Drooling COW

[choochter]

This cow has been drooling lately, see drool at side of her mouth and there is a pile on the grass as well.
Anything to be concerned about? She's the only one drooling.

Bugger.
Title said Drooling Holly a moment ago.
Thought it was going to be more along these lines

Could be a tooth abscess @choochter.
The cow, not Holly.

 

[bovine]

could be teething, could be wooden tongue, could be a cut or abrasion in the mouth, could be a broken jaw

Seen all of the above in reasonably well cows

Needs getting in and a look in the mouth

 

[multi power]

Fluke? But she looks in too good condition

wouldn't she be a bit wabbit if she had an tooth abcsess?

Tongue would be hard if wooden tongue.

Other causes would need a closer look. Don't get bitten

But do you have rabies in the UK?

Sort of. The official answer is no, but its here in bats in the UK and it has lead to human cases and deaths

Wooden tongue, fluke or lungworms can cause coughing and froth. Wooden tongue usually swelling in throat and tongue out in bad cases

 

[Old Tip]

Sometimes can get a blocked solo a duct which has this effect, but will also see swelling under the jaw. If it's wooden tounge a course of antibiotics usually clears it up, I have only ever had it in store cattle though
