I agree that the area in question on Yolandi does appear swollen. Is she housed with any other mice? Is there any chance she could be pregnant ? If not then I would be concerned about the potential of an abscess (infection), or possibly a tumor that could be altering her hormone levels. I would encourage you to have her evaluated by your veterinarian soon. Best of luck and thank you for using Pet Coach.
