Ok, so I was chilling out with my buck sire (well soon to be) when he sneezed! Aside from a flutter, I didn't think of it. Then he kept sneezing.
And sneezing.
And sneezing.
It's sounds wet... Like when you have a snotty nose? Is not snotty from I can tell, and any snot I can see INSIDE his nose is clear.
So far, so good.
I do know our hay is dusty, I'd prefer it isn't, but it is. The other rabbits aren't sneezing far as I can tell, but he is.
Do you think it's some sort of delayed reaction? He's not really rubbing his nose, but its possible the dust didnt really irritate him until now? Or that... Well I don't know. I'd imagine if there's something in there, he'd be rubbing his nose,but same goes if its snotty - which it sounds like. He's fine otherwise, flopping around, hopping around, eating my food. Ya know, being a brat. And he hasn't really gone through stress - aside from a new home & a short drive. He did get out for a while, not sure how long, but I went outside to check on them and he disappeared!
But I still don't see that as something that could compromise an immune system enough for even a pasturella he's immune to to show up. But, I could be wrong.

Sorry, I had a mareks disease scare so whenever something like that (impossible to treat disease) shows up, I freak out! He seems to have stopped for a bit, though.
 
It is very possible that it is DUST or some other foreign matter
but I would isolate him from the rest of the herd and keep him
under a watchful eye for at least a few weeks to a month,
just to be on the safe side.
Ottersatin. :eek:ldtimer:
 
I am. He was isolated, just a little panic attack.
This little dude has been munching on everything - gave in and gave him some broccoli! He's never been so content!
He started off in life on an all greens diet... It really shows!
 
What about a perfume or scent of deoderant, etc that could be irritating his sinuses?
