I recently acquired a few adult greybands from someone local who was just getting out of the project. I noticed one of the males had some lumps, so he was quaratined. Now ive noticed that two of the female have lumps as well. I dont know if I simply overlooked them, since they are not too predominant, or if they are just starting to emerge. They are all 01 adults who eat well. Does any one know what's going on here, or have any suggestions (other than the vet) for what I should do?

nematodes... take the snakes to a vet and ask him to check it out. If he confirms he'll want to treat them with Ivermectin or similar.
i took one of them in and the vet said it was scar tissue. she is also doing a fecal. which should show nemotodes if that is the problem right?

It could quite possibly just be fatty deposits.....many captive bred adult snakes get them....They are unwanted but sometimes happen. I think low temps and lots of food causes them....
Just a guess,
