Sand also have a jaw deformity, with a hole in his upper jaw where one of his tooth fits in. Gives him a lopsided look and he's real cute. My vet said not to worry since it didn't interfere with his eating. He's a Real Canadian Ferret from manitoba, canada. When my vet pointed that out to me, she recommend I contact the breeder to find out if it was something in the genes. I did that, and the people there said they've never seen it, but they do check all their ferrets and so on. He also suggested that he might have knock his jaw on a ceramic bowl when he was small. That's all I was able to find out. // *********************************************** // Selina, Birch, Dief, Sprite, Storm, Sand & Bear // http://www.cgl.uwaterloo.ca/~ssiu [Posted in FML issue 2895]
