Hello,
My beardie, Zeke, is 6 1/2 years old and has always been very healthy. I noticed a small lump on his jaw several weeks ago and decided to keep an eye on it. However, this week it’s grown from a small lump to what it is now. Over the course of 3-4 days. He lets me poke at it without flinching or irritation. It’s pretty solid and not able to move around. Could it possibly be a cyst or abscess?

Any advice would be appreciated. I plan on calling a vet tomorrow. His appetite, stool, and mood hasn’t changed.

Thanks!

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
