I talked to my vet and he seems to be pretty sure my boy dragon has to get one of his hemepenis' removed. Will he still be able to reproduce with only one? I've looked everywhere and can't seem to find an answer.
Why does your male need to have one hemepenes amputated, did he prolapse it or injure it?
He should still be able to reproduce assuming the other hemepenes is viable.
I forgot to ask the vet while I was on the phone with him, but it's prolapsed and terribly dried out, I've only had him for about a week when someone I knew was giving him away, so my boyfriend and I were eager to get him since we have two females and wanted to breed them when they had gotten old enough to. When I went to go pick him up it shocked me of how he had treated the poor thing. It had no lighting at all, no water, no kind of heat source, was pretty emaciated and wasn't lively in the least. In the past week he's obviously started to gain some weight and is considerably more active, but i noticed the shriveled to nothing member about three days ago and called the vet to get him in as soon as I can.
Thanks for the help!
