That makes absolutely no sense every reptile ( kept by people) should act like that Uro

Are you trolling right now or are you serious? Aquatic turtles and leopard geckos should act like that uro as well?

Not all healthy reptiles act like that. For example a corn snake and leo are calm by nature. Though we do prefer it, it does not mean they're are not healthy.

Trolling ?? no i am not im not saying a turtle should bask or act like a Uro im saying a reptile for examply a leopard gecko , bearded dragon, etc etc should act skiddish act scared even run away from you thats how every reptile would be in the wild if you keep them properly ( High basking/surface temps, CONSISTENT humidity and Air temps) these animals will act exactly like that Uro in that video as if they were in the WILD :) if you take this as "trolling" then clearly you can comprehend what i was trying to say

No your clearly not trolling, though, now I wish you were. A turtle is a reptile btw

Oh, and this goes down as one of the least intelligent comments I've read on these forums. I hope your not really 21...

*you're
what he is trying to say is that its a good sign of a healthy reptile if they are alert and aware, different reptiles will display that in different ways. a ball python is more likely to coil up on itself than run away because that is how it defends itself.

I think what Mutiny is trying to say is that HE prefers them to act like that. Not that its a fact that they should act like that if they are healthy.

Well, that was very poorly worded if thats what you meant, but no biggie. I like my balance of feisty and tame. Not too much of either.
