Ok so as my last post had been about my 4.5 month old panther cham Bach, had a hemipenis prolapse and underwent surgery to remove that hemipenis on Saturday. All was well he seems to be doing great. So then yesterday I'm doing my daily visual inspection of Bach and noticed his other hemipenis poking out just slightly. I decided to give him a little time and check on him again just incase I caught him in a "private moment" and when I went back to check on him it was still out. I took him out of cage and put some KY jelly on it to keep it moist and make it easier for him to pull it back in, but no such luck. He still has the small portion sticking out. Sooooo now it looks like he will need the other hemipenis removed as well. My question is
- What are the odds of him having both hemipenis prolapse in such a short amount of time?
- Could it be something environmental/dietary that I am doing wrong? I know generally prolapses aren't caused by any certain reason.
I don't care about not being able to breed him, kinda sucks since I know he would be a great cham to stud out. But somehow I just feel like either I am very unlucky or doing something wrong. Dr Alfonso says there is nothing that I would be doing to cause it..but just makes you wonder
