Hi, there is a rainbow subforum a few lines down from this subforum. Nice group over there.

Could be a sign of RI (respiratory infection) your temps for a two year old should be upper 70's to low 80's high with a 5 degree gradient. Check your temps and maybe raise a few degrees. If it doesn't go away, see a vet. Also, is your humidity nice and high? Condensation on the glass? BRB's do better with high humidity.
