bump on belly

[tat2ghost]

my beardie has a bump on the left side of her belly
i cant really tell if its hard or soft
she has eaten a lot of crickets today and some brocoli since i ran out of greens last night
she ate some of the brocoli and she has had it before and lots of crickets as ive already said
however she hasnt pooped since shes still very active but she usually poops several hours after eating (in her water bowl none the less) should i be worried
is it just food she is still digesting or is it a impaction
i gave her a warm bath twice tonight and massaged her left side
any help would be great thanks

Hello there,
How old is your beardie?
Is it possible to get a picture of this lump to show us?

hello she is around 4 to 5 months old
you cant see the bump you can only feel it
she still hasnt pooed
im waiting for her to poo and i will feel her again
shes on tile so no substrate could have caused impaction
just the food if thats what it is

That is very odd. Are you sure you are not feeling the end of his ribcage?

 

[tat2ghost]

yes its not like that on the right side
however i just felt it for the first time since last night and its more mushy now
i think she just hadnt digested the brocoli all the way
and i was feeling that and its going away now that shes digesting it more

 

[tat2ghost]

well she just took a huge poop
and the bump is gone
so im guessing it was just food
and no impaction
thanks to everyone
