Gasping And Grunting

[lordcornwallis]

hi i have a two year old tumbler cock who is gasping for breath and grunting all the time . at present he is feeding a large young bird thanks lc, can anyone help please

if you think there is something wrong with one of your feeders then put it in a seperate pen to see whats wrong.could be respiritory or maybe it has ruptured something whilst feeding the youngster.

it really would just be "guesswork" without looking at the bird , and asking a string of questions ,regarding treatment for canker etc . have you examined the throat ?? have minerals been used whilst rearing ,does this bird fly out,and many more options. etc etc . good luck.
