poor snoopy is suffering at the moment from the laiser removal of his hemipenes, after 4/5days they where they were is still painfull and the poor boy wont eat anything but he has finally left his house Sad

Aw, well it must be traumatic for him. Personally i couldn't imagine it lol

But im sure he'll come round, i think he must just miss having things rubbed on to him. lol

yeah bless him, poor boy wont even go to the loo at the moment after eating just before he had them removed

i think you could be right on having things rubbed onto them lol

i used to soak my chondros in sugar water when they would prolapse, it worked most of the time! try to make a sugar water paste and smear it on there! i know this is an older post and if you havent gotten it to go back in by now it has probably dried up to the point it can kill your little fella, i hope it is better! but if not, or it happens again try the sugar water paste!

I suggested the sugar water paste early on in the thread but snoppy had to have the hemipenes removed. Wonder if he ever stopped hiding.

ahh, gotcha, sometimes if there is a ton of posts i dont read em all, i guess i will start...that sucks that he had to lose his junk! i would never come out of hiding after that!!! hope he is healthy!

by rickmoss95 Sat Jun 11, 2011 6:00 am

well at least now he doesnt have to worry about "pleasing the ladies", and he can concentrate on being a pet!

by **samsleopardgeckos** Sat Jun 11, 2011 7:34 am
