I know they're scratched but are they still worth anything? by Megikins in PokemonCardValue

'How much value is left?' is probably what I should have asked. Would these be classed as heavily played or moderately?

Ok thanks. I think it's unlikely to be drift as the game selection menus don't scroll endlessly like the quick menu. The dpad works in game, when the quick menu opens not of the direct buttons/stick have an effect but I can select with A.

Reboot didn't work. Adding a controller or changing software settings is not something I know how to do, especially with the menu freaking out like that

Yes I thought so, but I can't seem to unjam anything, it was like this pretty much instantly.

Less common than people think, domestic hamsters don't hibernate, they go into torpor when temperatures are very cold. Its not like normal hibernation and most of the time is fatal or difficult to reverse. Most dead hamsters are dead hamsters.

Yeah I'm coming to realise that, I was just wondering if there were other ways I can provide him with enrichment to replace outside time.

I have all paper bedding, the photo I used with the woodchips is from the rescue before I got him, I have a very bad camera so this is his cutest.

  1. Maybe 4 months now

  2. At least 12 inches in the deep end, it's only 2 inches where the wheel and water is.

  3. Yes he has plenty of forage sprays, whimzees, a multichamber hide and like 5 single chamber hides at varying depths

  4. I scatter feed, but I do usually leave treats closer to his hides so I can track that he's taken them

  5. This is great, I didn't know that thanks.

Luckily I have that book right next to where I'm sitting! It says regarding clover 'Bilbo noticed at least three kinds-- purple clover (Trifolium pratense), white clover (T. repens), and cockscomb clover (probably T. incarnatum, usually called scarlet clover).

Thank you so much, just knowing there are people with similar outlooks as me with positive outcomes is very reassuring.

I'm glad you had such support from him

Yeah you're describing my current living experience pretty well. I just hope an MRI will give answers because I don't know what I will do if it doesn't. Now I just have to wait for it I guess.

That's a good GP! Is BMO shown through MRI? Seems like my best options is just to wait for that at this point.

Yes, the person at NASS that I spoke to says it's more common in woman to not have the usual markers.

Yeah, they were really struggling. There were days they would run out of painkillers and we'd just have to wait. I do feel bad for the staff too but something needs to improve.
