    Hi
    I have a bunch of 4 month old weanlings which i dosed with a pour on about 2 and a half weeks ago.
    I notice now that a good few of them cough whenever they run around a bit.
    Anyone any idea whats going on? Might the pour on not have worked?
    Thanks very much.
    Niall

    I would find pour ons notoriously hit and miss, even expensive ones like closamectin..
    Oral drench them maybe and see how it goes. I wouldn't inject them as if the burden is high you could end with pneumonia easily.

    if the burden was high surely the pour on would have had some effect. Maybe its had its effect and is clearing them up a bit.
