How old/big is the snake. When you say run your fingers down the stomach, how exactly are you doing this, from the sides or applying pressure to the underside, how many of these lumps and what size are they?
Is your snake of breeding age? Has it been with another snake? Reason I ask is its breeding season and eggs can be felt (though I don't reccommend it), is it even female would be a good place to start? |

To be quite honest, you will lumps in the snakes stomach after feeding him, I'm guessing this would be partly digested/ing mouse?
Where are these "lumps" in the snakes body? As either eggs or the mouse could be a suggestion.
Just a general thing though, you should give the snake at least 2 days peace, as handling a snake that's fed recently could cause a regurgitation, which isn't good for anyone. |
