Lump Under Eye???

I was handling Phinius this morning and took some pics of him that I shared in the photo section. Anyway... while handling him I noticed a "lump"? under his eye? Or looks like a "saggy scale"? I don't know what to make of it. I tried to touch it, but I wouldn't want a finger coming at my eye either. He IS in shed, maybe it will dissapear after he sheds? :shrugs:

All I know is that I'm a little concerned, it definately looks odd. I have attached the best pic I could get of it.

Yeah I would deffinately wait till after shed to raise the alarm :D They always get that wierd kinda wrinkled look right before they shed so it might be nothing.

Beautiful snake though :cheers:

I would have to agree. If it's still there after shed, or isn't greatly reduced, I'd get it checked. Otherwise figure in a shed or two it will be gone.

That odd "lump" seems to be gone after his shed. :shrugs:
