Posted by elaphe4herps on May 03, 2003 at 21:14:56:

My 3-4 year aztec corn that has recently had blood in his stool and been off feed for several weeks. Normally I would not be worried but he has lost so much weight that he might starve soon. I am thinking it to be worms, but there is a hard lump near his vent. About 3 inches anterior to the vent. The lump itself is about an inch and VERY prominent and rock hard. Does anyone know what is causing this and what we should do? (Btw- we keep him on paper towels and feed him on paper towels, i dont think its impaction.)

Thanks, Wes Spinks
