Some respiratory diseases such as the virus infectious bronchitis can cause sneezing and nasal drainage. Sneezing can also be caused by coop conditions such as dust, ammonia odors, or getting dusty feed stuck in noses. Make sure that you have optimum ventilation high up in you coop ceiling,and don' t use heat lamps which can cause panting from overheating.
