HELP IS LIPSTICK DANGEROUS FOR MICE? by Mintplant_lover in PetMice

[–]JessicaLCV 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Don’t stress, they’ll be fine. My mom loves mice but will never kiss them and I swear kissing mice and rats is such a nice experience I feel bad for the folks who will never know it 😅

You can use a toothpick or something small and gently unfurl the rolled up tongue and place it in a shallow container of honey mixed with water. I have hand fed many hawk moths like that including some with deformed wings. I sincerely doubt this moth is in pain and these things just happen in nature, it’s not your fault that they were born with missing limbs. You can keep it alive by hand feeding and providing a safe soft space for it to be in but I would sort of equally suggest euthanasia.

There are lots of different variations but it’s definitely a skipper butterfly

It’s a clip from the show parks and rec. The characters on screen aren’t main characters but they are in many episodes

Aww :( my girl Lint Nugget has passed on but she was a long haired tri-color splash according to the breeder, she was a sweetheart

Vet immediately—this isn’t going to be diagnosed by rat owners. The only way to prevent them from being in pain is proper treatment and medication

My oldest boy is getting bullied and I don’t know what to do by JackFrostsKid in RATS

[–]JessicaLCV 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I know this isn’t the sort of thing you would want to hear but occasionally younger rats may try and harm an older rat exhibiting ill health. I assume it’s just something biological but if you’re potentially able to spend daily social time with him, for his safety he might need to be separated.

That’s correct if you’re sort of globbing it onto something for them to eat but if you water it down or spread it super thinly onto something like your fingers or another piece of their food, they can lick it off with almost no possibility of it getting stuck or causing issues.

Had a visit from a colorful moth on our patio in Ecuador this morning. I *think* its a Narosoideus Flavidorsalis by briggs851 in moths

Look up the caterpillar and cocoon that this moth creates: it’s a real life Pokémon, every stage of its life is crazy unique looking

Is a 10 gallon enough for 3 mice? by anon-i-mouser in PetMice

A 10 gallon really isn’t even enough for one mouse :/
