Question
I have 2 parakeets I've had for about a couple months. I adopted them young. Well, yesterday Kasie started sneezing alot, even in the middle of the night when they are usually quiet.  

Answer
Kellie,

She may have a little cold or something is irritating her. Keep her warm, maybe a small desk lamp next to the cage (small wattage bulb) A lot of times the extra warmth is enough to give the immune system a little boost in fighting off minor ailments.
