Wheezing, Sneezing, laying hens???????

[cay1984]

I have a small flock of mixed laying chickens 19 to be exact. Recently I noticed two wheezing and most all of them sneezing. But tonight I noticed one is almost like a gasping on the roost? They all are still eating and running around as normal but i know there is something not right they where wormed with worm out 2 months ago, and I took the one that was wheezing the most to the vet yesterday and he gave me tetroxy to put into there water, but I dont think they are drinking it, I started it last night and it also rained so I think they just drank from the few little puddles that are in the run instead. I'm scared I love my chickens, I'm very upset and need advice?????

you should isolate the 2 with the symptoms, sounds like a URI. signs of respiratory illness in chickens include sneezing, wheezing, coughing, and runny nose and eyes. ... chicken respiratory infections can be so mild they're unnoticeable, or so severe that most of the flock dies in a short period of time.
