Just because they have a beard or tattoos doesn't mean it will change their interests and other things. Also I can tell this person has never been to a reptile expo, most of the people including women are covered in tattoos. So the comment is very odd to me.

Hey there I could try to add some Amazon links in the description. However, if you want to find the cheapest and best deal you’re better off to getting them at a reptile expo. Also in my experience all silicone is considered toxic until it cures out all the way. You will know it is fully cured out when the fume smells is gone. I have used brown multiple times and all my animals are fine since It was cured out. Other people may state otherwise. However, this is my experience.
