I just got a 3 ft GTP that is about the most gorgeous animal I have ever saw, I held her briefly when I took her out of the bag but then let her settle in a few days leaving her alone. I went to feed her tonight and she was spread out and I noticed she has a small lump on her side, near the belly scales and its about 5 inches up from her vent. The lump is not squishy, almost like a small knot though I barely touched it to check. I don't know if its a small hernia or what. It is about the size of a popcorn seed. Also the 3 belly scales beside it seemed more bunched than the rest of her belly scales so I am thinking its an injury or something. Any advice? The vet is not open till Tues cause of the holiday.
