Hello everyone, i have a problem (i assume) with my 6 month old panther. About ten minutes ago i went to feed him his crickets (about 5 3/4 inchers). For the first time since i have had him, he ran up to the screen door and started trying to escape, passing back and forth. It looked like he wanted to come to me, so i opened the door, and he eagerly came onto my arm. This is the first time i've ever even held him. His colors got very bright as well.
When i put him back into his cage about two minutes later, a bright red blob came out of his vent. It was about the size of his eyeball, and after about 10 seconds it went back in. It really frightened me as i assumed it was a prolapse. I would have taken a picture but it was so fast.
By the description, does anyone have any ideas if it was a prolapse or maybe just his hemipenis coming out? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
