Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Do you have pictures we can see? Will help better understand the defect. If it is life threatening then you may want to return it for a refund or another one.

it also can be a wound from an old rodent bite. but could be something along the lines of it breaking a bone along the line of its life and healed that way. but keep close check of it. if you see the snake having trouble because of it go to a vet or get a refund form the breeder/store where you got it from. by the way i saw 2 adult BP's with bumps on them and scars and that where so skinny i could get 2 of my fingers around them in the O shape. and they where adults!!. so i got them from the guy and now there doing fine. alittle fiesty lol i get bit every time i handle or feed. but small price to pay for helping and saving there life. there twice as fat as they where when i got them and twice as mean. well good luck with yours.

It is not a skin bump, but skeletal. In a picture, no one would be able to see it. I am hoping it to be a fracture from a while ago, that would at least help me not worry, somewhat. He has no scarring, so it is probably not a bite. Thanks for replying guys.

Does it bother him when you push on it? If not, I would expect that it is nothing but you should probably have a reptile vet check him just in case. I have a Brazilian Rainbow Boa with a bump right near the end of his tail and it is nothing. Some sort of minor trauma that happened at some point or he was born with it.

Nope!! If it doesn't bother him, then it shouldn't bother me. Right?
