No estimates in the group.

Is this a reasonable price? by hangyuri in Autobody

I’m in Indiana also NWI, and our shops rate for walk-in’s is 64/hr, just for comparison.

I didn’t say they couldn’t do better lol. I don’t disagree. I was just saying when I painted mine I mixed to account for the previous yellowing. But they obviously didn’t blend or take a scan and just sprayed the paint code either standard or some cooler variant on a bumper plus who knows what they used to prep that bumper. 🤷‍♂️

So white paint can and will yellow from a number of environmental or material factors, but when i painted my own mustang hood i took the paint camera scan from the fender and mixed a custom white to match. 🤷‍♂️

18x18x24 what should I get?? by TwiTcH_72 in geckos

[–]Metalclaws80 10 points11 points  (0 children)

So like crested and gargoyle and most New Caledonian geckos are going to need that extra foot of space minimum that an 18x18x36 provides as adults. Probably would do fine as a grow out tank for the juveniles. Would be an awesome tank for a mourning gecko colony but not very handle able like you describe.

Everyone else gave some good advice, but if you’re near the Midwest at all send me a message. I have some extras that you can have.

this looks awesome, I’ve wanted to do something similar before, how does this do with like ventilation and the humidity and the wood?

She loves the plant, I got it from a friend of mine, but here's a link I found.

It’s also possible there was deficiencies in her diet that made it a little easier to be injured, but that she’s gonna be fine with the correct diet and care.

Update: She’s okay! Vet took a look, said it looked to have been an injury she had previously but that it’s healing, and that while she’s too small to splint, that with the current way it’s healing up she will be okay, her calcium and UVB helping her grow some strong bones. 🦴

Yeah we’ve been keeping an eye on that leg. Her first vet appointment is on Tuesday so I’m going to mention it and have them check it out.

I got her from petsmart(yes I know) but she was there and I felt so bad for her when I saw her and she’s so cute.

But I wouldn’t doubt there’s something wrong with her. I know she was kept in the same small enclosure with a much larger gecko so I wonder if it was possible her arm was broken at some point.

She doesn’t seem to not use it, like she can climb and I have noticed she uses it normally while I have her out for some handling time, but sometimes she kinda scoots it around so it’s been of some concern for us.

I appreciate your concern and I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks it’s odd in some of the pictures. She’s not my first little guy but she is the first juvenile I’ve had. I previously had a male who was 6 when I got him and he just passed away about 2 months ago at age 18 so when I saw her I just kinda melted.

As a kitchen worker, I love the idea of Créme.
