So my c sellatus had gotten impaction, I cleaned him up every time & one time it shot out poop. Today he’s clogged up again, his abdomen looks to be see thru. Also I have noticed blood in the center under his abdomen. Is he dying? Is he in pain? Is it time to euthanize? I’m so lost I can’t really find information on this. I’m not even really sure if it’s impaction or something else. His abdomen is like a grape, plump and kind of see thru. It has a blood like red spot under it. He seems super lethargic. He can usually climb up his little treasure chest like he’s arboreal but today he couldn’t even get the strength to climb over it. Thoughts? I don’t have any pictures bc I was too baffled to even reach for my phone. I’ll try to get some later.</p></blockquote><p></p>
