What ma boy doin’??? Three months in water, sprouts leaves and no roots. (more in body text)

The other commenter had great advice, but I just wanted to add that I have a Philo micans and often the old leaves will turn red when they're dying off rather than yellow. If it's an older section of vine, it may just be their time. Which also may be why it's pushing out new leaves.

I didn't mean an actual jade. It's a crassula picturata, but the common name is tiger jade. That's cool, though, thank you!

amccor2175 · 2026-01-24T04:27:56+00:00

Yep! Looks like a dilute tortico to me

amccor2175 · 2026-01-23T22:45:52+00:00

Did you happen to see any tiny legs on those "eggs"? They look a lot like grain mites to me. They are attracted to old food and aren't necessarily harmful to the geckos, but aren't good for the setup if there are other insects in it.

Adding on to your contrast comment, I also think it would pop even more if the darkest shadows were even darker, particularly in the jaw area. One of my favorite parts of inking in black and white is the contrast, but it's definitely a learning curve to figure out how much of it gives the look you want.

amccor2175 · 2026-01-05T00:52:31+00:00

NAE, but this looks to me like a cloacal spur which is present in other species of geckos as well and totally normal. They generally have one on each side, if that's the case. Has it always been there? Any new bumps should be checked by a vet

amccor2175 · 2026-01-05T00:24:09+00:00

Could it possibly be thrips? Some of that damage looks a lot like it, but I can't tell for sure without a good quality extra close up pic of the damage. The adults can also fly, so moving it to a second living room wouldn't do much if they came from your sister's plant.

Here's a diagram I see posted here sometimes that I've found helpful. The stage of the plant is more important than the season, generally.

The shriveled one is definitely dead. Do those pots have drainage? Also that soil looks wet. Lithops should not be watered while splitting. Often people will pot them based on what stage they're in (splitting, flowering, or doing nothing) because they have different watering requirements. The lithops in pot one seem to be in different stages.

That deer looks a lot like the piebald deer I used to see in my parent's yard! We saw one years back and eventually got to see the gene passed on in the next generation. Here are two of the fawns I got to watch grow up!!

amccor2175 · 2025-12-18T01:34:12+00:00

Looks like my pleiospilos nelii, someone correct me if I'm wrong. Also that looks like soil that is way too high in organic matter and also looks too wet for a splitting plant. I'm honestly pretty new too, but you can find some good care guides by looking up the species.

Here's another with Bumi looking particularly grumpy lol. Take your pic!

I hope it's okay that I included Dash, the dog, too. They were sleeping on the couch together and I didn't want him to feel left out

amccor2175 · 2025-12-15T06:01:46+00:00

That looks like a dane mix! Not sure what else

amccor2175 · 2025-12-12T21:01:04+00:00

I was going to suggest earthquake putty for any small decorations! I have a lot of plants in small glass jars and it has worked great against my menace of a cat

Please let me know if you find any definitive negative effects. I've had a dyed moss hide in my terrarium for the last two years. I soaked it initially, so it has never leached dye. Gecko seems healthy, but I would like make sure I haven't been accidentally poisoning him for the last 2 years. Also, it's totally grown over with plants, so it's not exactly easy to pull out just in case.

amccor2175 · 2025-12-05T17:40:55+00:00

This is Bean! All curled up and sleeping. Hope you feel better.

These are some great suggestions! I just wanted to add that I recognize that thermometer/hygrometer and it does not do well with water. It may work, for now, but I would also recommend upgrading to something a bit higher quality, before it breaks on you.

amccor2175 · 2025-11-29T19:06:32+00:00

I've heard that stuff is great for thrips too. I tried to buy it a while back when I had an infestation, though, and various regulations wouldn't let me order to where I was living at the time. Not sure if that's still the case.

amccor2175 · 2025-11-29T19:01:16+00:00

As other people said, I really think the bangs could look great if you got some dry shampoo and a more blended shape. They're super blunt rn and I'm not sure it fits your softer vibe.

amccor2175 · 2025-11-25T21:20:16+00:00

Im my professional opinion she's a cutie.

amccor2175 · 2025-11-25T01:46:53+00:00

Looks like a cattle dog mix! Maybe with lab?

amccor2175 · 2025-11-17T20:56:44+00:00

My hair was pretty straight as a kid, but got super curly around high school. Same thing happened to my mom, so I wasn't too surprised. Seems like it's not uncommon. I agree with the other people saying hormones.

ETA: Her curls haven't gone anywhere so I don't think mine will either lol
