Well What ended up happening is that we ended up amputating his hemipenis. He recovered from surgery very well and fast.... Although he did not eat last night, he was out and active.

I was given some anti biotics that i will give him orally for 10 days to prevent infection. I also bought a liquid calcium suppliment just in case his calcium gets low from not eating...

Im hoping he eats his CGD tonight.. otherwise ill be worried because he stopped eating regularly when he prolapsed.



As far as parasites and stuff like that.. i will get that checked out in a few weeks. What are the signs of a crested having parasites? Also, What would cause muscle weakness?

Any advice would help!



Thank you.
