Nick...Yes I have. Seen it and dealt with it personally. If you ever deal with a large boid with LOWER respiratory (pneumonia) you will too. It sounds more like a deer blowing if you have ever heard that though. Kind of a raspy snort cough. No watery snot...just deep down thick yellow congestion. Evidence eventually will get sprayed around on the walls and glass a bit but really no snot bubbles and excess watery mucous like you see in upper RI. Take in a green burm and within 3 or 4 years or so when it's immune system goes bye bye, you will fully understand what I'm talking about. I'm not in any way saying this is the case with this particular animal. Just something to look for if it continues and more evidence arises. In every case mentioned, including this one, I strongly suspect parasites pupating into the gut but I wouldn't be so bold as to discredit other possibilities just from reading a brief semi-vague description.
