Disease Description In cases of extreme cough in an affected animal, repeated coughing causes extreme salivation and frothing from the mouth. The animal also loses appetite and does not eat fodder.
Management Practices Without doubt, individual hutches are the way to go to minimize coughing and pneumonia. There are few things nicer to see than a calf chewing its cud while lying down comfortably on dry bedding inside its hutch on a cold rainy and windy day. The next best prevention of coughing calves is raising calves in a super hutch as a social group, but you need to watch out for any cross-sucking of penmates’ teats.
