Did you change the bedding? I wouldn't worry to much unless they have a colored discharge coming from the nasal area. I would just keep a eye on them for a few days and see if anything changes. Good Luck

Try a little apple cider vineger in their water.

Or a mashed up clove or 2 of garlic.

How do I give it to them? when they sneeze they get snot on me does that make a dif?

That doesn't sound good. Where did you get them? How old are they? Are they around any other birds you have?

well 6 are about 7-8 weeks and 3 are about 17 weeks we have had them all for over a month now they just started this 2 days ago

Hard to day if they brought something with them or if they are reacting to dusty bedding, environmental irritants, etc. If they are having a snotty discharge, it most likely is something contagious. Were all those birds together when you got them or did they come from different places? I ask because one group may have given something to the other group.

the older ones came from a diff place than the babys but do you think it could have taken this long for whatever it is to show itself?

It's entirely possible. That's why you should quarantine new birds for at least a month before allowing any contact with the current flock.
