Does link have an upper respiratory infection? If so that weezing may be around for a while depending the antibiotics he is on.

no...vet thinks that he had substrate stuck in his nose from the past owner, since it was there when i got him...she(vet) put him on baytril shots and vitamin B complex shots...but i am keeping an eye on him still...:)
