Sneezing

[miss_piggy]

I know a lot has been written about his but this morning Spike sneezed. I didn't think much of it unitl he sneezed again and because I was looking in the cage I got covered in guinea snot!

I know we do this when we sneeze but it came as a surprise from such a little fellow. He seems perfectly normal in himself and is eating, pooing with no discharge from eyes or nose.

Should I be worried or is this normal?

I dunno, because I notice our Rimmer sneezes alot but no snot.

Maybe you should get a check at the vets just in case?

If there is discharge then I would get it checked out or start on a little bit of child's medicine My lot sneeze regularly, but only more of a concern when there's discharge

if there is a discharge or dirty eyes then they should be checked out. i have 2 pigs that always have dirty eyes and sneeze but never seem to get infections. alot of my pigs sneeze too. do what kelly says if u wish and just keep a close eye for any change e.g a changing in breathing(fast/noisy)

my lot sneeze quite a bit, but no discharge. i should do as the others have suggested e.g. vets and maybe kiddie's medicine.
hope the little hun is all right. :smitten: :smitten: hugs and kisses to little spike! :smitten: :-*
