I’ve learned a lot in my two years, I’ve treated for respiratory illness, gape worms, parasites, I’ve nursed injuries etc… but for the life of me I can’t figure this one out. She’s been doing this for a while, at least a month or more… no other hen is ill, just her. She seems fine other than this. She forages with the flock, she’s not anti social, only on some days she will just chill in the woods under a tree, they love that area. The picture shows her kind of gasping but she isn’t gasping. She’s just opening her beak. But the sneeze/cough is what I’m worried about. It’s a high pitched sneeze or cough. I can’t tell. Her eyes aren’t watering. She’s not pale. I tried to add a video but I guess you can’t.

She might be sick or have something more serious going on... watch her, giver her some extra vitamins/minerals/electrolytes in advised amounts, and maybe take her to the vet if it continues.
