    did she get loose? is there anything missing from her enclosure that she may have eaten?
    any emergency vets in the area who can x-ray her or do an ultrasound?
    scary
    good luck

    I did some research and it looks like hard belly. Maybe someone more experienced can help, but from what I've read if that is what it is, then you will have to massage it out. Downsides it can split the belly and you will either have to sew wounds and belly shut or kill it. Like I said wait for someone more experienced, but that looks like hard belly. Is the belly hard?

    It's not exactly hard. It kind of feels like she's filled with air? She hasn't gotten out and her husbandry is spot on. Basking 89 cool side 81 60 % humidity give or take. I'm so scared for her. She's the one that started my addiction.
    There aren't any emergency vets that deal with exotics of any kind.
    What could I have done wrong??
