Sneezing chicken no other symptoms

Okay. I would keep an eye on her for the eye bubbles or nasal drainage, or for any other chicken showing signs. Hopefully, it is just some irritation. Have you added any new birds recently?

Thank you will do. No new birds just hay is new as well as tons of rain yesterday and the day before. Thank you!!!

If it makes you feel any better this same thing happened to me awhile back, sneezing with no other symptoms, it turned out to be the dusty bedding they were picking treats out of, I just kept an eye out for any new symptoms and after 7 days of no new or worsening anything I just chalked it up to being dusty.

I hope so! they all seems to be fine and only one was sneezing today. We usually don’t use hay but add it for enrichment. Fingers crossed and I am glad your chickens are healthy and it was just some dust!

I have one who has been doing this for a week a couple times a day, not always that mucous sounding, usually clean "peeps". sometimes after she eats for a longer period. no other respiratory symptoms that have caused me to use an antibiotic in the past. only other oddity is she laid a rubbery egg with a 2nd rubbery egg/tail attached when she had been laying normally. I'm not sure whether to treat her with an antibiotic or hold off.

You could be dealing with infectious bronchitis, a common virus that causes sneezing and congestion for several weeks, and can also affect the reproductive system. Antibiotics are not affective against viruses. I would just keep her eating and drinking, and a little warmer while she has symptoms.
