[QUOTE="Kenz, post: 511414, member: 7973"] No, he's not fat. Yes, he's purebred Hereford. He coughs occasionally, but not enough that it would cause the prolapse. He has occasional diarrhea, but nothing at all serious. About the overall feed plan, it's not really the feed. The pig that died last year was raised in a very sheltered and heated piggery (???) and when he got outside, he got to coughing and that's what caused it. We did take him to the vet, but with pigs its really hard. Also, we found out it was heredetory (sp?). The year's before that have been caused by lamb's tails being docked too short (we bought them like that) I do check for that when I buy, but its hard to tell when counting the vertebrae. Sometimes even if they do have enough, it still happens. [/QUOTE]
