Last night when I went in to check on my 14" 'female' sulcata I discovered that a)she is a he and b) his hemipenes were prolapsed. I examined him and his organ was swollen but otherwise appeared to be undamaged. I immediately soaked him in warm water and he's still soaking now (he's been soaking for about 24 hours now). Since soaking hasn't worked I am planning to put him in the syran-wrap-diaper with honey in an attempt to reduce the swelling. If it reduces then I can attempt to help things back in with mineral oil. If that fails, back to soaking he goes until my vet reopens Wednesday (I called this morning to find they were closed for the holiday).
But until then I'm trying to figure out if there's anything else I can do. I think I have the basics of prolapse care taken care of but would be happy to hear if anyone has anything to add.
