    Re: I need a Los Angeles Vet for my ball python.

    Since she's ~6 ft (Maybe 5'5"), I was going to upgrade her to a 4' maybe 5' enclosure from the 40 gallon long breeder. I've also been letting her out more often since she's antsy lately. But then this happened.

    I also was going to get rid of her substrate completely. She hates it anyway. But she's also an escape artist and rarely sits still, so might be hard getting her to cooperate with anything. Always like this since I got her. Might be hard getting pictures.

    It's only on one side of her body. It's a rough guess. I'm hoping it's not something more serious. I've had her since she was a baby (though I bought her). It's lump on one side, in the tail section just after the vent. She doesn't like me touching it. It's about the size of a quarter.

    I have a sliding screen system, but she figured out how to unlock the sliding screen system through sheer persistence. (Also the need for the cage upgrade.) I had to weigh it down with textbooks.

    She's scheduled for an appointment today. I'm a bit worried because she's an older snake. And I'm not sure if she might need surgery or not. Anesthesia+reptiles often doesn't go well according to the shows I've watched.
