    Is this a prolapsed rectum or hermipene?

    Here are some pics of Snakey's sore vent. He/she? is only 9 months old and we took him out on Sunday, he was exploring and pooped a watery poop, like a bird poop, and I noticed he had this gland protruding from him vent. I have seen it before on him, so I thought it was normal, as I really don't catch him pooping. Well, we went to feed him tonight and he still had this gland and it didn't look good. It's been 3 nights so far since I saw it. So I took the advise from this forum and put his tail in a sugar bath for about 30 minutes and then put the sugar paste on him. The middle part was pretty black and that came off after the soaking. It looks like a prolapsed rectum, but then I was confused and thought it might be a prolapsed hermipene. I don't know if he's a boy.

    I will take him to the vet in the morning, so does anyone know what this is?

    Thank you,

    Kim
