    I have had chickens for many years but rarely had any illness.
    My roo sound like he's congested and coughing a little, but clear eyes and nose.
    Any recommendations on how to treat him?

    You have him isolated, right? I'd do that immediately, then watch him for a day.

    If he is still looking sick, you should go down to the feed store and see if they have anything to recommend to help clear it up. I agree with Zeppy about isolation.

    Also, how is he? This was posted 5 days ago. Is he ok?
