: I have a goat that has a cough. I worm them once a month. So I don't think it is worms. Is it something she might be eating. Does any one know why she would be coughing.
Lungworms could be a cause. Are you using the same wormer continually? Yearly you can switch wormers to avoid developing resistance to the wormer. Some goats have allergies like people and cough. Dry and dusty conditions can cause them to cough, but some goats just cough for no good reason.
