now i really need some help. i dont knwo whats wrong with my turtle and if anyone even has pics of wat it might be to post i would appreciate it, I unfortunately cannot post pix i have no way of getting them onto my comp.

it really looks like one of my male RES is going to the bathroom #2

but then i saw it was HUGE like a giant brown mushroom was comming out of his hole.. and i mean HUGE it was at least as long as hiss shell.... when i came closer to examine itt i thought it might be his intestines but after i came closer he PULLED EVERYTHING BACK INTO HIM! and then went to the female of the tank and tried his mating dance routine. now he just has a little turd lookinng thing comming in and out of him... io hope to god hes not sick or dieing please if anyone can help id appreciate it

Thanks for your help

I am sure you have seen people post this sort of thing before.
It sounds like he is fanning his penis.

Should this come out and then NOT go back in you will need immediate vet. assistance. But what you are describing is normal activity as long as it is coming out and going back in again.

Hi thank you very much and yes it went back in and he's fine so far, i went a read up on it.
thank you for your time
