Welcome to the club and you ain't seen nothing yet!
I had a rough few months with mine when he discovered his Jimmy.
He HAD to show it to me for no reason and not just the tip you talk about... it is a TortHorse... But he kinda grew out of it.
but every once in a while I pick him up and he drops it like a cane; but not for my wife? Ever?
(and he doesn't blink and stares right at me)

I think he loves you
Him staring at you sounds a bit awkward though:D

Can you hear a thunk as it flumps out?

Oh man, that’s a big un:D

Selma doesn’t get the whole thing out just the tip. Does the tip of your torts look like the tip of Selma’s?
No It doesn't actually, id wait till some more experienced keepers give you an opinion. I'm not sure.

Toretto was thought to be a female until one never forgotten bath... then every bath and every poop after that for a couple months he drug that thing around. There were days when I thought I would never get him back in his enclosure because he just wouldn’t put it away... I think it becomes an obsession for a bit when it’s a new discovery..GOOD LUCK!
I laughed out loud at this one!

Yes it is his penis but just the end of it. When u see it it has like a mini plunger on the end of it. Mine gets his out when he’s near my two females. Perfectly ok. As long as the neighbours aren’t watching ....

Haha thank you, a little trick I tried out on Selma is when he’s erm.... aroused let’s say, if you gently push in his head he reveals more of the penis. Not very comfortable for him but it’s better to have it checked and I needed to be sure it was his penis.:eek:

Mine’s trigger was water. If you ran warm water over the area, he let it ALL hang out. I was scared I was getting a new pet. Thought maybe he’d invited a friend to share shell with or something

You can see when Selma’s having a “moment”, he will sit there eyes wide and staring. He also gets it out when I pick him up sometimes, it will go out and in. ( happens quite a few times)

Both my female and male have done it. My male does it when he goes potty. My females has only done it once without going potty. It's really freaky and I thought she was gonna lay eggs! Or her intestines were coming out! I know how tortoise mating stuff goes. And my Koopa tried it with his rock twice. He some times beats up his rock and sometimes squeaks occasionally while attempting to have rock babies.
