I think my Colombian B&W Tegu might be sneezing, but I'm not sure. When I take him out to play, every 5 minutes or so he'll make a tiny *chuff* noise. He doesn't open his mouth and there's no discharge or anything.

Yeah mine both sneeze as well sometimes - The substrate may be a little dusty - misting it down will help cut down on some of the dust ... _________________ 1.0.0 Ball Python "Albino"

Mine does it from time to time. Bear in mind, their nostrils are probably much more senstive than ours, so dust may be the problem. I would only worry if it becomes persitant.
