Might be helpful if you told what was wrong with your chickens. "Sick" could be hundreds of things. Maybe someone soon will answer, but I can tell you, if you cull, you will have to clean everything before you add new chickens. You can't put them in on top of the old bedding, etc.

Rooster, what medicine exactly have you given your chickens for the sneezing and bubbles?

It sounds like you are really upset, and I'm sure this is very upsetting. Culling may not be the best option.

Unfortunately the website is not available at this moment that I have a link for, to use to try to figure out which respiratory disease they have. Here is the link anyway:

You should read the last post in the thread, too: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=415995&p=1 and one more: https://www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=419255

You will get much better info on the website than from a coop or feed store.
