Oh no!
I'd bet it's the humidity. My son has been coughing all day from it. Weird, but he's not sick so I can't figure out what else it could be. Any dust is more likely to get stuck with the air as thick as it is.

The heat can make sinuses swell which result in sneezing and a clear discharge. Once it cools down the sneezing should stop. In extreme heat and when a rabbit is overheated they can even have nose bleeds.
I wouldn't cull unless I had white snot.

My rabbits sneeze a lot when it is hot. I have never had white snot though.

The choco Angora only sneezed the day where the temp went above 85F which is why she's still in QT, but I haven't culled her.
I've had a number of rabbits sneezing here and started a massive cull. Out of 12 rabbits sent to freezer camp, none of them showed any signs of the dreaded P or any other infection.
I think it was the heat and humidity.

Sky, I am going to preface this by saying I so sincerely hope you won't take this the wrong way.
Your buns are in the building you're cleaning up, right? The one that's had some water problems, right? Now that it's hot and possibly drying out, maybe it's a tad bit of mold causing the sneezing? Mold that's dry now and flaking away?
Just a thought.

Not taken the wrong way at all.
That thought had crossed my mind, anything besides culling my precious Angora. It's been raining 17 days straight until last Friday, the ban started flooding, the flies started multiplying.
That was my first thought too, when buns started dying, but I put quite a few outside to separate before they became sick, and they still died outside. This building and space is so old, and so much had gone on here, there's so much in the paint and soil, it could be anything.<br /><br />__________ Tue Jul 16, 2013 9:29 am __________<br /><br />I do have to mention that the choco angora has never been in the barn, she never made it out of QT, she's in the backyard in the open air.
OK, that's it. Time for a road trip to Sky's place. Time to put hubby's redneck tech and my "thinking outside the box" skills to the test.
Just gotta fix the truck...and find someone to care for the critters...and tend to the garden...
Umm...gonna have to send virtual (hugs) and ideas your way. At least for now.
But gosh, I want so badly to kick the butt of whatever it is causing you this heartache.

Maysie and Snow have both been sneezing today. I moved them away from the others, but really don't see myself culling them right away. No snot, no matting of the feet. I know that many have been having breathing issues with the humidity as heavy as it is right now.
Frig.
And you know, normally I would cull just about anything, for any reason, but because of the weather, I too am going to make an exception for the Angoras.

Not quite sure what I did, but I got my posts mixed up between BH and Sky. So sorry.
BH, I might spare them for a bit myself. This insane heat is playing torture with a lot of critters right now.
*fingers crossed for Maysie and Snow*

Not at all, that's why I went back to you. Perhaps I just won't comment on any more threads, so no one gets confused or tempted to ask questions and derail someone elses thread.
I assume people have too many windows open, I have about 10 RT window open at one time. It's a wonder I don't get post in the wrong place all the time, happens on FB.
I wouldn't think that's necessary, sky. Sometimes a thread takes on a life of its own and becomes successful. That's not likely in this one anymore, but don't stop contributing, ok?

Hi BH. Just wondering how Maysie and Snow were doing?
