Noisy breathing

One of the pygmys I purchased last year has some sort of issues with breathing(you can hear her, especially if she gets too active, like running around). I've treated her with LA200 and it didn't seem to make a difference. I also have dewormed her with Valbazen and Ivomec in case it was parasites. I was also thinking maybe hay, but she does the same thing on pasture. She always has a fat belly, but she's a pygmy. I wonder if it is heart problems. I believe she is about 6 years old. Any ideas on other possibilities would be greatly appreciated. Other than her breathing she seems very healthy and keeps good weight. She had three healthy babies this year and is a great mom.

Sounds like time for a trip to the veterinarian.
