    I have one girl who has sneezing fits at least 1-2 times a day. Might this help her? I could get it at say Tractor Supply? Or would PetSmart or PetCo be a better bet?

    Tylan can be bought at TSC yes.

    But most rats that sneeze are usually irritated by the bedding. I try to get rid of rats with allergies best i can to bedding. Right now i have a few that will sneeze only on cleaning day, after that very little if any sneezing

    Oh! Maybe I am causing it then! I have been keeping her from the others (in case she was contagious) and have her in her own tub, that I clean everyday. Thought if I kept it cleaner, she would get better. I don't recall if when I first noticed it, it was cleaning day or not. Might have been. She doesn't have a wet nose or anything like that. Just sneezes.

    If shes on pine, try aspen. If same result then could have a Myco flare

    I have only ever used aspen.

    Hows the ammonia build up on aspen with her. That can cause problems with respiratory as well. If you dont see any red fluid from eyes or nose, then chances are shes allergic to something.

    No ammonia buildup whatsoever. I clean her tub everyday. There has never been any red fluid at all. Must be allergic to something I guess. It doesn't seem to bother her much. Do you think it is ok to put her back into the population then? Or maybe a vet visit?

    thats your call, If her nose isnt wet then shes fine to put back.
