She might need a vets trip and some Baytril - respiratory infections can consume little hammys, so keep her warm, keep a close eye on her and maybe book an appointment. if she picks up before the appointment you can always cancel.

My hybrid had a respiratory infection and you couldn't always hear snuffling, it was only when the vet listened to his lungs that she heard how congested he was. It took about 3 weeks of Baytril to kick it.

It is infectious, so be careful to wash hands between handling etc. If you can move rooms with little disruption, you can.
