    My guess would be fungal infection. I'd see a vet

    Parasites, maybe. Vet visit, yes.

    Looks like a very infected, swollen vent. I think a vet visit should be in order to see what's going on. It could be anything, but I've never really seen something like this before.

    He needs to get to the vet ASAP. Imagine what you would do if your privates were looking like that. :rolleye2:

    That would be fine if he'd eaten hambuger for dinner, but since he didn't, get him to the vet ASAP. Don't know what it is, could be many things, but it's not normal, nor is it good.

    Good Luck!

    Errr...


    Remember when you showed us that picture three days ago and we said it needed to see a vet?

    Guess what we still think. :gj: :rolleyes:

    To expand on what Ed said you might want to consider switching substrates to some clean white paper towels if you're currently using something like Aspen. Making sure to check them everyday and replace as necessary.
