So I guess I will wait a few days, or maybe even wait till feeding day, to try popping them so that way there is a better chance that their poop chutes are all cleared out so I won't have to be pooped on anymore...haha.

Oh well, better luck next time, eh?
Sorry, I couldn't help it. Are you sure you weren't pooping him, instead of popping him. LOL!!

Well, it is the ultimate indication of love, anyway.

Haha! Maybe I was...


As he was squirming around, I was getting quite frustrated with him and quietly said under my breath "Hold still, you little sh*t!"...Well, he must have heard me and thought that there was a pretty good way to show me that he was not going to cooperate today...So he proved himself to be quite the "little sh*t"

Haha....well atleast you tried today
As I see it...atleast when he poops on me, I don't have to clean his substrate lol
Just don't give up...if you are making him poop, then you are atleast half way there...you have found the vent, and are most likely holding in the right spot..
Just a litte pressure on the scale above(closer to his head) the vent, and the get your other thumb about a 1/4 inch below(closer to his tailtip) and with some pressure, "roll" your thumb up...
I'm sure if I could do it, anyone can Lol...

I am just soooo wrong aren't I

Duane, atleast you tried...I am pretty sure my BP is a female because I have popped her twice and just the pink puffy kinda thing came out, no hemipenes...BUT we could both just have a "stubborn" male...RobbiesCornField said that probing is best way to tell for sure with BPs...I'd give a few days, maybe just before the next feeding and try again...
I am doing some research on probing now...and may try it sometime in the future.

You're welcome for the post, and I hope it helped.
