[starla728]

No has always been very healthy untill about a week ago. and he just dosnt want eat much if at all. mom is very worried and I dont know how to help. She has a female that had gotten a bit sick but, she started eating again.. Any help would br great

Does he look like he is continually yawning or is it more like a cough?

 

[starla728]

more like a cough

Well that could be several things. They need to be wormed at the very least. There are many threads & posts on worming. I would start with Safeguard and then use Ivermectin.

If the cough sounds like there is fluid involved or if there is any swelling around the eyes and face, I personally would administer Tylan.
