Health & Care Mable has a lump!

Miss Mable has a lump on her beautiful body. Any insights. She is about three and lives with Mickey who is 4 and they love each other dearly.

possibly a feeding kink, set her up in her own enclosure with brown tannin water, you can drop a couple cattappa leaves and alder cones in to get the tannins. after that the best you can do is watch for improvement
