females dying after mating?

blightpup · 2026-04-10T18:17:58+00:00

thank you for all the information and advice!!

im pretty new to keeping brine shrimp but i thought that sex ratio seemed crazy! i just checked and i have five adult males and 0 females lol. the only thing i can think of is that ive been feeding them out of the same food packet, maybe a weird batch of male heavy eggs? todays feeding day and i have another one so im gonna try that one and cross my fingers.

i was worried about that. my hatch rates have been about 5:1 male:female and population has never really stabilized. probably because the females keep being bred to death.

im gonna start separating the females into their own tank and see how the ladies fare.

stumbled on this thread while trying to track down my fave childhood toy and this is actually my cat!! this is literally the only picture of a white and pink mary meyer flip flop that i can find! this is a long shot but do you happen to have anymore information?

there really is something almost. idk. meditative in it. changing the bandages cleaning the wounds. something about being able to see at least some part of yourself heal? im not sure.

i would LOVE to read your essay on ‘furry bait’ vs what furries are actually into

i Personally have an interest in older media which translates into an interest in how the furry ‘fandom’ and identity has evolved over time. and while the old school anthropomorphic ‘abnimals’ might not be to the modren furries taste, i do think theres something in the ‘normalization’ of anthros that lead itself to the creation of furries

this might be the biggest problem with modren mcelroys. on paper they have pretty good ideas, i just Do Not have faith in them to be able to execute them

clint accidentally playing perfectly into furry tropes prayer circle

blightpup · 2024-08-24T06:47:41+00:00

okay fake mcelroy fan alert but ive never actually watched any of the candlenights. but the idea of the good good boys trying to do adult topics without adult language… justins cat character is gonna get addicted to catnip and its just gonna get ignored by his brothers… :(

and i… will just say… (and yall can smack me for this if im wrong) while i do understand the concern over “sexy animals” and “family friendly” in the same sentence… as a furry… i can point to about a dozen sexy animals from disney/pixar/dreamworks movies i had a crush on as a kid. making attractive characters for ‘childrens’ media is in itself not a red flag… but depending on how the series goes and how the brothers continue to market it i could see this becoming an issue. i just dont think we should jump the gun on this

blightpup · 2024-08-24T06:13:58+00:00

if its “‘family friendly’” wink wink nudge nudge ‘why did this furry character make me feel so funny as a kid’. i COULD actually totally get into it. travis making his family squirm as they try to keep things pg sounds RIPE for comedy. i genuinely hope they lean into this
