I got a new silkie to add to my little flock two weeks ago, I've noticed she occasionally sneezes with clear discharge, she's otherwise a perfectly happy chicken doing chicken things. Is this something to be worried about, will it clear itself up or do I need to take action?

Bedding is pineshaving, run is grass clippings, mulch etc.
 
It could be some environmental cause, such as dust in the feed or coop, getting a piece of feed stuck in the nostril, or pollen. But if she sneezes every few minutes throughout the day if you spend some time with her, it might be a symptom of a respiratory disease, such as infectious bronchitis.
