She needs to see a vet IMMEDIATELY! Intestinal or Rectal Prolapses are life threatening. These organs can dry out and worse yet get torn on her cage furnishings. She needs to have those organs surgically replaced.
Until you can get to the vet... keep the area moist and apply vaseline to the prolapse.
Sorry to alarm you! Keep me posted on how she does.
Good Luck!

Dude, you appear to have 2 choices:
1- Get you animal to a vet no matter what
or
2-say your goodbyes
Sorry

Maybe next time you should have a reptile vet all lined up, and an emergency location as well.
Vets can do amazing things and sometimes save things that seem unsavable. Sorry about your loss.
