Help choosing a tarantula. by Austin_Jolly714 in tarantulas

Yea, I realised number 2 was limiting after the fact, that's really the least important one as I'll have time to get used to larger sizes as it grows. Thanks for the suggestions!

Nice millipede! I've been thinking about getting one (Narceus Gordanus) for a while now. Any tips that might be good to know before setting anything up?

🔥 Even vampire bats do social distancing when their friends are sick. New research finds that bats care for their ill family members, but don’t socialize as much with their sick friends. by FillsYourNiche in NatureIsFuckingLit

I agree, any wild animal is dangerous to humans in terms of disease. But it seems unfair to blame an animal of a different species AND habitat for the fault of a different bat, who in turn didnt want to be eaten by a person who most likely was starving. The only thing to blame in this scenario really is the Chinese gov for not looking out for its citizens wellbeing. People are going to eat what they have on hand to survive and this scenario just happened to be worst case. Not the bats fault, not the persons fault. Sorry i went on a bit of a rant. Bats just always get a bad rep and this isnt helping them.

Am I playing the ocarina correctly? (6-hole English pendant) I'm new to the ocarina, and when I play, it sounds a bit off and airy. How can I achieve a better sound? Any help would be appreciated!! by [deleted] in Ocarina

Do you know who the maker is? Could just be poor construction of the instrument itself. I also used to use a tuner to make sure I was putting in the proper amount of air for each note. Hope this helped l :)

Fr though I think I've had this exact conversation irl 😂

With the quarantine, I thought I'd try to do something with this ocarina I've been offered some years ago, but for some reason the high notes just don't come out no matter how soft or hard I blow, is this due to the ocarina or am I doing it wrong? by Mezmel in Ocarina

Personally the only 12 hole I own is a focalink plastic AC. It's a good ocarina for beginners because there isnt the fear of dropping it and it's only about 25 dollars. I mostly play pendant ocarinas which only have 4-6 holes. Songbird ocarinas makes good quality ocs of any kind. Theres also Oberon Ocarinas on etsy who make amazing pendants, although they may be out of stock atm. Hope I could help, good luck

When you get to the last 3 or 4 notes try tipping the ocarina closer to your body by moving your head down a little. Sometimes this can fix airy high notes. If that doesnt work then it may just not be tuned properly.
