Weanlen with weak lungs

Grecco · 2011-12-27 14:57:22

Have a Weanlen who is coughing constant. He`s been like that since a calf. He`s been treated for pneumonia but I don't think that's the problem (I could be wrong) Lately he seems to be lying down a lot which isnt a great sign and the coughing is still there. Any ideas/suggestions ?

Does the weanling have runny eyes or nasal discharge.It could be a virus.I bought in a bunch of weanlings at the start of the year and they were coughing all the time.I dosed them a couple of times ,gave them antibotics,treated some for pneumonia nothing worked.In the finish i brought the vet and he said they had a virus called IBR.U have to spray stuff up their nose as its a a head, throath virus .It stopped them coughing.I think u can inject it as well but it dont work as fast
