Three of my grow outs have been sneezing a bit over the spring but, as several of my herd are allergic to Oak I wasnt surprised to have some sneezing. However, when we found one in serious distress, flat out and almost unresponsive it was a big shock.
No outward sign of problems other than one eye a bit wet and weepy but as it was that side down it could have been pressure that caused the wet eye.
When I dispatched him his gut was fine (mostly empty as it looked like it hadnt eaten for a few hours) kidneys good, liver spotless. In the rib area not so good. The heart was about double sized and the lungs were only HALF the size they should be. :shock:
I will be dispatching all the others in that pen to see if the half sized lungs are in more than one but has anyone heard of anything like this?
Most worrysome is I have sold several of that litter to other people!
