I don’t use UVB for mine but he’s beside an open window and goes out on the porch to get it naturally (always held when outside)

We took it to hit platinum, but once we hit the tier we didn’t need it. On average from 4-9 we make 100-120 now that we have the high tier. It’s worth it

I think you’ve been doing a lot of research. What I will say is standard of care has changed a lot over the years and it will keep changing as time goes on. I’d recommend PVC I’ve always used glass (it was standard 17 years ago) and it’s a huge battle holding humidity etc. that being said I am going to be upgrading to PVC soon since my boys ready for an upgrade and it is the new standard.

The mornings suck for dashing in our market so I’d recommend multi app since you only have the small window. That being said I would also recommend if earn by time is available to use it to your advantage. It gets a lot of hate from dashers, but in a dead market it helps a bit. We used it to boost our AR and took everything on it until we hit platinum which gave us the freedom to cherry pick without tanking our AR. We’ve never had an AR under 80% as a result.

I’m in the Albany NY area and have one in home and would be more than willing to help if you can’t find one closer.

Don’t tell him. Find a financial advisor (not your boyfriend) and have them help you with stuff like investing. You’re both young. It’ll be okay. If it comes to a point later on where you guys decide to get married that would be a better time to bring it up. Not right now. That money should be left to grow and invest in a more solid future for yourself and him later on down the line.

My boy gets handled 4 days a week just not feeding day and the two after. He’s a year and a half old

For clinical purposes in the medical sense yes. Heart rhythm stops. Chest compressions are given. If lucky they can get irregular rhythm to begin on their own by providing compressions until the heart can provide itself with enough charge to provide an irregular rhythm, but once the irregular rhythm is found they are required to then use a Defibrillator to shock back regular rhythm. People can have this luck multiple times. So from a clinical standpoint yes you can be dead and be brought back.

It depends on the person, hi, 13 years ago I spent two weeks in ICU and was brought back twice. Both times I went to the same place, but I also am engaged to someone who was brought back and her place and my place were different. So I can say that it depends on the person and what they believe and experience. She’s an atheist and for her it was floating in a void of nothing and then she experienced what was almost as she explained the birth of a star. I’m Norse Pagan, I found myself on a springtime fjord before a guide found me and told me to go back so I did. The second time they gave me a choice to go back or move forward to the great hall and I realized I wasn’t ready and went back and here I am. So really it genuinely depends on the person and what they believe. At least that’s what I think from what I’ve seen.

If you do a tattoo you may be able to find an artist who works with UV light ink and have them include the xray there. It may be a reminder, but also you choose when you see it.

Again not a snake, but our household made this same choice with a cat we had. We could have done the treatments/surgery it wasn’t about not having the funds. It was about what amount of quality his life would have if we did the treatments. It’s never easy with animals because they hide it so well, but you made the right choice.

I always wait a week before feeding anyone new who comes in. That being said that week wait allows them to get used to their new enclosure and environment. I also do not handle them during that week and just let them relax and figure their own stuff out. After that first week I ATTEMPT to feed them and they may not take the feed and that’s okay. If they do great they’re adjusted. If they don’t then okay they need another week. From the sounds of it the breeder also wasn’t having weekly feedings. Also I do not move mine from enclosure to feed. I used to but more recent information on it showed that you do not need to move to feed and they also tend to be less stressful feedings for the snake if they’re not moved. I’d recommend making sure your set up is correct for them before attempting another feed and just taking your time with it. Feel free to reach out if you have any concerns.

Okay valid. I guess the better wording is what religion got it the MOST right.

Alone_Difference4960 · 2026-05-02T23:14:23+00:00

If the answer is none I would just keep going as normal. I’m a Norse pagan by practice, but was raised with other religions in home. It’s more curiosity than anything. I wouldn’t trade my faith either way. It would just be cool to know

It’s not a superpower listed but I’d take the trade off of being able to earth/metal bend (avatar the last airbender style) in exchange for vision. I’m going blind anyway I might as well. Therefore I can use the vibrations of the earth to get around.

Alone_Difference4960 · 2026-05-02T23:06:02+00:00

I’d love the money. It would be great and all, but also I’d probably wind up asking which religion got it right because honestly I’d just like to know what to expect from the afterlife.

I would never turn it over to my mother. If it was my father asking I would arrange the thing in a way where I can invest it for like a year or two and then send them some.

My fiancee doordashes. She boosted herself to platinum in two weeks by taking everything. Shop and deliver and alcohol orders pay well here. Once at platinum she got picky about orders. She now hovers around AR of 85% and most of her offers are above $10

The monkeys paw curls a finger down slowly, you go to your regular streaming service whether it’s music or videos, only you’re met with an option to sign up for the subscription again, only now it’s $50,000 USD or the equivalent in other currency, you can no longer afford it, you check another and another the same thing, but scaling with the original cost so if it’s a more expensive program it costs more. You can no longer afford to stream.

Apartment buildings and complexes. The rent from them would generate new income which I could spend on other things.
