[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 36421"] Thanks for the posts so far. The only reason we question it is around here it seems like evry questionalble death is pneumonia. The other is the fact that it only happens in years that he cuts the pasture early. This farm is also more of a hobby farm, he checks his animals every day and they never showed signs. This is why he is questioning the vets answer. He actually thinks there may be some weed that early in the year may be toxic and we are exposing the animals to, but this is just he theory. My personal theory is the years that he cut early were very wet years and pneumonia is very possible, but why only in the pastures that were cut? His animals in the barn and other pastures were fine except for 1 year he did lose 2 in the barn, but we know why they died. [/QUOTE]
