Ewes coughing

[irish dom]

Weaned a batch of ewes last week. Gathered them today to go through and take culls out. The amount of constant coughing going on in the yard worries me. Would it be lungworm? Reminds me of hoose in bucket reared calves. Just very unusual. Any thoughts on it?

Probably lung worm, it’s about the time....when were they last wormed?

Don't routinely worm ewes here. Only dose for fluke in the autumn and winter and worm the hoggets rearing lambs when I drench their lambs. Gonna drench these friggers for lungworm very soon
