Woozy chicken--need help asap!!! (emergency)

Where do I get Tylan? None of my local feed stores have heard of it. I've been feeding her electrolytes and her poop now seems normal, although she's still sneezing. I thought maybe CRD, and the feed store recommended Terramycin because it has instructions on the back for CRD, so I've also been feeding her that.

She's isolated from the others, but the damage seems to be done already. The rest of my small flock are all a bit listless and sniffly, and this morning when I fed them, my one hen--who's appeared to be the healthiest of the bunch so far--gave out a series of loud, honky sneezes. None of the others have sneezed that way.

Will terramycin work, or do I need Tylan? If so with Tylan, where can it be obtained, and how much is it?Will it hurt them to switch from Terramycin to Tylan, since i already started the Terramycin?

My poor little flock. Help?
 
The symptoms you describe are so general and symptomatic for so very many different things....
You say she is eating so little and so there will always be green faeces simply from that.
You MUST keep her hydrated! When birds feel ill they will often stop eating and drinking (but drinking insufficiently is the worst)...
Put electrolytes/vit in the water (you should always have this on hand but if you dont I am sure your feed store will have it... diluted pedialyte is an emergency substitute)
I suggested the tylan as you mentioned respiratory symptoms but it must be said that vit A deficiency can also exhibit some very extreme symptoms when severe (and often goes hand in hand with respiratory symptoms/illness) >>>you can therefore also give her three drops of POLYVISOL Enfamil formulation once a day in beak for a week and then taper off the next .
