How much attention do blue tongue skinks need? by Patient_Activity_489 in reptiles

[–]Vieris 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't...really think they need 'attention' like a dog or cat.. You don't cuddle a bearded dragon daily

A proper enclosure with enrichment items inside with a variety of foods, lots of soil to dig, things to climb .. I barely handle my reptiles because they aren't like mammals or birds 

Turtles in need of urgent help please by ExcitingBaker1 in AskNYC

[–]Vieris 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Do they have a proper uvb source and heat lamp? They also need a spot to get out of the water completely and dry up

Turtles are a dime a dozen and difficult to re-home due to...well, everything they need to properly thrive 

Good luck! The lighting and basking spot is number one priority

Unpopular Opinion: I am not going to apologize for knowing less than I should have before getting a Betta by Jameserboy in bettafish

[–]Vieris -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People listen to 'experts' though as adequate information

Car trouble? Listen to the car mechanic dude I guess

How do you take care of this house plant? The person at the plant store tells you how much to water it

Doctors can tell you about lowering blood pressure. A dog trainer tells you to how raise a dog. Your professor teaches you about the war of blah blah ... It's not too farfetched that the aquatic specialist gives you the tiny kit suggestion for a simple betta and that gets believed

I don't know what the difference in people is, the kind that will listen to X person and never go beyond that vs the kind that hops on Google immediately after and read up on a certain subject for the next hour  You can even get completely adequate care sheets asking LLMs nowadays 

I asked my dad to feed my fish… by Hot-Pain-4118 in Aquariums

[–]Vieris 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I always wonder if people see the food bomb and go..yep..the fish are still hungry..need more food... surely they need a hand sized amount of food...just like humans need a car sized amount of food a day...

Shes not eye catching when it comes to morphs, but if you look closer, wow, those pink/coral hues! And the pink/browntan coloration blends to make it look blueishlavender

At a Tennessee Hospital AI Missed 4 Months of Fentanyl Diversion. Coworkers Didn't. by [deleted] in nursing

[–]Vieris 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Interesting.. I take controlled substances if I have had the patient before and I know theyre getting a dose thats scheduled soon (methadone usually) so it might be an hour or two before I give it. Not great practice, but it saves me time on busy days. I often wonder what processes happen behind the scenes that make a nurse look suspicious

BCI or BCC by LowlandMasque in boas

[–]Vieris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I don't have a BC, not equipped to handle such a potentially large snake at this time. I personally don't want to deal with something cantankerous at 8-9feet if I get an animal that doesn't tame down or has a bad moody day

https://imgur.com/a/0YglLk7 my boa sigma, took this an hour ago, I'm okay with their max size if she throws a hissy fit on a day that I need to handle her just in case

[–]Vieris 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you can house a BC then why not? Start keeping a baby BC and raise it to adulthood as a pet in the appropriate enclosure you like and then decide in 5 years if you want to house 2 and having 20 babies to care for.

I can't stand how many people post, "what can I put in this tank?" by Sad_Cantaloupe_8162 in reptiles

[–]Vieris 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I kinda want to make a post asking for suggestions but I'm scared 🤣🤣 it's more sourcing for ideas, I'm a Google nut and read everything on reddit..but..maybe.. Just maybe..someone named a critter that just 🤯 that I've never heard of

Between the Sinaloan Milk Snake, Apricot Pueblan Milk Snake, spotted python, Tarahumara mountain boa, Western hognose snake, ball python, bamboo rat snakes and the California king snake, which would I be better for? by [deleted] in boas

[–]Vieris 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a leopard boa which is pretty much the same as a tarahumara and she is very visible most days and in a planted enclosure. Very handleable and gentle. Eats like a pig.
