Frank is sneezing, I thought he was hissing at Oscar, just had look at him and he smells bit fishy around his bits. Any ideas?
 
The bits at which end of the body, please?

Sneezing in itself is not yet a sign of a respiratory infection. It can be simply down to some hay dust etc. Keep an eye on him and see whether he develops any other symptoms.
 
I bought them some Timothy hay today they've not had that before, they had meadow hay, so that could be it, I also use wood shavings which I've read on here some where can be a cause.
 
Please very gently clean out his boar bits with some warm damp cloth! Unfortunately, this is a job you need to do regularly!
 
thanks getting used to them, so much to learn, for small creatures they take alot of caring for, but they are such lovely creatures and I love watching them
