Most of us use tapatalk to post images on mobile. Otherwise it seems to work well to upload to imgur and post a link to the album.

You can't paste it. You have to click on the insert image icon and enter the url of the image. You can also upload it to your gallery in your profile.

example this is the url to an image in my gallery https://ball-pythons.net/gallery/fil...1/img_1595.jpg

here it that image inserted using the image icon entering that url

That looks like a severe prolapse-- this little snake needs to go to the vet ASAP.

Something we use in the human world .. not sure it works for snakes ... is you sprinkle sugar on the protruding tissue and it safely shrinks it back in. However anytime there is straining it is at risk to come out. And at this rate, the snake might need a shot of antibiotics to make sure that doesn't get infected, or steroids to reduce inflammation.

I agree with FollowTheSun's post above, but is this picture how it looks NOW? or how it looked BEFORE? I thought you said it went back to looking fairly normal???
If this is current, this snake needs vet NOW. Waiting so long to help is asking for infection & poor outcome...

And yes, the sugar is supposed to work on snake prolapses too, btw. But many snakes just keep re-prolapsing without vet help, & even some WITH vet help.
This is fairly serious and especially since it has now been 10 days since you started this thread.

I'm thinking that it's possible that the original object you described was a urate stone, but the efforts (yours & his) to expel it caused a prolapse...?
And I daresay you need to immediately STOP "massaging his insides" to promote defecation...

Oh dear god.... yeah... that snake needed a vet yesterday....insides should stay on the inside.... *walks off shaking his head*
