alpacas: [AlpacaTalk] Re: cheek pockets

When I visited my alpacas today I spent some time feeling this alpaca's jaw and face. I couldn't detect any hard lumps anywhere. The only thing apparent externally is her left cheek has a squishy swollen area. I tried massaging it and it didn't seem to cause her any discomfort. I didn't stick my fingers inside her mouth because the inside of an alpacas mouth is a dark and scary place. ;~) I have an appointment to take her to the vet on Friday and hopefully we can get to the bottom of it.
