Cleaned out the rabbitry tent today...as in reorganized where I had the hay, the feed, tidied etc. No rabbit cages, just STUFF.
Had Jesse over and we talked abit about my rabbits and what I see and what I find confounding, and he doesn't know either.
New tent.
It's wet in there because it's new ground, was put up during a wet fall, so the ground is just DAMP. I get rabbits that sneeze, I move them to old tent. They stop sneezing within half a day.
I have one rabbit that has blown white snot once...just a dribble. I immediately stuck her in the guinea pig pen in the old tent farthest I could away from anyone. She is fed last with hands washed etc. She has zero matting on feet, she has four babies on her, none of them are showing signs of anything. Jess looked them over good. She has a damp nose because it's a scorcher out there today. But no snot, and other than looking out of condition and moulting, she looks the picture of health.
I have one young doe...one of the litter than got really sick because I left the tent open on a cold night, and therefore got some entretis. In the new tent she blew yellow/green snot ONE DAY, and has been in the isolation tent since then. NO snot, no dirty feet, no nothing, looks good, acts good, seems fine.
Another one of those three has a constant sneeze. Never see snot. Sounds good, looks good, just has this sneeze regardless of where I put her.
No one around any of these rabbits shows signs of anything ever.
Affected rabbits are all small breed. Mini rexes and a polish doe. I see nothing with my meat buns.
What is this?
Something to worry about?
Can it be treated?
Do I ignore it?
I cannot figure this out. Is it just the new tent and they are having dust/ammonia/something reactions? Do I have something I need to cull for?
I need some answers....ideas....anything.....
