Thanks for reaching out about Misa. Blood around the cloaca is never normal. Intestinal parasites or infection, blood from the urinary or reproductive tract or a cloacal problem are all possible and a veterinary visit is needed to assess and provide a diagnostic/treatment plan. Check and correct husbandry for environmental temperature, humidity, UVB exposure, and diet. Good luck.
