One of my silkes opens the beak like it's though to breath. And is sneezing. This started yesterday and now one of my brahmas is sneezing aswell. What shall I do? What can it be?
 
Do you have photos?

How old are they?


Sneezing can be due to environment that is dust or housing that has poor ventilation. It can also be a symptom of respiratory disease.
Observe to see if they sneeze every once in a while during dust bathing or if they are getting food/water in the nostrils.
Any discharge from the nostrils, mucous, frequent sneezing, swelling of the facial tissue and/or bubbles in the eyes would be illness.

If respiratory illness, then an antibiotic like Tylan/Tylosin may help treat symptoms.

Here's some reading about illnesses. https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/publication/ps044
