Hi, my gecko has something coming out of its anus, each side is symetrical, so im pretty sure its not faeces, can anyone identify what it is?

I cant get him to the vets for a few days so any help would be greatly appreciated

these are the best pictures i can get:





Cheers Joe

ouch! there is both hemipenis outside, that means your male isn't able to re-tow them, you need to put him in cold water with sugar if it's not too late. if so, your vet will cut them (not to get infectious)

looks like a prolapse but also looks like it may be infected. Try an emergency vet?

for sure!

they look brown, maybe they are dry yet (or maybe the pics are darker than reality?)

ok thanks for the replies, so what mixture of sugar to water?

any other hints or tips?

[Dez.G]

I think one sugarcube add to a glass of water.
It worked for several geckos but in any cases you need to see a vet quite soon.

Make the sugar water mixture very thick. You can also use karo syrup, or preparation H or any cream designed to treat hemherroids. These treatments are designed to shrink the tissue and assist in getting the parts to go back where they belong. Unfortunately from the look of it, it's too late for that and it really is a vet emergency.
