Welcome to AnswerPool Blackburn Bunny. (My Mum was born and brought up in Blackburn.)
Whilst rabbits cannot catch the common cold virus, they display many of the symptoms of a cold, especially sneezing, if they have a respiratory infection.
Most respiratory diseases of rabbits are caused by the bacterium Pasteurella multocida. This needs immediate antibiotic treatment as it can easily, even in seemingly mild cases, develop into pneumonia. It is also infectious and could infect all of your rabbits, so I would advise you to seek your vet's advice.
Of course I'm not a vet, and even if I were I wouldn't attempt to diagnose online from one symptom. Are the affected rabbits showing any other symptoms?

They are not showing any other signs nose does not seem to be runny just sneezing. I have about many rabbits and 2 have the symptons more 1 than the other. I took 1 to the vets and they gave an injection and stated its probably the temperature there stored in but many people tell me that is rubbish. The rabbits look well in thereself regards carl quote: Originally posted by Karrow:
