Iris (CRB) has turned down food for a few weeks now, attributed it to her history of finicky feeding (from feeding records from the store and what we have encountered here and there) and the change in enclosure...took her out this morning since I was doing some picture sessions with a few others and she was VERY agitated (this happened once before when hubby tried to hold her in the early morning also, she may just hate mornings?) snapped a few pics of the bulge (best I could, since she tried to tag me 5 or 6 times which is NOT in her character at all)...I will try calling our vet tomorrow, but he isn't a reptile specialist, (but has seen her before), and no specialists that I have found yet within a decent driving distance...I work 3rd shift so its really hard for me to drive 4 hrs 1 way to a vet and still get sleep for work

has anyone ever seen this before? I googled, but so far all I have found is a possible abcess, or a congenital heart defect?

no regurge history at all with her, and has been urinating and defecating normally...temperment has always been extremely docile except for this incident and the 1 other morning incident...I'm stumped and worried...
