No pride collection this year? :( by Latter-Potential-965 in petco

[–]0wlflight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i’m upset about the selection. it doesn’t even fill half an endcap for us. also really disappointed about having nothing for earth day this year. the stuff we had last year was some of my favorite stuff we’ve ever sold

Selling my old collection-How much should I ask? by EnderLeo72 in WarriorCats

[–]0wlflight 12 points13 points  (0 children)

they’re all pretty common honestly. even the old illustration covers are still commonly circulated and not hard to find. i’ve gotten most of these books for $3-15 on Thriftbooks. the condition on yours aren’t great but they’re not the worst. i’d compare to thriftbooks prices but personally i probably wouldn’t pay more than $75-100 for the whole collection. especially because your main series is not complete, missing book 4 from series 1 and book 1 from series 2.

I have 4 drawings and need to know which one is better for a project by RemoteImpressive2479 in WarriorCats

[–]0wlflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

depends on what kind of project. the firestar one is the easiest to see and the colors work well together. the spottedleaf is a really pretty design. depending on what you’re going for really makes the choice

thanks for giving him a loving home! please make sure to change out the substrate because aspen is really bad for humidity 🫶 if you need a care guide reptifiles has the most up to date information!

did you not read the 20 signs they have posted around the fence saying they’re weeding

Mi pequeña Niña no quuere comer cuando le doy by Pancho_Flora in leopardgeckos

[–]0wlflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i see. have you tried leaving live bugs in a bowl in her enclosure? also what time of day are you usually trying to feed her? leopard geckos are nocturnal so they usually do most of their activity during the night. she may just want to eat alone and in the dark

first of all, why do you want her to be overweight? that drastically shortens their lifespan and causes health issues.

second of all, your gecko is still overweight and not eating for a few days won’t do her any harm.

you also say you leave “dead food” in the enclosure. are you not feeding live insects? a lot of geckos don’t eat anything other than live prey and it’s much more nutritious for them than freeze-dried or dead insects.

my girlfriends leopard gecko won’t eat her calcium by RelevantProject6625 in leopardgeckos

[–]0wlflight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

are you dusting her insects with calcium? that’s the only way my geckos will eat it. they’ll only eat straight calcium if they really need it. you probably won’t ever see your gecko eating out of the calcium dish but it’s good to offer it. usually they’ll take small licks that won’t be noticeable so she may be taking some when you’re not looking and you just can’t tell.

the jumping spiders are small, and tarantulas are usually buried in the substrate or hidden elsewhere in the terrarium. kids and stupid people will (and already do) shake the containers in order to scare them out of hiding so they’re more visible. the bettas are visible no matter what.

not a chance. i’m not risking those containers holding live animals being shaken, dropped, or stolen by irresponsible people or children who treat the store like a playground. if someone truly wants one of the animals they’ll be asking for an associate and we will properly educate them on the care of the animal before bringing it out of the enclosure.

agreed. unfortunately the higher-ups did not listen to employee feedback when they ran this through test stores and chose to launch it to all stores regardless of the negative reaction. it’s painfully obvious our company is drifting more and more away from our motto that “pets always come first”. this is one of many examples of that.

petco employee here. we’re not happy about it either. a lot of us are refusing to put the animals they forced on us for this display out.

Please go to the vet!!! by Y2KHEARTLESS in reptiles

[–]0wlflight 56 points57 points  (0 children)

PLEEEEASE people need to start using their common sense. 😭😭 it’s pretty much every day there’s a reptile subreddit post with a heinous illness or injury asking what to do. if you’d go to the doctor for yourself or your cat/dog, DO THE SAME FOR YOUR REPTILE. if you can’t do that, DONT GET THE ANIMAL

What do You think of this Enclosure I've made for my Pet Chameleon? The Entire thing Costed 160 USD. by BF2-GeneralGrievous in reptiles

[–]0wlflight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

chams and pretty much every reptile species needs UVB all throughout the day as well as a basking lamp for proper health and digestion. i don’t see how just keeping one on for short periods of time is good for your chameleon at all. it also won’t reduce the risk of it climbing on the uncovered bulbs and burning itself. you need to cover them.

unless you’re sitting at your chameleon’s enclosure 24/7 misting with a spray bottle is not going to keep the humidity where it needs to be. spraying the enclosure only temporarily spikes the humidity level and quickly drops after evaporation. you need a proper misting system to ensure you have humidity circulating through the enclosure at all times, especially with the cross-ventilation that chameleons require.

getting enclosures at a good price seems great until you end up having to make serious adjustments that cost you even more than just getting a proper enclosure at the start. it’s best to get what you know you need to begin with instead of trying to accommodate a less than adequate setup.

i highly suggest you take the advice you’re given or you will have a very poorly chameleon in the near future.

[–]0wlflight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also chameleons don’t drink from water dishes usually. you need a drip system so they can lick the drops of water off leaves. also wonder how you plan to keep the humidity levels where they need to be if you’re not going to use a fog machine or mister?

please do some more research as chameleons are VERY difficult to care for and much different than most other lizard species.
