Persistent cold and cough

[Nanno]

I think the vitamin C I'm giving them has zinc in it, but I can double-check to make sure. They all got wormed in July. I used Ivomec and wormed three times, ten days apart, 1cc/30 lbs. At the time, Petunia and her kids had a dry cough which I suspected was lungworm. The dry cough cleared up after worming and everyone but Snickers was fine until recently. With Snickers, I'm not sure when the dry cough stopped and the snotty nose and wet cough started. For a while I suspected it was because he was inhaling almost as much milk as he was drinking after I started having the boys nurse Lilly twice a day. Snickers is an enthusiastic eater. But now that it's gone round to so many of the other goats I've decided it can't just be milk inhalation.

We haven't had unusual weather this year, although there have been some cool, damp spells in the last few weeks. A friend of mine said several of her baby goats came down with snotty noses after the last wet spell.
