White fleshy material while pooping...

imadude1134 Dec 18, 2011 04:41 PM

Hey all, I have a 8 yr old sulcata that I have a question regarding.... Seems everytime she poops, there is this white fleshy material that comes out and goes back in. Sometimes its only out for a few seconds, other times up to a minute... It's not the best pic, but I snapped one with my camera phone...

Any ideas?

Looks like the tip of a tortoise penis. Hard to tell for sure from that picture. If you see it often, I would bet that is what it is. Try soaking him in some warm water or holding him with warm water running over tail, see if you see it again.

I agree. It looks like the tortoise's penis. This is a male.
