    Does this mean shes a he?
    Hey all I have been using search for quite some time and have only found one thread on what I am about to ask. sorry if its a topic that's been discussed before. here goes..

    This morning my pretty girl Bertha made quite the pee, whilst cleaning up I found what look like sperm plugs or genital shed. When I got her she was popped by the breeder and only got the scent glands. I have popped her 3 more times in the past 5 months and all the same. Shes just massively thick for a male, idk heres a pic of what I found. Any help/ideas are greatly appreciated.

    Also another very concerning thing was her urates were peppered with black crystals. I have searched and searched and have found nothing about these black crystals. I have pics of it if you guys need to see it. Kinda want to get approval before posting poo pics. Again thank you in advance for all help!

    Post the other pics so we can see what your talking about. They are approved.

    As for the pic you did post I'm really not clear what that is. Could you get a better pic with more light?

    Yes she would be a he now. I remember reading a post about these some time ago and if I remember right they are similar to a shed, but for the male parts.

    I'm curious about the black in the poop/urates. I've never seen that before.

    Can't bps have a multiple fathered clutch? And if so, how can they have a sperm plug then?, as one blocks another male from trying to pass his genes with the same female. Just curious

    Could the black crystals be kidney stones?

    wow that really sucks she's a he! Ive contacted the breeder and stopping by this Saturday for him to pop and probe... really hope Berthas not Bubba. About the black crystals in the urates im completely stumped. They had the same consistency as sugar crystals but black, she/he doesn't show any symptoms of being sick, drinks water regularly and eats like a pig and very alert. Thanks every one
