    What the heck!
    This guy hasn't eaten for me since I got him 2 months ago, I figured that was normal as he had been breeding before hand... I got him out 2 weeks ago and noticed that his vent looked a little odd but when I went to put him back he musked and I figured that his tail just looked odd because of that. But when I went to clean his tub out today I saw this:

    Is this normal or should I make a Vet appointment?

    That looks like a trip to the vet to me.

    I would fine a good reptile vet ASAP. Get that looked at - it does not look healthy at all.

    Could that be a prolapsed cloaca?

    Working on find a vet now...

    Not sure if it would be a prolapsed, most that I see are of tissues protruding out. Any other suggestions it might be would help too, that way I have some idea of what's going on and can ask a vet about...

    He passed away Friday morning and has been sent off for a necropsy. Sorry for the lack of updates, I was devastated. This was my Yellow Belly boy...

    So I got an unoffical email from an assist on the necropsy. I gad called on Friday and spoke with him asking if they had finished and that I was worried because I had another snake that I had purchased from the same person. He said that they were doing it that afternoon and that he would try to send me a email once they had completed.

    Negitive for crypto! Negitive for IBD! I was so worried about those two since i know so very little about what they look like.

    He said it looked like an infected hemipenis and that they were going to run some test to determine more. He asked if we had recently bred him or tried to pop or probe. I told him they he was bred before we got him and that I had never probed him. He said he was also dehydrated and said he may not have been drinking or eating if he was in pain. I told him that the first month he was with us he had passed urates but this last month he hadn't.

    Im sorry for Any spelling mistakes and typos, im on my tablet with no spell checker and i cant scroll up to reread anything
