popping or probing....

WEEBEASTIES Jul 17, 2006 03:47 PM

which is better for baby balls? I've done probbing but not on babies. Any ideas or advice? I'd hate to hurt them.

Get someone to teach you how to pop, its very easy to do on hatchlings and even on up to yearlings. Easier, quicker and a little safer.

good for sexing males. If you pop a female, you better probe it as well. You can even get burned by the big guys. Just remember, "You can't pop females."
