What about news papers? When the leos lick won't the ink come off? Or when waters spilled and leos lick it up won't they injest ink? Cons and pros about every substrate thats why I use none.

Newspaper ink is made from soy and is quite harmless-you could drink it!:main_yes:

I was always thinking of using newspaper, but the ink leaves the belly of the gecko gray and stained.

have you guys ever felt calci cand when it gets wet? It clumps like cement.

This is exactly what happens in the leopard gecko's gut.

I have used newspaper for years with a number of herps,including leos and never had ink stick to any of the animals.
