Well,
something got to them..drastic temp changes will do that...my birds were panting today....they will get used to it...but if only a couple birds are panting....check them for canker...especially if they are in shape and panting....anyway...they should be fine..

Could be a hen who is egging....if not the bird is suffering from a respitory ailment and needs some time off and meds.

My yb`s were panting the other day after their first flight. I know they are just building their little bodies. In older birds I look at the length of time they pant. If it is just a few minutes no big deal. If they keep on longer than normal, I will hit em with a little 4n1.
I have some bayberry extract. It is supposed to help out the upper respiratory tract. Anyone ever use it?
