Osteodystrophia fibrosa?

Thank you all. I am just going to watch him and see if anything changes. He will be weaned in the next few weeks, so if it's milk goiter it will go away.

Based on what I can see from the pic that doesn't look to me like milk goiter. If it was it would be two symmetrical lumps below the jaw (like where our glands swell when we're sick) rather than one higher up on the jaw.

I tried finding info on Osteodystrophia fibrosa and didn't have much luck. He has been nursing and eating grass in the field so I'm not sure why he would have that.

I TOOK MINE TO THE VET, SHE WAS BORN WITH IT, IT WAS A SALIVRY GLAND. HE SAID THEY WOULD BE ON THE UPPER JAW OR BOTTOM JAW, NEVER SEEN ONE BORN WITH IT. AS SMITHURMOND SAID MILK GOITER IS ALONG THE BACK JAW DOWN NECKLINE. HE IS GOING TO LANCE IT, SAYS ITS' NOT INHERITED SO SHE WON'T PASS IT ALONG, USUALLY CAUSED BY INJURY.

Probably not it, then.. Was just trying to think of anything that causes jaw deformations..
