Hi! I live in Texas and currently rescued a baby retic in the hurricane! She's awesome and the owner gave her to me after his house was flooded and his vehicles were under water. He stuffed his black throats monitor in a duffle bag and his retic in a box and swam to safety. This baby retic is very sluggish from not having warmth for a day or two and she won't eat. When I examined her I also noticed a huge lump on her back and it felt like a large bone. The owner said she came from a breeder like that and it was just an enlarged vertebrae and she'd grow out of it as she grew! She hasn't eaten in 6 days according to the owner. She has heat in my rack now and has her own hide and water and I think she'll do fine. I'm just a little concerned with her back. Have any of you guys heard of this before?
