Is he catching a cold?

Earlier today, when I was petting bullseye, he let out a noise that sounded like a cross between a sneeze and a hiccup. Is he catching a cold? I haven't heard him make any noise like that before.

Check his nose, if it is covered in mucus it is probably a respiratory infection which means you will need an antibiotic from the vet. If his nose is wet (not running) he probably just got dust in his nose and should be fine.

i checked his nose, and it looks normal. Thanks!

Rabbits don't have colds in the sense that we get them. Usually if a rabbit has ongoing discharge from the nose and/or repeated unusual amounts of sneezing, it will be from dust, an environmental sensitivity, sometimes dental issues, or a respiratory bacterial infection(white or yellow discharge)

Odd situation I'm in.. my little fella looks normal too, but a week or so ago he started doing about 4 sneeze type sounds every 4 days.
When I went to look at him I noticed this on the ground like a good parent, I "examined" it and found it had one of his hairs in it and that stringy thing that looks like hay dust build up, maybe.
My buns will be going to the vet after the 16th (I have no money sooner unfortunately) for their vaccine booster and wellness check so I will be showing the photo(s)to their vetman just to make sure it isn't serious.
After he sneezed it out I have only heard him sneeze one time, and nothing was there.
