I am not sure that is a real word, but I like it! **smiles**

~Shar


: your sweet little female iguana is telling you that she is a HE ~ that's all! *grin*

: same thing happened to my "female" iguana ... was convinced she was prolapsing and/or falling apart ... nope ... she turned out to be allll boy ...

: what you're seeing are "hemipenes" ... male ig's sex organ ... yep, male igs have *2* penii ... (what IS the plural of that anyway?) ... they're kept tucked inside for the most part and are everted (pushed out) by the ig whenever it feels like it ... and YEP, sure does look like something that SHOULDN'T be sticking out ... looks like guts ... (apologies to all male igs ~ expecially iZ! ~ but it's not a pretty sight ~ *grin*)

: iZ used to do that ALLLLLL the time when he was in the tub after he pooped ... i used to think he was just straining maybe a bit too hard, but later decided it's cuz HE CAN ... not necessarily a bad thing cuz it seems to prevent big seminal plugs from building up ... he'd poop, swish himself in the warm water and smile ...

: if they ever don't go back in after a short period ~ THAT could be a problem ... (just to warn you ~ not that it's ever gonna happen!)

: now you know why so many igs get a name-change ... LOL

: good luck!
: Bon. + iZ (*bobobobob* i think i've been offended! *shudder bobobob*)
