I think Veronica just showed me her manhood. I'm guessing she's only a few months old. Is it possible for "her" to fan me at such an early age?

I don't think it's normal for a female's internal organs to come out. It's normal for a male to do what is called fanning. Either way, as long as it has gone back in there's no reason for concern other than well as you said, you may have a boy and not a girl but in the long run that may not be such a bad thing :)

Well at first I just thought she was pooping but the tiny thing that came out of her was a dark brown (her waste is usually a ligher brown). Whatever it was did go back inside and has not been seen since.

I'm nervous about finally sexing her because um, if she's a boy I have no idea what I'm going to re-name "her".

Internal organs coming out (a prolapse) wouldn't be normal. It does sound like, from what you described, that you have a male. :)

That would allow me to incorporate my guilty pleasure Vin Diesel. *blush*

You KNOW you wanna name him after Vin...go for it. I thought that was pitch black in the avatar hehe... cool movie and I really liked #2 too...i hope they do #3...

Hec I named all of my turtles after ninja turtles...

I wanna get a beardie and name him after Ben Grimm....

as for the boy thing. I've noticed they'll even use their package to push out the dooies! If the turtle's got a really long tail, cloaca way out beyond the plastron, it's a guy....and from the appearance of his wang, I'm sure it is.

I loved Pitch Black, like so much. Chronicles took awhile to grow on me but after seeing the Director's Cut I'm even more in love with it. I'm hoping they do a third movie as well.

As for Veronica's sex...I'm going to wait a few more months and see if there's another appearance of um...manhood.
