Sneezing Rooster

[Shawna_scott]

Can anyone help me by giving me advice on what to do for a sneezing rooster? What could be causing his sneezing? Is this is bad?

He seems fine with the exception of sneezing very, very often for the last 2 days. We’ve separated him from rest of flock to be on safe side.

I’m following this. As one of my hens makes a funny sneezing noise a lot since we got her. She’s around 3 years old and is our oldest bird.
She’s not unwell in herself, still looks healthy and is active.. scratching, eating drinking noramally. Just curious to see what others say this could mean.

I had a chronic sneezing rooster. He had no other signs of sickness and seemed perfectly healthy (which he was/is). His sneezing completely stopped after I realized my coop didn't have enough ventilation. I never thought lack of air flow was a cause of his sneezing and actually was not the reason I add more ventilation. But nevertheless he never sneezes now.
Holy crap I'm wordy!
More vents = less sneezing for my rooster

I would look at dust in the feed or in the coop as possible environmental causes. Direct overhead ventilation from one end of coop to the opposite side are helpful. Any wet or moldy areas should be prevented. Look at nostrils for any blockage of feed or secretions.

Look for any signs of a respiratory infection, such as watery or foamy eyes, clear or colored nasal drainage, or gurgling sounds when breathing. Infectious bronchitis, the most common respiratory virus in chickens, can cause frequent sneezing as the main symptom, and lasts for about a month. It usually spreads to other birds in the coop.
