Do not probe/pop without being shown. You can easily damage your snake if you do it wrong.
Try posting a wanted ad on a local reptile website or even on here. I posted on my local reptile website and got replies not even an hour later.

X2, it's always best to have an experienced person show you beforehand. I nice set of ball tipped probes are nice to have to minimize risk...

Yeah, but..... Comparing a boa to a ball isn't really fair. Boas are larger and like you said, that makes it easier.

Re: seriously?!!
I posted asking for help to be shown and had a response within a day. A BP.net member met with me and my daughter and showed us how to pop and probe. Just be specific about you lo cal (town) so readers know where you are and see if anyone responds. Good luck

Did you probe both sides? If some one prior to you pushed to hard on a female, it can rupture and go deep. Where are you located?
Or run up to the show today with the pastel and get someone there to pop it for you. Ed with Wildmorph can help. He's there today down the first aisle on the right by the double doors. I was helping him there yesterday.

If I didn't live in almost Chattanooga I would have taken "him" lol down to be probed for a second opinion. I'm going to try to find someone close to me to get a second opinion.
