Last Fh I owned had teeth like that.. it wasn't a full row or anything it was like 3-4 visible teeth. Bastard left a hell of a mark when it bit me.

The ones with visible teeth are not good when breeding. Some will rip the mate's mouth up bad. I know from experience something to watch out for. When they lip lock they rip lips!

You need to feed high calcium foods to get big sharp teeth.


Steve - is that the FH that you currently have up for sale?
