My Cuckoo Maran chicken named Nellie was sneezing tonight. The temp here in Michigan has really dropped tonight. Do you think she is comming down with something or is just cold?

My chickens do this too (sometimes it sounds like a cough or a squeak, too). I have no idea why, other then simply to clear their respiratory system, just like we do. I doubt she has a cold, but make sure she has a nice warm place to roost at night, just in case!

Thanks Brew Crew. I haven't heard her sneeze since. I haven't had chickens since I was a kid so I am relearning all thier behaviors and quirks.
