Runny nose

[hchap311]

My gander has a runny nose and has been sneezing. He is still very lively and seems to be breathing fine. I noticed last week that his breathing seemed "stuffy" but I thought that he just needed a bath to clean out his nostrils. What is this? How do I know if it's getting better or worse?

How old is your gander and does he always have a bucket of water to clean his Nares and eyes? I’d add a tablespoon or two of ACV to a gallon of water it’s a good tonic and can kill some bacteria . If it doesn’t clear up he may need an antibiotic. Also does his shelter has good ventilation built up ammonia from dropping’s can cause serious respiratory sickness .
