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 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.

i feel so sad reading your about me 😢
Clapton is acclimating okay I think. He's quick as lightning so I'm not sure how much I should bring him out of his house yet. He's not at all interested in his salad though. I wonder if I should change what I'm giving him. Least he's eating his crickets.

Things to do:
Buy calcium powder
Material to raise surface for basking spot
Scenery decals for back of tank
