Rumble in the Chest

[bluepez]

One of my jrs and a sr in my barn have this rumble in their chest while eating their treats I noticed this morning.

IS this a sign of snuffles?? No discharge from noses..the sr..one of her eyes..is just watery..but no colored discharge.

Im taking them into the vet tomorrow..but I dont want to waste $ if its a possible snuffles..for there is not a cure..and I do not want that in my herd.

Can the rumble be something else??

I don't understand what you mean by "rumble in their chest." Was it some sort of respiratory sound? Digestive? A vocalization?

when they are eating..you can hear them breathe as they eat..and you can feel it when you place your hand on their chest as they eat.
