My chinchilla keeps sneezing. It's been probably 6-8 times the past 2 days. No runny nose, no watery eyes, poops are normal, he's eating regularly..Should I be worried? It seems like a lot of sneezing...??
 
Was this the missing chin or the other chin? I would take him to the vet just to be safe. It could be as simple as too many dust baths/ or dust reminates. Also if you fabreeze close to the cage or any kind of strong fragrance can bother them. Or he might have a respiratory issue.
 
He had like 5 dust baths yesterday. I let him run around the living room and he kept jumping into the bath. But I don't know. He seems energetic, eating a lot, running around still. Just little sneezes. I listened to his breathing and he isn't wheezing or anything. No mucus, no nothing. I will be bringing him to the vet soon. He won't touch the aspen bedding, and I'm wondering if maybe he's allergic to it..?
