runny nose heifer

[bigbruh]

I have a 7.5 month bred jersey cross heifer with a little bit of a runny nose. Is there anything that can be given to treat her while shes pregnant?

If it is clear I wouldn't worry about it. If it is a small amount and white, I would just keep an eye on her.
There are many antibiotics that are safe for pregnant cows, but if that is her only symptom I don't thing you are in need.
If it makes you feel better, check her temp.

Cows get colds same as you or I, Just keep an eye on her and she'll likely come around.

They also get allergies, seeds, dust and mold up their noses. I have a cow that blows and itches her nose all summer. Likely something she is grazing around. In winter time it stops.
A horse I have, had a chronic discharge from one nostril. Never cleared up with antibiotics. Turned out to be bad teeth. 3 teeth pulled and the drainage was gone.
Could be a number of things. But a temp would be helpful.

Just watch her, it's likely nothing to treat unless she stop eating or acting lethargic.
