Birds sneezing

[chickiemama27]

Good evening. Our flock has several birds that are sneezing. And we just hatched some babies last week and I have heard a couple sneeze. I am assuming the birds have some sort of a virus. Everyone seems fine. Eating well, defecating. Drinking water. The only thing I’m noticing is sneezing. Any thoughts?

Thank you!!

Any facial swelling, mucous, bubbles in the eyes, etc.?

If sneezing is the only symptom, then I'd take a wait and see approach.

Do observe to see if there's a pattern when you notice sneezing - have they been eating/drinking, dust bathing, etc.?
How's the ventilation in the coop?
Do you detect an ammonia smell in the coop?
Any changes to bedding or feed - notice extra dust?

None of the above are issues. We fully clean out our coop every 6 weeks. I’m stumped and wondering if it’s a virus. Bc now the babies (1 week old) are sneezing.

Possible it's a virus. Most common viruses like Infectious Bronchitis run their course over several weeks.

If everyone is relatively active, eating/drinking, etc. then I'd monitor.
