In the evening we often let out Izzy and Oscar, our two Boscs, to roam around our living room. Unfortunately, Izzy often just comes out to do a huge poo in the corner of the room and then goes straight back into her viv. Lets just says this is possibly one of the worst habit's going and the worst smell in the world! While we understand her need to relieve herself we would be grateful for any suggestions to prevent her from doing this in our living room, as it becomes very unlivable.

Is she marking her territory or does she just like this corner? Why isn't she just pooing in her viv like Oscar?

I am glad to say that Oscar is much better behaved.

Cheers

Why dont you put down a litter box in the corner of the room with the same substrate in as the viv? She might feel the texture and decide it's the same as home? Or she can't stand the smell either, so she thinks you can put up with it!
