TCM57,

I would fall into the category of don't worry about it. But having said that, I worry about everything with the cattle. It might be worth your piece of mind to isolate her for a few days, and maybe even let a vet check her out.

Each time I get the vet bill, it makes it much easier to pay knowing that I didn't have to worry. Better safe than sorry. I know that's cheesy, but it's true. If she's a good cow, why chance it.

Could be lung worms or she could have had to many meds as a young calf when treating a lung illness and burned her lungs with them. I have a jersey that is that way. It makes her cough at feeding. Okcow gril

We always rotate out wormers. Some guys swear by this and some think its dumb. We rotate because worms can built up a resistance to one specific wormer. Wish you luck with ur cow hope she gets better.
