my pig buck has been coughing a bit lately.... it sounds like he is choking or something.... could it be the cold causing him to cough or maybe his food? they sneeze when i put new stuff in sometimes...but hes been coughing a bit for the last week
 
Re: concerned...

Does he have any other symptoms, like runny nose, or runny eyes? Does he sound crackly when he coughs?
 
Re: concerned...

no...there is literally no other symptoms of anything except he has a weird cough that sounds like hes choking... not crackly but like hes trying to get something up
 
I would take him to the vet and have them look in his throat and see if there might be a small piece of hay stuck or something. Either way, a trip to the vet couldn't hurt :)
