african spur tortoise HELP QUICK!!

Question
my 4 yr old african spur tortoise is hatching or pooping a red like egg object!!!!!  it looks like a red slimmy squeshy egg...it is stuck there right now and i dont know what to do....HEP PLEASE!!

Answer
This is called a 'prolapse', an internal organ has been pushed out the tail.

If it is his penis, it is fairly normal for a young 'teen' tortoise to do this- it is called 'fanning'. If he can push it in and out on his own, it is fanning and normal.

If it is another organ, it is a bad thing and should be seen by a vet as soon as possible.

This site does not handle 'emergency' needs well. If you need help in the future faster, try http://www.tortoiseforum.org where there are several people who can help, and often faster than we can here
