Hello all
if anyone that is well versed in dealing with eastern hognose skin issue's could please help it would be grately appretiated.
I just accuired a pair of W/C young adult melanistic eastern hogs and the male is the one I am concerned about
the best description I can give without pic(will post one when I figure it out) is a lump or knot not a blister about the size of a dime the scales are raised at the highest in the center rough esstimation is 1/8inch tall, some dried brown material is present between scales on the lump. my initial thoughts were parasite or fungus??
thanks in advance
