And she hasent heard of anything about any siblings... I valled the vet agian and she haseny stated that she is somewhat confadent that it id not genitic... she wraped it up like cancer in human's.. :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r: happens.... glad its not a contagious thing wiping out my collection.. and hopefully he is the father of one clutch.
