Sorry, I know that's kinda silly to share, but, I've never seen one build something like this. Maybe they do it all the time and I just haven't seen it before. I've seen them tunnel like crazy, but, haven't seen a turret.

Things like this are always interesting! Hopefully someone with experience with that species will post a response.

Had an E. cyanognathus do this, super fun to watch it pop out when prey got too close and drag it down in the blink of an eye.

Homer is a great name, like one of my dogs. And there is a great game out as well. The Simpsons. Tapped out!

I haven't played that one yet, mobile game right? There was a Simpsons game on PS3 that I think I played through that was pretty fun.
I went back to school a couple years ago and finished a BA then my grad degree back to back while working fulltime. So, I've had no life at all for several years now. I've sort of gone off like a spring resurrecting all my dead hobbies. I think my spouse was hoping my hobbies were just dead and our house would just stay clean. But, nopes, here I am with a kitchen counter full of fruit flies and plant cuttings. I played my first video game in three years only recently as I got myself a Switch to celebrate surviving grad school.. lol Unfortunately, been really out of the loop, I have to rely on my kid to tell me what to play. So, I'm playing Stardew Valley now.

Interesting! That’s how our kitchen looks as well. Yes, it is a mobile game… try it out.

Hmmm, turrets you say. I remember a South Park episode where some sea monkeys Cartman is keeping make tremendous cultural advancements, including spaceships and weapons of mass destruction, just at a miniature level.
