Hi,
Three of our Balwen sheep (one in particular) have a persistent cough over the last 3 weeks. It isn't spreading to the other 13. They usually appear bright and are eating with the others but a few times we've found the worst one on her own in the shelter.
We've done a Lungworm check which was negative. We are advised it might be a virus but i'd expect that to spread in the flock? The other thought is the high levels of pollen, grass seed, and dust in the air and these few are simply affected by it.
Does anyone else have coughing sheep currently or can think of a possible cause/remedy?
Regards,
Jon
