Default Re: Swollen Scent Gland - Winter White

The swelling to the side is not normal and it does look to be infected. I'd have him seen by the vets. Keep the cage very clean when the gland is open like that and bathe a few times a day. I wouldn't advise poking it with tweezers or squeezing too hard as if there is a pocket of pus in there it could rupture inside and cause things to get worse.
