Urgent! Brahma sneezing randomly?!

[Jose11632]

I have a Brahma a bit more than a month ago she sneezed when she ate and since everyone told us it could have been her inhaling dust from her feed, so we took away the feed and gave her wet feed for a week and the sneezing stopped so we switched to layer pellets since I read they have less dust and it worker for about 3 weeks she didn’t sneeze about 3 days ago I gave her layer pellets in the morning and she did the same little sneezes that turned into her big sneezes. So I thought her coop was dirty since their was no dust in their feed so i broomed the dust on her coop and cleaned it a bit assuming it was that. But no at least for that day it seemed like it. So later in the day I gave her wet feed and they ate and I heard her sneeze while eating it. The next few days I heard her sneeze at random. Like once or twice every few hours but at night she was completely quiet no sneezes while sleeping, I know since I stayed up late till everyone fell asleep since I hunted rats on the yard. She was quiet along with her two friends. Today in the morning I was giving them food when she was preening and some feather near her butt when and sneezed quickly after. I don’t know what do anymore? Any ideas?

She has no bubbly eyes, no nasal discharge, since most her sneezes are dry no particles come out. She walks good, lays almost every day. Has made no contact made with other birds. She lives in a house that has ventilation from the left and right side and the front where I see them. The roof is close since there is rain. The floor is packed sand but it gotten hard and the chickens need to dig to make it soft.

Also we had a house right on top of their where we would put our bantam and when we took him out we forgot to take out the feeder and it started having rat poop on it and and it also has dust but I don’t know if it has anything to do since yesterday we took out the hen with a rooster to see if they would mate and he did for one time then he tried again but this time she let one sneeze so I carried her and she stopped. Also my sister was carrying her around the yard seeing how she would act she sneezed in her arms. So I don’t know what’s the problem anymore.

Their living arrangement hasn’t changed and the roosters sneeze when eating but their sneezes don’t sound as bad

I don’t think that you are dealing with anything contagious since she only sneezes occasionally and no others are sick. It could be something in the environment or a particle of feed in her nostril making her sneeze occasionally. Infectious bronchitis virus usually causes sneezing every few minutes, and most all birds get it. With mycoplasma. (MG,) there are usually eye bubbles or foam, lethargy, and noisy breathing. Other diseases have more symptoms, including cough, swollen eyelids and drainage, and wheezing.

She’s good only the sneezing and her buds are good no sneezing from them. We live in Houston Texas. But why is it only her? When she’s out it also bothers her.

Or are Brahmas like that sneezing differently than other chickens?

I’m guessing she’s been like that for longer since we left on a two week trip but he had someone check on them so made them feeders with buckets and a big bowl and it was the layer crumble and she could have been like that since when we left and she could have gotten it since there. But she stopped for three weeks but got it again somehow.

Her breathing is normal no noise from her
