I think i just heard one of my sows sneeze?
I'm not sure-should i take her to the vet just in case?
What about the other three? :o
 
If its the first time - then no not straight away, have a look at her nose to make sure there's nothing sticking in it or up it! or if there is any snot(sorry couldn't think of a more politeword!) and just keep a eye on her and the rest of your gang!
 
Theres no mucus (thats the polite word for snot!), she was eating hay at the time. Maybe she has hay fever! ?
 
Thanks :embarassed: Sometimes they "truffle" in their hay and that makes them sneeze my boys do it all the time!
 
Sneezing is most often caused by dust or a tiny bit of hay,as Piglover rightly said.My pigs sneeze sometimes.usually just the once.As long as the piggy does not have runny eyes/nose and is eating normally, no need to go to a vet.
 
Actually i heard one of the others sneeze during a haircut, must have ben a hair tickling her nose!
