What shanpoo can you use for washing a silkie?

Update: shes preening herself right now. She looked like a naked rat and we blow dryer her to the best we could and now shes sitting in her cage with a chick heat lamp because she was shivering. Question: is it okay to hear her breathing after a bath? And she keeps doing a thing with her beak, it's like shes eating air but she just keeps open close open close fast. Ya know what I'm trying to say? And were trying to figure out the water so dont worry she has water it's just we need to go out and get a different one to hook to the cage.

It sounds like a possible respiratory infection. No, she should be breathing the same after a bath.
she stopped when she started to feel better in the cage. She has been sneezing a lot and likes sneezed very loudly or I don't know I have a thread on that. But that only happened when she ate too fast.
 
Just keep an eye on her. She may be fine. Sneezes can be normal, if as you said, you know there is a specific cause. Listen for wheezing, or labored breathing. As long as that isn't an issue, it probably isn't anything to be concerned about. Still, keep an eye on her.
