I am not sure what you are saying.

I do think yout turtle is fine. just because he is doing the dance doesn't mean he has to perform.

a prolapse is when their intestine come out of their body its a bad thing to happen not a good thing. Are you talking about his penis coming out of his body to mate? Because at 3 years old he is to young.
