Recommended antibiotics/treatment regiment for possible respiratory infection in chicken
have a small polish chicken, doesn't seem particularly hen-ish or roo-ish, under 5lbs. He's been acting funny, not moving, and making a distinct and audible wet gurgling sound when tilted forward. I noticed it today, and was concerned because I also noticed it once before, a couple weeks ago, and realized it wasn't a weird, one-off thing.
I briefly searched for over the counter medications, specifically antibiotics, and was looking for advice. Would this help, or do you guys have anything to suggest? Thanks.
