To each their own.
I'm a master at probing- my herp vet taught me & I'd help with her snakes & mine. Popping is something that has taken me longer to master although anything under 500g does seem pretty simple. I'd never probe a hatchling, after 100g or so, it's not tough at all if you know what you are doing.
