Hello and a cry for help :(
Hiya, I've recently switched forums from ReptileforumsUK (even though I'm not in the UK) as the entire forum flames me like I can't feel emotions. I'm 13 so it hurts especially bad, my parents won't drive me anywhere and don't really make a great attempt to help when I need help, they blame ME for it and it really hurts... I'm hoping this forum will be friendlier.
I have 8 snakes and 20 corn snake eggs incubating and I need help dearly.
My female mama corn Maya developed a big lump overnight less than a week ago, a week and a half after laying her eggs. She's a small-ish snake, about 3 1/2, although she's laid many great clutches for her previous owner, Steve (Robert) Cox, who is a great breeder and a great friend to have. She's eaten, pooped and shed since the lump appeared, it doesn't hurt her to the touch, it's right on her vent, she's not aggressive, she's perfectly normal other than the lump that's about the size of a marble. I was wondering if it's possible that she injured something laying eggs, and now that bump is helping it heal up? I've looked online and it's not an abcsess or a blister...I'm afraid it's cancer but she's never been exposed to anything that would suggest that!
I sent Steve an e-mail and have a vet on mind that I would go to worse come to worse (the bump is firm). What are the options of it being??? I'm really really scared I love her sooo much she means everything to me but I've not a clue what to do or where to go.
