joe14 98 Posted November 14, 2012 Report Share Posted November 14, 2012 They shouldnt smell too much this time of year cos hobs and jills should be both out of season. Smell of em depends on what their bedded on and their diet also. Quote Link to post
Guest norseman Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 cheers joe i'll keep an eye on it, have changed their type of bedding recently, but their diet is still the same. atb Quote Link to post

Tug 168 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 maybe with it being so mild they are coming into season early just a thought Based on daylight not temperature, so that's not an issue. Quote Link to post
