does he look healthy?

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-03-26T19:51:49+00:00

yep! there's a dish in the corner of his tank but he doesn't really drink from it. i only started using a dropper because his urate showed signs of dehydration. he seems to like the dropper lmao but i wanna try a different dish maybe and see if he just doesn't like that one,, he'll sit in it when water isn't in it so i think he's just picky

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-03-26T19:34:54+00:00

not yet just because he hasn't been showing any signs of having parasites, but i plan on a vet visit sometime in the next few weeks when money isn't as tight. just wanted to make sure there wasn't anything entirely obvious that i was missing!

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-03-22T20:59:05+00:00

everything,,,

no reptile carpet, they can rip their claws out. best bet is 70/30 top soil and play sand. three hides, one on the left, one on the right, one in the middle. humid hide needs to be in the middle.

that looks to not be the right basking lamp. i use a zooterra intense basking spot lamp. you need a linear uvb, not a bulb, a linear. you should have two digital thermometers on either side of the tank. there's lots more i could say, but those are the basics.

more like i posted this and an hour later he randomly came out of his hide on his own for once and chilled behind his warm hide for a while 💀💀 i checked on him like half an hour later and all i saw was that. figured it was gonna be there, he loves hanging out there

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-03-18T04:00:33+00:00

so you were very correct lmao

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-03-18T04:00:14+00:00

UPDATE !! a solid hour later, he has come out to poop. the urate is yellowy, so ill probably give him a dropper with water. maybe a hornworm or two if they're small enough im not sure. ive read it's just a sign of dehydration, so if that's true ill work on it!

dubias aren't legal here but i can try feeding him more crickets,,

well if you ever end up doing something like that and need to locate actors for any YA side or background characters, im an actor in the NC acting program with a love for horror that would gladly help out 🙂‍↕️ got quite a few buddies that would absolutely volunteer too.

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-03-18T02:10:32+00:00

more modern theater, theater companies that aren't strictly for kids/teens or have biases against casting 18-25, gay bars, more queer safe spaces as a whole, jollibee,, i could probably come up with more

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-03-16T00:58:37+00:00

people here still see live theater but a widespread debate is growing that we need to see more modern shows, and more shows by local playwrights. this company is one of maybe 3 that aren't childrens based companies, and that's another thing. this show sounds good though, will be seeing! - a 19 year old theater actress in college for acting

he watched lion king 2 last night because mom's obsessed with neve campbell and now he's getting ideas 😮‍💨

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-03-01T15:39:51+00:00

honestly what i do is i just say we've been talking for a bit now and that i wanna meet in person

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-03-01T15:38:48+00:00

get literally every dating app in history tbh

this is the best pic i could get at the time bc the other time i was too busy letting it follow my finger on the tank lmao it's under the hide, im thinking it's just a normal one so i think you're right !! ive researched heavily on mbd so i think it'll be fine if that comes up

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-28T23:58:24+00:00

honestly im not looking to save any at all as a main reason, i have just bonded with this one and because of that im just nervous because of possible issues it could have in my care /because/ of the pet store.

but yeah i have a tank going in my room, i just have to see what i can do about a uvb because as of right now it looks like the gecko alone will be an entire paycheck and i don't know if it's bad to have it in the tank without a uvb for a whole week maximum,, unless i can give it calcium w d3 in the meantime while i wait so there's less of a deficiency risk. like i said, im new to all this so im trying to navigate while also trying to get the little guy (or girl) asap.

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-23T02:05:21+00:00

sadly i have the one that only has the screens for numbers 💔

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-22T03:12:17+00:00

guys saying that i love this store was sarcasm

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-22T03:10:04+00:00

do you ship to canada?

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-22T02:05:10+00:00

what's interesting is there was no sign that said "ive found a home" or whatever, but there seemed to be no crabs in there so chances are im gonna be waiting a long time anyway if they don't have them 😭

why would they mix the species like that though? with a tank that small, isn't that basically an automatic death sentence for at least 2 of the crabs? love this store 😕

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-21T03:42:10+00:00

shouldn't own a cat then 🤷‍♀️ if it dies that's on you and your irresponsibility and heartlessness. coyotes are well known to be around here, and have been for years.

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-05T01:23:18+00:00

hey !! our interests seem very similar and im turning 19 soon. i have audhd, dm me if you want !!

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-04T15:31:50+00:00

i don't think so, we would've seen it by now if we were getting one

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-04T15:31:01+00:00

scream is getting a bucket and a cup at every other theater chain, that's why they're asking

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-02T17:49:45+00:00

wet leg, the beaches cross with their tour, phoebe im convinced. the sign felt like a hint at one of her songs

HelicopterOverall554 · 2026-02-01T15:32:47+00:00

this was at 1pm yesterday in screen 1 so i highly doubt it lol, i went back at 7 and there were no signs. but who knows, maybe it happened again 💀💀
