[QUOTE="Clodkicker, post: 305043, member: 3539"] She is normally a good eater but she did get out and get into the protein cakes on Thanksgiving. Since then she has been eating good. She isn't really a picky eater but doesn't seem like too much of a "Piggy" eater unless it is with the oats or cakes (which we hand feed to control intake), We purchased her about a month ago and she has been doing well except for a cough and a snotty nose. Previous owner said all the shots were given including worming. She still has the cough and snotty nose (white mucus). She has been put out on the pasture a couple of times but the grass is under snow and dry. Tonight she came in during feeding time but was slower than usual in getting to the bunk. Generally, she is waiting at the bunk for food--this time she didn't come to the bunk until she heard the oats. Just doesn't act like she feels good. Her head is hanging down, her ears are droppy, her belly is growling, and she has a little diaherrea, but she does not a fever (that we can tell), or laboured breathing. What else should we be checking? [/QUOTE]
