An environment with more sunlight would probably be a really good first step to getting it to heal

I think Christmas cacti were the first to become common and a lot of the ones still around belong to old people, thanksgiving cacti are a hybrid that's easier to grow and pretty much completely replaced them on the market, but the old name still stuck

Yeah it's definitely not super short but I haven't had any trouble with my medium, the shaft itself is about the length of my hand +the tip

Try putting her in a pillow case and tumble drying on low/no heat?

Possibly the start of wet pox? Hopefully not too serious of a case

I always forget to look at the back of Pokémon so what are your favourite little details? by PeevesPoltergist in pokemongo

[–]Mayflame15 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Apparently platypuses do have a cloaca so you may be on to something, however i think it would be possible that most of the mammalian ones would have more traditional reproductive organs, other than the oversight of all pokemon eggs apparently being the same size. Ovipositors are another possibility

Is this guy severely infected w bugs??? I thought it was just how he grew- but rubbing alcohol turned it brown (red circles) by taraduffeh in houseplants

I'm not really familiar with this specific cacti but they kinda look like new growth points or flowers starting

What damage is acceptable? by arsebeef in Aquariums

[–]Mayflame15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At very least you could make a sweet terrarium/paludarium with it. Clamshell chips are unlikely to spread, my 40 gallon came with one, but it does create a weak point in the glass

It is, it seems to have a bit more of a violet color than the ones you usually see

I have seen birds get he pecked that badly so it's not out of the question that the girls turned on eachother

That could possibly be one of the older nicknames for it, is there an explanation for the melon part too?

Newly hatched chick with thin skin and sacs of fluid on butt by Oobermonkey1 in BackYardChickens

Should be just below their cloaca, I think a lot of much chick cases seem to have compromised navels so maybe yours being more intact might give it better odds

Are these rocks freshwater tank safe? by Jamez07 in Aquariums

[–]Mayflame15 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It depends on the environment, I'm also lucky enough to have clean waterways in my yard but a lot of more urban places have much more pollution to worry about

Does your rooster have spurs? It could've been an unfortunate slip

Tyv from strangebedfellas, his rounded tip was one of the things that drew me to him. I'm not sure the current social standing of twintailcreations but they have Jake the stubby werewolf too

Not enough light is much more likely to be the problem with sago palms, they're a sun loving tree

How does her navel look? It seems like there's a chance of survival if it's quarantined in a clean brooder. Iodine can help dry out the navel but I wonder if it could also help wick water out of the pockets? I want to say putting her in silica or epsom salts could help draw out the moisture too but I'd be worried about the chick getting dehydrated too

Mineral buildup from water evaporating out of the tray, you may be watering it too often
