Make sure to keep her in a strict QT for a few months.

Ya that's about like what I was think also Ziggy... I want to wait and see if it changes... I don't run to the doctors for every little thing and so my animals don't get to either... My dog has a couple of lipomas; Hell, I have a few lipomas. It's only fitting that I have a snake with one... If indeed that's what it is! But the bite mark are suspicious...
You said I should have listened to that little voice of caution! Well my head was saying NO; My heart was tugging at me bad, and my gut! ...well I was hungry, I hadn't eaten yet... so ya I can't trust my gut... So you know who won...
You want to hear something weird? I'm 66 years and 6 months old and this will be my sixth snake... It's a good thing I'm not the superstitious type...
