It varies retic to retic. Some never do, some usually do...some will grow out some won't. Sorry that there isn't a real answer.

Is it a defensive poop (i.e. aimed at you, smeared on by a thrashing tail, and ground into the fabric of your clothes by a pissed retic) or is just a dump? Sometimes I find that simply letting them explore a bit stimulates their bowels (which I use to my advantage when I can; I'd rather have them crap in the yard).
