It’s squishy and feels like it’s just a blister filled with fluid. I’m not sure what could have caused it, or what it really is.
The heat mat I use for their tub is controlled by an on/off thermostat and is set to 90°F.
I have checked to make sure the heat mat was not overheating, and it does not feel hot to the touch at all so I know it isn’t a burn injury.
Hmm, just a curious as you are. My spotted python has something very simular looking that she has had for years. Usually I don’t notice it until she gets close to going blue at which point it becomes a lot more pernounced. In her case my guess its some sort of cyst just under the skin, does not seem to bother her at all so I have just been keeping an eye on it.
Interesting. This only showed up within the past day or so, at least I didn’t notice it until this morning. I just want to determine if it’s something that would warrant a vet visit, if so I’ve made arrangements with the lady that purchased them to give a partial refund on the pair to go towards vet bills.
