A couple of weeks ago, my Australian Barking Gecko went off of his food, followed by the first bad shed he's had since I've had him. I tried him on different foods but the only thing he'd eat were crickets which he then regurgitated. He also developed a lump under his chin/on his throat. This...

Hi, I took in an adult female californian kingsnake yesterday as the owner had a loss of confidence as she had tried to bite someone so I decided to take her in since I had been looking for a new snake. I was told that this was the only issue with her. I had been to see her eat and she had just...

Hi I've got a corn snake and she has developed a lump near her vent, It only looked small but she's just shed and it now looks much bigger. It's squishy and doesn't seem to be causing her any pain anyone got any ideas what it is? The vet can't see her until Friday so I was wondering if it was...

Hi guys so I left my house yesterday (Saturday) at around 2pm and arrived home today (Sunday) at around 2pm checked on my 4 yr old corn Snake to see that his basking lamp had blown :gasp: his temp was 10°C and he was freezing cold :cry: so I put the heater on full blast rang the pet shop and...

I apologize in advance for the long read. My dragon has a soft lump on the inside of his mouth way near the back of his jaw. I have included a picture. The black thing is dried blood that I could remove with a q-tip,but I thought it better not to be in his mouth any more than I have to. The...

Hey everyone! I don't think I've actually posted any text here before; I usually just do images. But today I have something a little bit different. My grey banded kingsnake, Kerrigan, has a lump. It's bulbous, internal, and growing. She hasn't eaten solid food since the lump appeared a few...

I have had my kingsnake Harvey for a couple years now and this is the first winter she has stopped feeding and brumated. I have noticed some small bumps along her sides and I'm not sure if it's something to be worried about. I will try to get some pictures up of the lumps soon but she is in...

A couple of days ago I noticed my corn snake has a bit of swelling about 3 inches from the vent/anus. I've checked today and it looks worse. It's fairly soft and he doesn't seem to be in pain or bothered when I touch it. I was told he was male but in truth I have no idea. He wouldn't feed last...

Hi all, I'm looking for some help with one of my snakes who has had a rough couple of months. I will be taking him to a reptile vet since this issue has been discovered but i would like some opinions and advice in the short term. Male Texas Leucistic Rat Snake, approximately 8-9 years old...

I have noticed 2 uneven lumps in my snakes tail. It's been there for around a month, but while she's so small was hard to notice, I followed the steps about making her bath in a warm bath, and helped her get most of her tail shed off. I don't know if these lumps are due to her bad shed while she...

Hi Guys, I was wondering if anyone had experience of a snake with an abscess? My awesome king snake is in a bit of a bad way I fear. I took George my Cali King to a reptile vet about 3 weeks ago due to a lump in her tail just below the cloaca. I had emailed the vet in advance and he advised...

Hello everybody :) I guess the title is pretty self explanatory - one of my corn snakes has had a strange lump for a couple of weeks now, which seems to have gotten larger since his last feed. Since it's grown I've temporarily postponed his feeding but as far as I can see it hasn't gotten...

Over the past month or so my boa developed a tiny little lump on his back, it was only ever obvious when you ran your hand down his back and I assumed it was the result of a scrape or something. He was still eating and pooing as he would normally. Over the past few days the lump looked to have...

Hello all, first post so bare with me! I have some concerns about my corns health and so far am struggling to diagnose it. His names Joey, he's roughly 4.5ft I'd say and about 14 years old. Recently almost every time he eats his mouse (fed once roughly every 2-3 weeks, extra large mouse by the...

Hi guys, I am worried about my boy Poison, he is a Madagascan Giant Day Gecko who I have had for almost 4 years so he is 9-11 years old. This last few weeks a lump has developed on the underside of his tail, close to where is meets the body. The lump is a small pea size. Any ideas? We...

Hello! Over the last couple of days, I have noticed that my leopard gecko has formed a lump under his right eye. I went on holiday 4 weeks ago, and had a friend looking after him while I was gone. He seemed fine when I got back, 2 weeks ago, but in the last couple of days I have noticed a pea...
