This morning I noticed Peanut making a sort of 'chuffa' noise when I was holding him. It sounds like he may be sniffing around but I don't want to rule out the possibility of illness and then have worse problems. If he's still doing it later today then I will get him to the vets, I just wanted opinions on what the noise is, especially as Crumpet isn't doing it and I haven't heard it before.
 
Occasionally, one of my piggies will get a 'wheeze' and it turns out to be a bit of hay or food stuck and will clear when they cough or sneeze.
URI's usually present themselves with runny eyes, wet nose etc. but if you are concerned, would pop him to your vet for a check up :)
