Urgent Care :: What is this?!

[Ranger The Red Ear Slider]

Today when i was dropping in a few carrots for my RES to eat he was pooping and he would i guess push out the poopand after it came out there was this black thing that came out and went back in after he was done. I have never seen this before just when he poops. He's acting normal so i hope its notthing seroius.
So what is that black thing? Is it normal?

I believe that would be his penis. Congratulations, it's a boy!

Lol yeah i know he's a boy but is that normal?

It's not unusual. As long as he can get it back in and it doesn't keep coming out (I mean to the point that it seems it won't stay in) then he's fine.

Yeah it goes back in. And this was the first time i saw it and he did it 2 times when he pooped today.
