Hi everyone, my RETF has a prolapse again. I noticed it this morning because I was looking for him and he wasn't in his usual sleeping spot on his favorite bamboo tree.
Found him awake on one of my fake plants. So I dug out the 12x12x18 put some moist paper towel and 2 water bowls and just took out the entire fake plant from the terrarium so as to not bother him as much as possible. I took him to the vet last time for this and they charged $50 to push it back in and put a stitch in him. Well they only accept payment upon the vet visit and I don't have any extra $ right now.
I put a pinch of sugar in his water dish, just like I did last time this happened. When I did this last time his prolapse seemed to shrink down a bit.
I called vet already and she said I should try that again and maybe try and push it back in with some gentle pressure.
Besides this, does anyone else have any advice that has worked for them?
