In Reply to: Yes, another question on SAND... posted by Chrysemys on November 13, 2002 at 19:06:41:
Like ALL terrestrial animals, they do come in contact with sand.
The finer grained sand can actually cause impaction by clumping inside the leo easier than a courser grained ones.
Leos can rearrange the sand to better help them thermoregulate their enclosures. It distributes and holds heat the best. It's easily maintained. It can be spot cleaned much easier, it's more sanitary, it doesn't shred and become a hazzard to your leos, leos like it, and probably several more reasons I haven't mentioned.
All my leos have probably eaten their share of sand, that's what they do. It's their natural instinct to lick sand. If it was so dangerous to them, they would have been extinct millions of years ago.
