Receently trying to bond the two seperate glider couples so i can keep the four together they've been a bit scrappy but nothing too serious however i noticed Luna's got a lump under her eye so made an appointment at the vets for tomorrow to make sure she's alright. Just wondered if it isn't just a scratch and turns out to be an absess whats the likely treatment does anyone know? just a bit worried about the little lady Smiley

A course of anti biotics usually sorts it out. My vet drains them to relieve the pressure but not all of them do.

i'm guessing the answer is yes but is it ok to continue the shared play time and introducing to the other pair?
