    Will this affect my male BP breeding?
    My male BP recently lost both of his spurs and I'm wondering if this will affect his breeding. One just came off when I was checking him for stuck shed near his spurs (there was none). The other one I noticed when I pulled him from the female's tub about two weeks ago. What do you think?

    Hi,

    No it shouldn't bother him at all. :)

    Do you know why this would have happened del? I know theyre vestigial so them falling off probably isnt a big deal but im just curious...

    Hi,

    Well I suspect the actual spur is still there - but that the cap of unshed skin on it has come off. :)

    There should still be a tiny white spur in there if the OP looks closely - otherwise I would have expected her to mention blood or other worrying signs.

    I'm pretty sure his spurs are gone. I'll take pictures tomorrow to show you guys.
