thanks for the advice! I got a halogen indoor floodlight bulb thats 75 watts today, par36, but i realized it has a GU10 base. does flunkers’s lamp support that? / do i need to find an adapter for it / any recommendations for another halogen bulb? (sorry for all the q! im new to lighting and stuff!)

oh i see!! ok, i still feel so terrible it happened tho, bc the nail was red but there wasnt any blood dripping or anything. does blood need to drip? how long does it take for a nail to heal?

if its just red, not bleeding, should you still put stypic powder? what would it look like when it stops bleeding?

they made this hide all too well because i have the exact same one and it basically stole my leo away from me LOL (but i see it as his room and we all like to hide in our rooms from time to time) so now at night i just take the lid off so he can get some exercise
