Prolapse help!

Hi, so my beard had had a very small prolapse last week, we brought her to the vet, and she got it back in on her own. Today, I checked her vent, and she has another small prolapse. Her attitude hasn't changed, she is still eating, drinking, and playing like her normal self. I soaked her in sugar water and put vaseline on her vent. Everything seems fine except some blood/poo has hardened at one end of the prolapse, making it impossible for her to fix it on her own. How can i help her? Thanks!

My computer is acting up so pictures aren't loading :angry5: But she gets dubia roaches and super worms which fit in between the width of her eyes. Her main food in dandilion greens and carrots (her favorite) She drinks from a syringe daily, she hates baths. Thanks!

Hello,

Poor girl, I hope she is feeling better that cannot be fun.
Are you using a good UVB light & calcium supplementation also?
Her diet sounds good. Are her urates hard or soft?

She gets raw calcium 5 times per week, and calcium with d3 2 times per week. Her usages are usually soft, and we are getting her tested for parisites.

Hello,

Ok, that sounds good then! Parasites that are in a heavy load in the system can contribute to prolapses. When are you getting the fecal done on her?

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
