Please, I'd be interested in knowing more about the general appearance of the ones with head midline problems like the cleft palates Bobbi mentioned on the FML, the Ferret Mailing List. (This discussion which began on the FHL, the Ferret Health List, is happening on at least two lists simultaneously.) Were the eyes located differently, too? In mammals very often when the head has strongly non-bilateral coloration the aortic arch is compromised, leading to early death for circulatory system reasons.
