    D I S T U R B I N G ! ! ! ...but cool...

    Okay, here's the deal... Tonight we witnessed Wicked passing a massive amount of urates and liquid urine as well. It was one of those it's like road kill type deals...You don't really want to see it but you just can't look away...

    While "he" was passing urates hemipenes popped out. Is that normal? I'm guessing that it is. Anyhoo, we could only see the one side but what we did see was one hemipene that was at least a 1/4" if not a 1/2".

    I'm most certainly thinking that Wicked is a boy. I suspected this before hand but now there really isn't any room for doubt is there?

    Just wondering if anyone has seen this happen before and looking for confirmation that with what we witnessed he is in fact a HE.

    I was able to grab my camera and quickly snap off one shot. It isn't the best quality as it was a turn on and snap quick or miss your chance. I snapped the pic right before the hemipene disappeared inside.

    Here's what I got....



    Let me know what you guys think. Thank you!

    I have never seen one of mine do that, and yes, it is definitely a boy.
