My beardie is a little over two years old and is fed every other day w greens and crickets . Today when i got home and took her outside i noticed she has swollen up on the left side of her body above her tail . I took her inside and put her in a warm bath to see if it’s because she’s backed up with stool and that didn’t seem to be it . Any suggestions??

Hello,

That is very odd. It just appeared just today?
What types of foods are you feeding her?
Do you know if she has fallen off of anything & hurt herself in any way?
Please review your tank setup with us such as the type & brand of UVB, temperatures & the
foods you feed her.

Is it tender ?

Is it hard or soft ?

I think if is likely an injury or impaction .... A visit to the local vet is definitely your best next step .... the vet will be able to examine her and take ultrasounds and xrays and perhaps a small needle aspiration if it not an injury or a hard mass and from that work out the most effective treatment.

Keep us posted.

Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
What is a quick way to warm up a cold beardie? His heating element went out overnight and now he's very cold.
