Hemipenes abscesses?
Are hemipene abscesses in breeder males while breeding on Aspen bedding likely? Or is it very non-occurrent?

No common but it can happen.
I use new paper for animals who are paired which means one less thing to worry about.

Like Deborah said, it's uncommon but not impossible. As long as you keep the cage clean and the snake in good condition, you shouldn't see any issues.

Well I think I'm switching to newspaper at least for breeding season. The issue now is, my business partner thinks it's unnatural, but neither is ball pythons living here.

Exactly having them in racks or glass enclosure is far from being natural same with having them on aspen

I agree, I stick with newspaper because it can't bet pulled in by accident. I really prefer newspaper for all of my snakes. It's one less thing to go wrong.
