hello for a bit of advice.. i have this female piggy her name is applejack this morning i picked up because i doing their health checks and doing their feet,when i noticed she was doing this clicking nose idk what it is ( its stop for about 5mins then starts again).she very moody, she won't come out her cage for vegs and hay.she prefers lying about currently trying hand feed but she won't take it all.
taken her to the vets tomorrow because idk what it is at all
 
She could have something like a bit of dust or hay up her nose, or it might be the start of an infection in her airways (URI).

The clicking nose is probably coming from her nose or chest.
 
I'd agree that it's best to get her checked over by the vet. It could be a simple explanation like irritation from dust but it could also be the start of a respiratory infection. Well done for spotting it early.
 
As you recently lost 2 piggies, I would get her to a vet asap tomorrow, it could be something that s spreading between them all :(
