In Reply to: Re: sulcata with hemoroids? posted by Martin on September 22, 2000 at 20:29:01:


: : Just today, I noticed something sticking out of my 5 inch sulcata's tail. Is it hemoroids? What should I do?
: You most likely have a male sulcata and what you see sticking out of his anal vent is his penis. Normaly it will go back in on its own. If the tort seems to be haveing a problem retracting it, try putting him in an inch or two of warm water. That should do the trick. If he is still haveing trouble, try a little water based lubricant ( KY jelly etc.) You may also want to find a good herp vet and get him a check-up. The first time I saw a turtle's penis, I thought it's guts were coming out and it was dieing, so I understand your concern. Hope this helps.
