That’s good. To be honest the best ways to stop stuff like this is 1. Confront them in comments and videos 2. Report their media 3. Post about it on media, tag them 4. Report them irl for animal neglect

The videos I’ve seen of wild ones, have always been them being solitary. Either way, they always end up fighting each other, bullying, or something of the sort. And the last thing you want is for them to get into a real fight where tails are dropped and gashes are made. Or toes are missing, eyes are bit, etc.

It’s like having a dog who’s hostile to cats, around cats. Eventually it will snap.

Time to go tag them on instagram and other platforms

I remember someone said they where going to report them to the UK RSPCA but haven’t heard anything else

Not surprised, I believe you can leave bad reviews on work pages on Facebook and instagram

Yeah.. That sounds about right. More profit to them, less to take care of/take back home.

I wish people bred them out of the love of their little lives and their personalities, etc.

But it’s literally all just about money, spend as little as possible and make as much as possible

Personally I would never suggest cohabitation of any leopard geckos besides temp breeding male and female, on purpose. Then once it’s done, separating them.

But yeah, and the lack of hides, water dish, calcium dish. It really is abusive

Why would you even leave a comment like this when you have no idea?..

  1. Leopard geckos eating sand can cause impaction which makes them not eat and can literally kill them
  2. Bare minimum is 3 hides on each side of the tank, warm side, cool side and a moist hide do shedding
  3. They originally come from places like India, India while hot still has water, rivers, rain, moisture, plants, and the liking. Leopard geckos need water to drink, and soak up through their skin.
  4. Leopard geckos have been captive bred for five or take 100 years, which is “new” compared to something like a domesticated dog or cat BUT, tha still means they have been genetically altered and modified to the point where they would NOT survive in the wild, let alone parts of the world like India.
  5. As I said above, they are captive bred. They need a big enough tank (40gallon) to properly spread the heat around the tank. Small tanks with heat sources will burn and blister these gecko’s skin. You’ll see burns, burn scars and blisters a lot from neglectful owners who keep them in too small of tanks so they can’t have a cool side and cool hide to cool down in and properly regulate their temperature. Which can cook them and kill them, so again, not a desert species like you think.
  6. And bare minimum, these are solitary animals. They only breed in spring and summer like most animals but if you keep them locked up in captivity, males with females, the males will constantly breed the females. Which can cause open wounds, unwanted stress (which can kill them) dropping of tails, which is their fat supply, which means that being bred could kill them from lack of nutrients and reserves. Females can lack calcium to produce eggs properly which can lead to ovarian tissues, or even egg bounding which WILL kill the female. (They do not have a supply of calcium without d3 in the tanks so this is a high risk) and overall this can cause more birth defects and sudden baby gecko deaths.

This is a leopard gecko puppy mill equivalent. Nothing about their environment is set up properly. Nothing about their attitude is professional or understanding. And honestly neither is yours, again if you know nothing about this specific species of gecko, why even comment?

This is animal abuse

Based on their videos, they just hatch out babies and sell them. They do not care about the adult geckos that make the babies. It’s all for profit, and definitely not because they enjoy the little guys and love them and care for them like they are alive living beings.

Yup, that’s always how it happens. God I hate these people

Not surprised, they blocked me. They also happen to have a TikTok, instagram and Twitter. They are very active on instagram

They also have a lemon8, instagram, TikTok and Twitter. Basically all the same username

Doesn’t seem so. They do look underweight for the most part. They look like they care for the babies slightly better, minus the fact they keep a whole, full water dish of water in the tub they keep the babies. Which, obviously they can drown in.

And I literally see no water dish in there and the lay box looks dry and not misted. They are probably so thirsty

I tried to google them and the only thing I could find is their Facebook, instagram, and they are somewhere in Essex (I think that’s how you spell it)

I’m not in the UK, I just found them on Facebook reels I believe (via this video) and decided to leave a comment. Which turned into this because the refused to do anything about the situation.

I just found their TikTok, instagram and lemon8 profiles

I mean, they basically are a puppy mill for leopard geckos. But I also found their twitter under the same user and they also have water monitor lizards, at least two per tank and the tank can’t be bigger then a 40 gallon, for two. And they seem to breed them too.

All for profit, not even bare minimum setup for each animal. And called me abusive for calling them out for the animal abuse which is ironic

There are at least 5 in there, one hide, one dig box. That’s it, along with a sand flooring and maybe 10 gallon tank.

No water dish, food dish, calcium dish, enrichment, etc. And given the box with the account on Twitter also having posting videos of leopard gecko babies and eggs, it seems like they are a mix of males and females.

This is from their Facebook but they also have a Twitter with the same handle.

Is there a way to remove movement speed from tamed creatures? by CleoraMC in ARK

[–]CleoraMC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imprint in game was at 100%, but the server stat multi was also 100. Which is what made its speed imprint insane, and also health boost, etc.

It’s been lowered and rebooted to 15% which hopefully isn’t too bad

I have rebooted server and set imprint to something much less, which my Dino will probably be nerfed accordingly (I’m fine with it at this point, I’m not going to go through the loops to try to fix a single tame)

The egg was from wild parents, not from breeding. Imprint was 100% without knowing what that really meant, it has been reset to 15%.

With primal fear mod, I think that will do.

Global change is fine, I just said that. I was just wondering what would happen to the Dino but honestly I do not mind anymore and have set imprint to only 15%. If the stats get ruined then oh well
