Hi Everyone,
Ok...I bought a boa the other day and she was shipped to me yesterday. When I opened the box, I noticed a lump on one side of her body on her right side between the 5th and 6th saddle. I have never seen that before. Has anyone else?
She was born at the end of April so she's a just a little squirt. She did not appear to have a lump in the ads (She was posted on KS). I sent them the same pictures. The person that I bought her from has no idea what it is. I'm talking with him to determine what we should do.
She has not eaten in about 11 days, so it's not a food lump. It is soft but not mushy. I can apply light pressure but do not leave a "dent" in it. Yesterday the boa appeared not to care if I touched it...today she was a little touchy. I don't want to stress her out more but picking her up but I am concerned as to her health.
My thought is that maybe she broke a rib or two in shipping...take a look.
