Sneezing

[Robbo]

My 5 wweek old Pekin, howard, has been sneezing the past 4 days or so.

You have always been able to hear him breathing which I thought was strange as my other ducks you can't hear breathe like him. But now he started sneezing as well.

Is there something I should treat him with incase?

I am a bit lost.... but I don't want him getting really sick.

They are in a very large coop at night that is very clean. Only 4 birds in the large coop. Kept clean.

They have free outside roam from 8am to 10pm nightly.

They have a VERY deep water dish and he is always in it and dunking under it.

You might think of using something like Vetericyn spray. I would give Howard a warm bath and look closely at his or her nares. Sometimes you can see if something's gotten stuck in there.

How is he or she acting otherwise? Appetite? Energy?

I need to turn in, but I'll check in tomorrow.

I have been looking when I hold him and such and though I can see right through Ducky's I have always seen a little something in Howards since he was born. So I figured maybe he was always a little different or what I am seeing has been completely normal. But nothing new looking since the sneezing started.

Acting perfectly fine, same as always. Howard is a very laid back duck - I call him my lazy duck too - lol. Eating just fine, my little piggy, haha.
