I noticed yesterday that my chickens are sneezing?
They are eating and drinking and acting normal. What could it be? A cold?

Really, as long is it only happens once or twice, and only to one or two birds, and there isn't discharge, there is usually no need to worry. It is true that there are many very serious respiratory diseases that chickens can carry, but sneezing alone is not usually reason to automatically assume something is wrong.My response is very different. I've always heard sneezing is not normal, and birds don't get colds, per se, but there are some nasty respiratory bugs that can run through a flock. I don't have personal experience--I just have healthy birds, apparently--but if I were you I'd post on the diseases forum and give them as much info as you can.
My baby olivia does it all of the time is she okay or should i be worried!:/
