Just thought I would update -

All Corns are the same as they have been. Sneezing, Wheezing, Popping - Not much Drool at all though. They are eating and seem otherwise fine.

We took Sharra, the one that's been sick the longest, in for a CBC. They did a CBC and two blood smears and sent them to Pathology. They all came back normal, all WBC counts were within normal limits, thus indicating no infections.

So, back to a very confusing square one. Not going to pump them full of Fortaz at this point. Going to attempt some x-rays this week to see if we can detect any physical lung damage.
