It has been a bit of a mare actually mate! This is a different Hogg.

I noticed when taking the photos of the female that she was clicking heavily when breathing and it looked like the start of a RI which was confirmed by a small amount of foaming in the mouth. I don't know how I didn't pick up on it in the shop, but it was fairly noisy in there when i got her and I didn't check the mouth (lesson learned)

Anyway, they were happy to take her back and get it sorted (they are good down there) and I picked up a male from the same batch. He hasn't got great colours but a clam nature. I'm just not sure it is a male! ARGGHHHHH!

I am going to leave him to settle for a bit and then see about getting him/her probed.

Do you know if there is any sure way of checking they are from the same batch? Would just be good to know when i plan to start breeding. Doesn't help that i don't know the name of the breeder!
