Ambulance Girl Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Hi can you help, Yesterday one of my chooks Rosie started to cough and sneeze, today she has a gurgling from her chest, other than that she still does all chickeny things and has still been able to lay her egg today. I thought that perhaps she was coming into moult as she has a few bald patches and her skin is red in places where I assume new feathers will come through. I have never experienced this before so I would be grateful for any assistance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Sounds rather like she has Mycoplasma; a nasty chest infection. You need to get het to the vet asap for some antibiotics. I hope that she gets better soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chelsea Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 sorry I am late in responding but I agree with Claret, any kind of wheezing/gurgling noises need to be treated with antibiotics. Might be a respiratory infection. Hope she's ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
