Question on a Fox Face

blennymower · 07/30/2009, 12:42 PM

My foxface is eats a lot. You can tell because he has a fat stomach. I have noticed though that its fat stomach is not really smooth, with a couple of bumps. Sort of like you can see the shape of its intestines filled with the waste of the food he is eating. Is this normal? or is it supposed to be completely smooth? If so what can it be?
