coughing goats and lungworm

[jmsim93]

Check around your feed stores for Levamisole. One of our stores still carries it. (Brooks Country, Henderson, TX) Maybe you could order it and they could ship it??? I have some from a sheep supply place online. ( I got it right before they pulled it) My goat coughed when she ran, ate or when I had her on a lead. After doing research I got the Levamisole and treated her the next day. It took care of the cough that very day. I would definately try to find some and treat just in case.

I had the same issue, Vet came out, said it was the dramatic temp changes with the crazy weather going on. 30s at night 60 during the day.

Gave pen C, 5ml per 100lbs.

I decided not to chance it, since it was federally pulled from the market.
Plus, the Ivermectin Sheep Drench worked great in our 2 doelings that were affected by lungworms.
