I noticed Artimus pooping today and I went over there and he took this gigantic crap and I went to take a closer look at he was dragging his butt on the ground. Well, he went back over to where he poops, his back right corner, and he started and only a little came out but then i saw pink and i noticed that he was pooping out himself. What the crap is happening? He was craping and it came out then when he was done it went back in and he started walking fine, he started basking again. I have him in the tub right now to maybe ease himself if he needs to poop again, i'm going to call a vet asap and see what he can do. I just wanted to know what the hell is going on?

yes its normal, its his hemipenes, males do this quite frequently when defecating, all my male albigs do it when they defecate from time to time.
ask bob how to remove them with tweezers. haha j/k
That what you saw is a sexual organ, either a males hemipenis or a females hemiclitoris. They tend to stick them out from time to time especially while defecating.
No need for the vet unless you want to have him or her fixed.
hehe, Sounds like he needs a female.
