to me by another lady that was picking up different poultry to be brought back to my state.You're right that Coryza has a bad odor too.
