    BP name change

    So when I originally got my 2 newest BPs I took a quick look and with tail length and spur size I though they were 1.1. Well, I am novice at this and was wrong, so now we have 2 males and had to do a name change. I first noticed it when the one believed to be female bgan slightly prolapsing and i could see male parts, but at the doc visit yesterday it was confirmed. They were to osmall to probe when we first got them, and I am not too concerned about breeding since they are my pets, but at least we know that we have 2.1, not 1.2.

    And the prolapse was due to internal parasites, so the vet gave them both (they were housed together at the store) some antibiotics and now we just wait.

    You are changing one of their names? After they got used to it? I can only imagine the psychological trauma it will cause that baby bp!
