Box Turle Genitals Popped Out

So my box turtle popped out "his" junk recently. He lives outside, but I had him inside on the kitchen floor if that matters. He's pretty active normally and he usually tries to bite my fingers especially if I pick some weeds or mix up the dirt in his enclosure.

Pics or it didn't happen...

Lol. Do you watch tosh.0? There was a tortoise on this weeks episode with its wang out and ended up squirting all over the place. Pretty funny/gross

Reading your previous posts gave me a headache, please post pictures so we can take you seriously.
I don't think anyone wants to write you a wall of text so you can ignore it and/or start a huge argument over it.

Friend of mine has a box turtle that does this. What are you concerned about? Unless it's not going back in, it's not a huge deal. Sometimes a male's body does things that are beyond their control, and it's perfectly natural :gj:

I didn't have a camera on me, and they did go back in. Any idea why it happened in the first place? Him and the larger male do try to mount each other occasionaly. The larger one would mount the smaller one all the time in late winter early spring when they were inside. Now I occasionaly come home from work to find the small one on top of the big one (neither has any success at it ;) ). I assumed they were male and female but after seeing the smaller one's junk I now know they are both male.

And as a side note that was a rare endangered tortoise form Madagascar that are illegal to export. http://www.bbc.co.uk/nature/14293351

It's normal, Eric. Turtles and tortoises are just naturally ....free...with their self expression. :giggle:
