....hi i was checking on my leos last night lifted up the hide and there was a red splater on the side of it so i checked th leos...my male had little red bits around his genital area. i reckon its blood he seems fine. I'm pretty sure they've mated. anyone bring a bit more light to this please????

He could have damaged a hemipene during mating. One of them could have parasites. If they were mine I think I would probably arrange a vet visit. In any case I would separate him from the girls so that you can keep a closer eye on him and if it is a damages hemipene then it would give it a chance to heal. I would use kitchen roll as a substrate for him - or certainly nothing "loose" like sand.
i've just cleaned him up propley n there a liitle graze next to the slit.
a few of his bumps on his tail have little grazes too. could this be from the female?

dito for the above.
It may be he had a prolapse which has since gone in, but it still may have done damage. Or she may have "resisted his advances" and caught him in a nasty place while fighting him off.
Either way, vets is probs a good idea.

edit:
Yes they may have fought, so get them seperated til you can see the vet

right, vet said he has damaged his hemipene, he's on antibiotics for 2 weeks gotta go back next week.
she said he could heal fine or heal but not be able to breed (which tbh i'm not bothered about because he's a great leo and getting big so happy just to have him.) plus he could have already done his duty lol.
he weighs 95g at the mo and getting bigger
looks like casanova my be an ironic name lol
