grit sized lump on neck?

[anon]

hey ferret lovers!

Looking for your thoughts and opinions?...I have a 7 year old hob ferret (will be 8 in july) holistic fed his whole life since 8 weeks.

FDor the past year he has developed thissmall hard black lump on the scruff of his neck, it has grown in size over the year, i would say its about half the size (maybe less) than a pea (please see pictures)...


He is eating normally, pooping normally, nothing unusual except in the same time range he has developed 'rats tail' which im waiting on a product named 'Ungvita' to arrive in the post to fix...

any ideas as to what this might be?

Might be a mast cell tumor. Best to have a vet check it out. I had a boy who developed one on his foot, and we had it removed.

I think I would have that looked at. It doesn't look like an mct to be honest. Plus those tend to come and go.
