Today, I was awoken by the sound of my pet lizard eating my other pet lizard. FML
Duckzy tells us more.

Hey guys, OP here. I just wanted to say a few things, first off, I was awoken by the sound of the lizards running around in their habitat, not by cries or crunches or whatever. Secondly, the lizards were the same size and opposing genders so I was told to put them together by the person who sold the lizards to me. Lastly, unfortunately by the time I got to them, the other lizard (Female in case you were wondering) was already half inside of the other's stomach.

A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.

Oh how sad. But you know what they say: Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

Yeah, that's a pretty common thing with some reptiles. Poor lizard :(

When you got them did they not tell you this happens and not to house them together? That sucks and you learned it the hard way.

Pet stores usually tell people to house them together. For what reason, I don't know... It's usually not a good idea. They're solitary and even if they don't end up like OP's lizards, they get stressed which can lead to death.

We live in the age of the internet now, there's no excuse for not knowing how to keep your pets properly. YDI, and the same goes for all the idiots that do this with hamsters.

my brother looked online and found some hamsters, if siblings, can live together but that didn't work out. Just because the Internet is there doesn't mean it's perfect some personalities just don't allow it, dogs can live together but some personalities mean that some dogs are meant to live with no other dogs.

oh I don't know how many times I read it's okay to have a kitten by itself, feed it try food, declaw it and only neuter them if you really have to ... it's the worse tips you could get, but there are plenty of it exactly like it... if it's the same with lizards you have to read AND think...

You deserve it because you clearly didn't research your pets enough. With reptiles especially this is vital.
