    You mean "prolapse" & please take him to experienced herp vet a.s.a.p.

    While waiting for the vet here is what you can do https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...apsed-Hemipene!

    Not letting the prolapse dry off is VERY IMPORTANT

    Some prolapse will go away with the method above some won't or some will re-occur and may require surgery.

    Good luck, I hope he makes a good recovery. Some of these recur, as Deborah said, but think positive.

    Sadly no. I haven’t been able to post for some reason. But he was dead the next morning. I presume “he” still can’t post a pic but whatever it was it looked like a full blown tuner was there

    That's too bad that you were too late to help him.
