Guinea sneezing?

[redrooster99]

I noticed a couple days ago my guinea fowl hen seemed to be sneezing. I don't know if she is sick or if it is just another guinea sound. Other than that she does not act sick. When she makes this noise it just happens she doesn't even shake her head. I had a sick rooster in there a week ago but I culled him.
Could she had got it from him? They are in with the chickens. None of the chickens are sick so what is going on?

Please someone answer this fast because I am selling off some chickens tomorrow and don't want to sell birds that could be infected. I was thinking the flock was ok but then this guinea. Could something just be in her nostrils.

If the weather is cold but or changing then sometimes guineas will be a bit sniffly but they are just fine. But if it's little neck is all scrunched up and it's not moving around as much as usual and keeps shaking its head, then yes it is sick. I suggest not selling them until a few weeks after you culled the sick rooster. This will be a quarantine time to make sure none of the guineas caught it off him. Sometimes they're just sniffly or sometimes it's the start of an illness. I hope your guinea is ok

Thanks it is raining bad over here and it started, all of a sudden it stopped today and she has sneezed once. She isn't acting different.

Check the eyes as it sounds like CRD to me and that can spread fast to other fowls, rainy days have no affect on them.
