Why are my 2-week-old chicks sneezing but have no other symptoms?

Question

Hi! I have 8 chicks that are 2 weeks old. They all seem to have the sneezes. No runny nose or eyes. We have them electrolytes but don't know where to go from here. Any ideas? Pet's info: Bird | Unknown - Bird | Female

If you've got them on any bedding such as pine shavings, it may be kicking up some dust and causing them to sneeze. Dust and pollen may also cause some minor sneezing in young birds. If they are otherwise eating and healthy, you may want to try a substrate change to see if the sneezing reduces. If they do start to have any discharge, or are not eating or drinking properly, then having them checked out from a vet for more serious illness is best.
