Does your shelter have adequate ventilation? The build-up of ammonia from the urine and manure can cause respiratory distress. Also what are you using for bedding? Certain types of bedding can cause coughing. Dusty bedding, bedding with very fine shavings, strong smelling beeding.

One of my young does has been coughing recently too. Should I get her checked out? It sounds bad, but I don't think she has any other symptoms... Maybe a little bit of a runny nose... Both does have minorly runny eyes... I haven't checked temps though. Any idea what it is? Just a cold maybe? The other doe I have in with her is not coughing.
