Kids will cough from amonia down low in the barn, get on your knees in your barn and see if your knees are wet and what it smells like.

The intermediate host for lung worms, unless you purchased the does with it, is a snail, so if you have snails on your property you could have lung worm.

Kids just getting their rumens will cough when trying to bring up a cud, and some new folks don't know the coughing in adult does is also coughing up a cud. My adult does will hack their lungs up :0 after they have ran in from the woods. Perhaps something gets jolted loose. In fact I have this thing I say to them "did it have bones in it?" same thing I used to say to my children when they would cough.

So as you can see we need lots more information to help. With no temp above 102, I don't really do much of anything for coughs. Unless it is liquid or raspy sounding in the lungs, then its usually pnemonia. Vicki
