A prolapse requires a vet

That definitely looks like it’s insides, can you tell is about the beardies diet? If he’s eating lots of worms exclusively that can make them over extended their bowels and cause prolapses. :(

He eats collard greens, cucumber, zucchini, carrot, rocket, cabbage etc. He also eats 2-3 mealworm every day. In weekend he eats bugs.

He eat mustard greens last week. He didn’t like it. And this problem happened. Is it because of mustard greens?

How old is the dragon? If hes younger than a year NO more meal worms -- he needs insects every day but for now I would hold off on the insects-- feed soft foods only like baby food chicken bady food squash -- you can soak him in sugar water that will make the prolapse retract -- but I would get him in for now to the vet -- the diet is causing the prolapse -- NO more cabbage or cabbage related cucumber will cause watery stools like lettuce which has no nutritional value good for hydrating only --- -- here is a website for nutrition

ignore the kale thing its a good staple feeder -- Meal worms should not be fed every day you need a staple feeder like crickets dubias BSFL or silk worms---

NO they are a main staple feeder -- it is the meal worms --- and cabbage its too hard on the system too much roughage

He is almost 2 years old. I gave him apple. It helps for pooing. By the way he get all thing by himself in a few seconds after pooping. I will take care your advice and ı will check the website. He eats cabbage one time every week but ı dont give him anymore. And try to not give mealworm but he doesn’t like eat greens thats why ı give him and trick him with the mealworm.

Every bearded dragon poop before brumation. But mein didn’t. And ı try so hard like everyday. Then one day he eats his meal and go to sleep. I didn’t notice he try to brumate. And what to do. Thats why he eat meal before brumation. Maybe ıt could be the reason.

Dont feed him anything for now --- check out the website for nutrition I posted -- so hes old enough to eat the meal worms but dont feed him now let the prolapse go back in --- get him into the vet I posted a website --- dissolve the sugar in hot water let it cool down to warm and soak him it will help the prolapse retract -- has it gone back in now? You can take a Q tip and gently push it back in but soak him in the sugar water first ---- No more cabbage ---

Okey. I don’t feed him. And ı wont feed him with cabbage. There is no prolapse out right now. He pulls prolapse by himself after pooping. If ı can take you video you will understand but ı guees it is because of my english. Oley ı will go to vet.

Do hemipenes come out when pooping? I thought that only happens when they’re in the mood, like sadie said get rid of the cabbage, its no good and was possibly the cause of his upset bowels
