I'm worried this is the beginnings of mouth rot, which I'm pretty unfamiliar with. Also not familiar with niger triggers as their teeth begin to come in, which is my only other thought - he's still young and doesn't have them yet, about 4."
I got him about 2 weeks ago from a pretty reputable lfs, and he came looking like this. Initially I wasn't worried, but after looking closer, I am a little concerned.
Sorry about the photo quality, he will not let me anywhere near him, especially with a phone.
