Looks like a prolapsed rectum?

What other thread?

I would try and get him to vet as soon as possible.

Search for "prolapse" on here to find some threads with first aid/ advice in the meantime.

I'll try and find the threads I'm thinking of but the more of us searching the quicker we find it.

I'm not a vet by no means but from pics I've seen in the past it looks more like a prolapsed rectum.

Get him to the vet....I have never seen this in person but have read about and I just did a search. To me I agree with the other....a prolasped rectum.

Sorry!

But it is serious and time is a definate factor in cutting down on complications.

So, vet - quick as you can. This isn't something you want to wait a week about. Especially with something as expensive as a chamagne.

Also...I cannot remember where I read this...but don't let it dry out either.

Sorry I cannot be more specific...but I do remember that part as well. I will continue to try to do more research. Everything I am finding right now says get to the vet immediately. I did find a do it yourself thing on rcreptiles.com but I did not feel that was a safe way to deal with it.

hey guys thanks for all your help, nice to have some help. He will be seeing a doctor sometime tomorrow. it is 11 at night here and it seems all the emergency vets in this area dont like to have on hand herp vets. I have bunch of place to call in the morning, and we are hoping a friend of mines dad will be around tomorrow cause he is a herp vet and the closet one
