Cindy,

Unfortunately, it's not just heredity that may cause stones. While  
heredity *might* be a factor, there seem to be no real links. Stones  
affect un-neutered piggies (male and female), unrelated piggies and  
don't seem to be breed-specific - although I've had particularly bad  
luck with Teddies.

The best thing for Tumbleweed is to make sure he gets plenty of water,  
some exercise, and keep an eye on him. Hopefully it is *not* stones,  
but perhaps some sludge now and again.
