When i checked up my gecko's yesterday. i noticed something strange. The cloaca of my mac sow male was swollen.
He normally has a pretty big cloaca but now it is extremely big and it has a reddish color.
Has anyone seen anything like this before. i'm thinking about visiting a vet with this animal.
Here are the pictures

It does look quite large. I have seen some that big. My crested gecko has a huge bump also. Lets see if anyone else knows.

I appears to be a swollen hemipenis or something in the pocket where it is. This could be a cyst, a blockage or a large semnial plug. A trip to the vet is in order.

I would definitely get that checked by a vet. I'm sure the vet will be able to help.

By the way, here is what a seminal plug looks like.
