Re: Corn Snake Has Hard Lump
My vet recommendations were “no feeding” during antibiotic treatments—all three of my snakes were off food during treatments. You better check first before feeding. Remember, the patients can go for a few weeks with no food and still survive!

My sister never heated her. When I started taking care of her, I gave her heat. She was kept with a warm spot of 88-90 F and the cool end is usually around 70. There is a pretty decent temperature gradient in between that (measured with temp gun). Since this happened, I raised her warm spot to like 92-93. So she has had good temperature conditions for a couple months now, so through many feedings.
The lump is probably between 1/2 and 2/3 of the way down. Like I said, the organs in that area are the pancreas, stomach, and intestines.
