My '11 cinny last ate on the 18th of January. (prekilled)
On the 20th, she started to go into shed very visibly with her eyes becoming completely cloudy. Her head seemed a bit swollen.
I 'assumed' it was from her going into shed, and decided to just watch. Next day she seemed ok, other than in shed, so I didn't think much of it.
Today - head seemed VERY swollen to me (see attached pic) https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/phot...eat=directlinkand while she still isn't finished with her shed, I am growing more concerned that this is NOT just a shed issue. I looked in her mouth and her mouth looks normal, no swelling, discoloration. The swelling is very symmetrical, and is 'squishy' - not hard.
The second pic https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/phot...eat=directlinkis less than an hour later, when the swelling was gone.
So, I'm stumped. I have no way to get her to the vet until tomorrow, and would LOVE some input!!
