is there any household cold remedies for a chicken I can try?

I'm afraid I can't help but some one else will come along soon that will, but it might help if you could add what the symptons are that you are trying to help. Has the chook got a temperature etc.

chickens don't get colds like humans do however there are several respiratory infections they do get. What symptoms do they have?

[superlew70]

The chicken sneezes and coughs as near as i can tell.

I suggest you take her to a vets to get her checked out - respiratory illnesses can be very contagious. You will probably need a course of antibiotics for all the flock. Are her eyes bubbly or does her chest sound rattly?

thanks for your help -will look for a vet to help her

Hi, one of my hens,(deedee) seems to have a cold since yesterday morning, she is eating and freeranging as normal, but she is a bit snotty, but no cough. I have put some cider vinegar in the drinking water as a tonic, is there anything else i can do?
