We tend to think herps as creatures that have everything they need to survive from the moment they hatch, but more and more discoveries are making clear that they too rely on learned behaviors. Thankfully, in this case it took just a little help to do the trick

Sounds like they shy to me😢
I’m their NATURAL habitat is where these natural instincts like singing happen. Unfortunately humans are the reason of the destruction of these beautiful creatures and many more.❤

They probably don't breed because you handle them too much and they don't like being locked In a cage.
