thanks for the reply,

The illness part didn't even register, I was thinking pair from the same breeder, so they would have been exposed to each other and should be good
But doesn't mean 1 might get ill and pass it on.

There's a global food, and a Fresh Market here that should fit the description of Asian market, I need to go look there.
