    question

    I have never seen it. I have seen them yawn, but I don't know if they are able to sneeze.

    The only time i've ever heard of a bp sneezing was if it had RI. I'm not sure its like a human sneeze either, more like a hard breath.

    sk8er, i dont know if they can sneeze, but if your hearing like deep breaths come out of your BP than it is normal.

    when they get really bad URI's or pneumonia they will expell the mucus from their lungs. I don't know if you could call it a sneeze, but technically it's the same thing. Always seemed like more of a hack or cough to me.
