Lower respiratory infections are common in all fowl but especially in chickens. You need to be careful here. Domesticated poultry are susceptable to West Nile Virus and Avian Flu. Both of these can be passed to humans and are potentially deadly. You should isolate the bird from yourself and other animals.

It may have chronic respiratory disease. Good hygiene and antibiotics will control the problem. Antibiotics like terramycin will help to treat. Tylan 200 injection 0. 5ml to breast muscle treat excellent.
