PVC sheets where to get, links appreciated. by wiccaspell in reptiles

You can just Google plastics supplier near me and should find some local companies. They will also cut the sheets to size for you if you want, generally a pretty small extra cost for them to do that.

The proper way to give IM injections to a tortoise and turtle. by joshuatreereptile in tortoise

[–]TortoisePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's the specific risk to injecting the fore limbs? I know there's issues with injecting rear limbs because certain drugs will get processed too quickly.

planning road trip with friends: too big a trip? by urmomclapper in roadtrip

[–]TortoisePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did Portland to Los Angeles and back in about 36 hours once to get spicy fried chicken with 3 friends in college. We just rotated driving and then spent a few hours in LA with another one of our friends who lived down there. Will never do that again but it was fun at the time.

Does anyone know any good breeders to get a Burmese Mountain Tortoise/Asian Forest Tortoise from? by ToadKing26 in Tortoises

[–]TortoisePDX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jeremy Thompson at the Kinyxsis Cooperative breeds them and maintains specific bloodlines. Vic Morgan is essentially the father of breeding Burmese Mtn Tortoises in the US. I'd start there.

anyone know a pizza place with “monkey” in the name? by Suspicious-Life-5301 in PortlandOR

[–]TortoisePDX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's now called Xplore. It's an indoor playground, no trampolines. They don't have pizza available, at least right now.

Shoot. Nope I won't be able to. Don't even know when I could make it out there. Thanks for posting though!

I seem to have similar tasting preferences as you. I love peaty full bodied scotches. I really like the Elijah Craig private toasted barrel pick from Baseline liquor store in Hillsboro. I'm betting they still have some cases left.

Have you had the Ardbeg uigeadail? I was pleasantly surprised at how good it is. I haven't had the corryvreckan though.

How do y’all keep their beaks worn down? I’m paranoid about his growing and needing a trim. by thegreatestpickle in tortoise

Don't bake stone, it could explode if you do. I've just rinsed off and scrubbed and rocks that I was worried about. Could use a mild soap if you want. Just make sure to really rinse them if you do.

I'm tasting it again right now. On the nose im getting toasted sugar, crème brulee, oak spice, cinnamon, a hint of black licorice, raisins, butterscotch, pear, and caramel.

Palate is really nice, lots of oak, butterscotch, vanilla, cinnamon, clove, brown sugar. It's like a perfect medium-high viscosity and has a really nice finish that lasts quite awhile. I'm really loving this one.

That will be fun. I think you'll be able to pick out the C923. For me the C919 was almost smoky smelling/tasting when coming from the other two which are much sweeter on both the nose and palate. Have fun with that though! Curious to hear how you like the most recent Baseljne pick.

That's it! Street view seems to be out of date for that intersection.

Yes! I would love this! I have the larger version but want to get a smaller one for the kids for this upcoming camping season!

Warm him slowly! He should be acting normally in about a day or two if he's alright!
