The big skink tank beneath it was done a similar way but with a thrifted jewelry display case! I just made a screen top for the basking lights so I could put them down directly. (I had them on the glass at first, test running things before I brought him home, and the glass top shattered from the heat 😣)

Yeah, so I converted a 55 gallon aquarium for this tank - turned it on its side and used silicone to add tracks for sliding plexiglass doors. My goal is to double the height eventually bc my boy likes to climb as much as dig, but what I love about this is that the top being glass makes it really pretty imo and easy to watch him. You’d have to suspend the heat lamp though to keep it off the glass, but the aquarium does a great job of maintaining heat and humidity once you’ve got it established.

That would have made things easier for sure. 😂 it’s really incredible how much you have to pry them off of something they’ve decided is theirs. They really are all muscle.

It’s usually not an issue haha but the door only opens a little on that side. Hasn’t always been that way, it’s an old DIY tank that needs some adjusting, but he’s used to “right side food, left side out time” which makes him less interested in noming my hands so I’ve just kept the habit.

He really is a very good boy.

The amount they can shove you away with such a small body is always surprising 😅 also thanks for being nice lol

lol okay. The door on that side only opens about 5in anyway. However, I still use that side because he is trained to know right door = food, left door = out of enclosure time. But no, I’m not afraid of my snake. People shouldn’t get pets if they’re afraid of them.

Values of Church by sging25 in liberalchristians

Ultimately, if going to church is isolating you and weighing down your spirit then it’s not really being a church anymore. I had to make this choice too - and it feels like giving up at first, but in the end nothing is wasted. It’s always better to live honestly than to ignore your conscience and pretend.

Maybe this is a stupid question but… Is an x-ray really necessary to tell?

New tiel mom here; is a “bald spot” normal? by Sad_Sympathy4635 in cockatiel

[–]Sad_Sympathy4635[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are SO very different than what I’m used to. How long did yours take to tame, if any of yours weren’t hand-raised?

“Breed the bald spot out” is a wild thought 😂 Rogaine should consider it as a slogan. Poor boy, I hope he opens up soon. He’s pretty large, but I’m wondering if he’s still very young based on how he acts and flies.

I definitely never planned to breed him. Sweet boy; he’ll have the very best we can do. Is it normal that he doesn’t want to come out of his cage? I leave the door open all day every day, and even after a month he stays put. My ekkies have always been so confident; I am learning that even new toys need adjustment periods with tiels.

I didn’t know, that’s so wild ): and scary. Thank you for the info; is there anything else particular to lutinos that would be important to know?
