Was reading the teeth trimming thread, and wanted to make sure my three are okay before putting them back outside to prepare for release again. :)

My camera stinks, so pics aren't very good. First two pics are of Big Girls teeth:

Finally, here's Papa. There's a few extra pics of him...he was all about it...rotten little thing! There's one where it show his hind legs. His muscles seem to protrude out so much. Does that look normal? Thanks!

He seems okay to me...maybe a bit long on the lowers :dono
The tips of the teeth were hard to see
As far as his hips are concerned
He may just be built with a wide baboose!
Nothing outside of the realm of normal IMO
He's quite the handsome devil!!:D
What a charmer!

I get a kick out of seeing them sit on their bums like that...

:rotfl :rotfl :rotfl :rotfl The 5th pix of Papa all he needs is a beer, cig, and a remote:rotfl :rotfl :rotfl

BG looks great ready to go

LG I'm so happy she is feeling so much better. If she is easy to handle like that a few quick swipes with a file would even those toothies back out. You can use a good fingernail file for that. Just be careful of her tongue and cheeks. Squaddy help would be best.


Papa is awesome I'm in love....sorry I still can't figure out or see what you think is odd about his rear end. He looks super to me.:grouphug

I agree with the file, I use a metal revlon round tip shaper type nail file.
The muscles look good...I will take all 3! Thank you!:D
a few twiggs to chew, a cuttle bone or antler tip will probably take that uneven tooth down too.

:rotfl :rotfl :rotfl Don't tell Papa that! They always try to get my cigarettes! LOL! Papa is always laid back. Nothing really even spooks him like it does the girls. I hope he makes it in that big world out there! One positive thing-he will NOT let the girls take his food! :)

BG is acting like she's ready to go. Yesterday she got out of her room and every time I tried to pick her up she would scoot away from me! She went all the way upstairs! eek! Little Girl is doing awesome and she's a squaddy's girl. He's her favorite, and she is his.

I'm probably just overreacting with Papa's hind muscles. I think he's just the one that's a normal size. 500 and something grams?? I forget. The other two are over 600 grams. Big difference between Papa (smallest) and BG (biggest).

When squaddy comes in, I'll TRY to get him to help so I can file. He's the only other person she likes. He wouldn't help earlier because he thought I was being mean by taking the pics. I always have antler and fresh branches in the cage for them....wondering if she chipped it gnawing on her cage bars?

Thanks! :grouphug :thankyou

Good! Thanks so much! I was SO scared I was going to have to try to trim them!~ Scary thought-shattered teeth....ugh!
They just lapped up some FV and yogurt. RANDOM>>>> Anyway, I have one nail file, and it's a 180 grit large black file. I can try it...but if you don't think that will work, I'll go get a smaller metal round tipped one. Thanks again!

Thanks mugz! The pics weren't very clear. :( Papa is my sweetheart. He's so adorable that we've considered trying to keep him, but I feel like they need to all have the option of freedom. He's thought to be a little "special", but we'll see. I'll be out there every day possible to monitor him to be sure.
