Hi my boy has a lump on his belly, it's soft and movable. He seems pretty normal. I don't know what it could be. It's above his skin, but I don't see anything coming out of it.

If it's soft and moveable, it could just be a fatty lipoma. They are nothing serious.

But I would DEFINITELY keep an eye on it to see if it hardens, grows or changes colour if you can see that. If anything changes, get him to an exotic vet.
