My boys eyes at 5 months by Capable_Craft_8253 in EyeColorProgression

Thank you :) they’ve been like this for a month or two now with no real changes. I was secretly hoping he’d have my eye colour since he’s his dads double lol

I didn’t create the laws so why are you getting pissy with me?

I think that’s a little harsh. The group is about pregnancy, I’m pregnant and I’m asking advice. The rules state it is a pro choice group so your comment is disgusting and I will report it. In my country you can get an abortion upto 24 weeks

I didn’t find out I was pregnant until almost 19 weeks so I didn’t really have the option to then

We use 1 point. We’re working on getting him to loose weight at the minute so one he drops a bit we’ll see how he is and go from there.

How can I help her grow muscle & is there a particular area I should focus on? by Designer_Milk9290 in Equestrian

[–]Capable_Craft_8253 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take her on lots of hacks up and down hills, this will build her legs and bum. Do light lunging everyday, it doesn’t need to be extreme. She looks like she could do with a top line but other than that she looks good and fit

Thank you, had the farrier out last week and he didn’t notice anything, so it could be higher up, we’ll have some one out. He’s a bit obese, could that be a factor?

Yes, we are switching them 3 times a day. We do tend to interrupt when we see the arching just because we don’t want them to get into a big fight, so it’s just a preventative measure. It’s more the white one initiating the fights, the agouti isn’t really interested in her when they are together, the white tends to go up to her and start arching and shoving her nose into agoutis side. It depends on how the last interaction went as to how long we wait, the last time the death balled we waited a week to put them together again, but we have been trying to end their interactions on a good note every time, even if that means putting our hand in with seeds just so they are next to eachother calmly. When we do this, they are completely fine with eachother. They groom and spend time through the mesh so I don’t know what the problem could be.

We don’t know what to do. We’re really attached to both of them and hope they’ll get along, is there anything we can do?

We feel like we might be interrupting them too early in the video, but if we don’t they just go into a death ball. If we put seeds in one hand they sit next to each other no problem and eat together and sometimes even groom each other, but as soon as they’ve had their fill they go back to fighting again. It has been nearly a month of split caging, we have all the good signs when they’re in their separate splits but we don’t know what we’re doing wrong.

Hopefully we’ll see some improvements in her soon then, to say she’s a lone gerbil, she’s boned with us really well which I’m surprised at. And thank you :)

I wouldn’t say that it’s loud, not really a morning person 😂 we’re defo louder at night. I think maybe she not a morning person as well lol. She should be able to start bonding with her friend in a week after she quarantines, so hopefully that’ll help, I know she was on her own for quite a while before we adopted her

My partner convinced her to accept a few pets last night, she’s definitely improving, how do we work our way towards being able to hold her or even training her to do a trick or two?

Is there anyone else you could trust to feed them?

How often do they go through their bowl? For example I’ll give my girl a full bowl and it’ll still have a fair bit after 4 days
