Patridge bantam chicken poorly foot?

Hia folks

 

Just before our other chook Daisy died, she had a little cough. Nothing too serious, just the occasional little cough, then she took a turn for the worse, and died while the vet was examining her a couple of days later.

 

We now have two new additions (a few days later) and one of our new chooks seems to cough sometimes. Maybe its sneezing I dont know??

 

She seems fine otherwise, but do you think she may have caught something from somewhere Daisy had been?

 

I am reluctant to take her to the vets as it was so traumatic watching Daisy die in front of us like that!

 

Anyone elses chook got a cough?

One of mine has been sneezing for a little while and had a snotty nose for a few days, but that's cleared up now. I was told that colds, coughs and sneezes that appear shortly after a chicken has been moved can be stress related.

Thats a relief I will take it as stress related, especially as she seems fine otherwise.
