    Re: sperm plugs

    You really don't have to "fully pop" the male most of the time. Usually takes less pressure to excrete sperm than actually extract the pene. It may not work with 100% of males, but I get plugs from all of my 500-ish gram males to put in my females enclosures so my 900+ gram males will be more apt to copulate.
