[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 431570, member: 6198"] in response to the raspy, coughing while drinking, our bottle fed ozzie did that. We have treated for pnemonia 2x now. Cause, and this if from a vet, keeping housed. The amonia smell can affect the lungs and actually damage them. Sometimes we do not notice the smell but it is there. It's common among dairy calves, so i am told cause they are housed. So the first round of treatments we used La 200 and predef. thought we caught it. It returned about 5 weeks later and that is when we talked to the vet and she told us the pnemonia barn housed thing. I think she called it enzomaic (sp) pnemonia. We started him on a week and a half course treatment on Nuflor and Anafin. anafin is not a steriod but is an anti inflamatory and Nuflor is a strong antibiotic. We thought he might be getting it again about 2 weeks ago due to the damp weather so we gave him a subQ of nuflor and a shot of anafin and he is okay. When the vet gets back from her holidays next week we are going to have her on the farm for some health checks on a few animals and Ozzie is included to find out if his lungs are permenant damaged or if he is okay to ship this fall.
