  Recent results from the Experiment to Detect the Global Epoch of Reionization
Signature (EDGES) show an anomalous spectral feature at redshifts $z\sim 15-20$
in its 21-cm absorption signal. This deviation from cosmological predictions
can be understood as a consequence of physics that either lower the hydrogen
spin temperature or increases the radiation temperature through the injection
of soft photons in the bath. In the latter case, standard model neutrino decays
$\nu_i \to \nu_j\,\gamma$ induced by effective magnetic and electric transition
moments ($\mu_\text{eff}$) are precluded by the tight astrophysical constraints
on $\mu_\text{eff}$. We show that if mirror neutrinos are present in the bath
at early times, an analogous mechanism in the mirror sector can lead to a
population of mirror photons that are then "processed" into visible photons
through resonant conversion, thus accounting for the EDGES signal. We point out
that the mechanism can work for mirror neutrinos which are either heavier than
or degenerate with the standard model (SM) neutrinos, a scenario naturally
realized in mirror twin Higgs models.
