One of them is making a coughing noise, but I can't tell which one. Is this just a noise they make or is one of my boars actually coughing? My boars were introduced about a week ago and are still settling down. If one is actually coughing, what do I do and what is going on? It sounds like a mini cat is coughing up a hair ball and immediately gets it out.

It has to be my baby Peanut because he has crust on his nose. He is 7 weeks old. I am separating the pigs. What is this? He is going to the vet.
 
I just got back from the vet and Peanut the 7 week old has a URI. It is not bad as I caught it VERY early. I got some meds grape flavor.
 
Glad youve done the right thing by taking him early and being a super vigilant owner, so well done you. I hope your little one returns to good health soon.

In two weeks he should be better. He hasn't stopped eating or anything. He doesn't like the grape meds though.
