    Unhappy Should I be worried??????

    Well I've had Osiris since April 19th everything is going extremely well I've had two sucessful full sheds he's been eating good and is not afraid of me when I handle him. But just yesterday I fed him a live juvenile rat (his third one with me) he ate him with no problem just the same as the others but today when I look at him he looks a little extra swollen than usual.... to me I looks very uncomfortable and I'm a little worried conditions in the tank are normal. The only thing that has happened recently is that the temp on the warm side reached about 100 the other day but I quickly got it back to normal would that have anything to do with the extra swelling or am I just worried over nothing??

    he could just be bloated, or gassy. ive noticed my female BCI do this a few times. just give him time, keep right temps etc, and wait for the lump to go down. other than that not much you can do. dont really worry about it, unless its like 2-3times his size.
