Hi there. We have 7 chickens in a 13 x 9 run with a decent-sized hen house that are 11 months old. We use pine bedding. We live in a warmer climate, so the coldest temp lately is in the 40s.
We give them chicken feed along with vegetables , mealworms, scratch, oyster shell and grit-keeping to snack-size portions for the treats. They have been doing well and then suddenly today one of our Barred Rocks is wheezy and sneezing. She is also making a strange constant sound when she breathes out.
I haven't seen any strange looking droppings.
Also I just noticed that she has some dark spots on her comb like foul pox. They had that a while ago.
She is still eating and drinking and we don't see anything other indications of what it could be.
We are newer to this so could use some aid.
