Sneezing

[csmith9nr]

new guinea pig Sneezing a lot, there not loud just sound like small puff sounds. He's eating, drinking and doing everything else fine. I don't know why and he's been like that since I got him 3 days ago. I can't take him to the vet as I've been working. He's about 8 weeks old, what do you think it is? I've never had problems with my first two guinea pigs but its jutt these ones I've got from this breeder (if you've seen my previous post ull know one of them was seriously ill and had to be put down)

Mine do that now & again, it's dust in the hay. Mine stopped completely when I sifted threw the hay, got rid of most the little bits & dust. Maybe pop them to the vet & check it's nothing brewing.

Mine also sneezes after I put a new bunch of hay in his cage, so I guess it's nothing dangerous But also, what bedding do you use? If it's wood shavings from pine tree, it could be bad for your piggy since pine products are sometimes known to produce asthma for piggies.

Whenever I get new piggies I always book them in for a wellness check at the vet. It might be worth doing that as they'd pick up any possible issues.
