Message: <blockquote data-quote="MBullock" data-source="post: 214974" data-attributes="member: 33994">Just your standard 'karen' rant, really lol.  These guys will cram together into a crevice in the wild.  Banded geckos do that too.  You can sometimes open a sprinkler box and find dozens of them clustered inside.  The most ive seen are tail nips which seems to be a social behavior rather than territorial.  Males will fight though and they will annoy the females with constant courtship attempts.  The most insane rant ive seen was some unhinged lady raging about how leos need to bask in UV, then when i called her out on them being nocturnal she claimed they 'expose their belly to the sun inside their burrow'.  All i was trying to tell her was calcium powder alone isnt enough and you need magnesium and vitamin b or they cant even absorb the calcium.. I cant talk too much smack though back when my brain was all messed up and i was crazy and smoking cigs and taking poor care of myself i was kinda like that too, myself lolol.  I look back at some of the crap ive said over the years and cringe hard lmao</blockquote>
