My boy has had rather a gunky (yellow) snotty nostril since wednesday, but has been feeling and acting well in himself, apart from perhaps being a little less 'full of himself' as he has been recently. He's not running a temperature, and I've started rugging him up a bit more at night to keep him warm, and he's not coughing, just snorts a bit to clear his nose. He lives out 24/7, so is getting plenty of fresh air. He's fed baileys performance balancer which has vits in to help their immunity, and I'm feeding him a bit extra of this. He had a little one day event on saturday (not ideal I know) which he went fine in, just lacked a bit of 'oomph'- so he's having a few days off now.

Is there anything else I can do to help him or have I got all bases covered?! Thanks :)
