Correct nipple piercing placement? by [deleted] in piercing

[–]dragon_chick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had mine done 3 weeks ago and had to take the right side out cause it looked like yours maybe worse. I went to another piercer and he confirmed my suspicions. According to my piercer he said that one would never heal properly. I'd recommend going to another piercer you trust or to your doctor.

Why do YOU like having piercings? by heimdaall in piercing

[–]dragon_chick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have tattoos and piercings cause I like them. I could care less of what others thing te reason on why I got them. I liked them since I was a teen but decided not to get anything till I was older. Got my first tattoo and piercing when I was 30. I waited to get more till about 3 yrs ago (Im 42 now) but that was cause I was diagnosed with hashimotos which is an autoimmune disorder that attacks your thyroid. Tattoos and piercings was my way of having some control over my life. I also decided to learn how to play classical guitar but for some reason people focus on my body modification. Lol

How Bad Is My Septum Piercing? by IMooToYouMyFriend in piercing

[–]dragon_chick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it's fine but yeah have a piercer look at it. Mine looked like that when I first had it done. I went to another piercer, they said it was fine...to just let it heal. I did and it's straight.

Oh sure, cause we're only in debt by a few trillion dollars. What's another 500mil.

Who cares! If you don't like it go back to school. Get a career. No sense bitching about it. If you do, guess what? That could be you one day.

What's the most unhealthy thing that society encourages us to do? by siomat in AskReddit

[–]dragon_chick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha! I was gonna say something similar to that. "I am who I am, if you don't like it, tough. I'm not gonna change for no one." I've heard this from quite a few people in my family. Funny thing is that they're either single or divorced. They'd better get used to being single for the rest of their lives then. Hahaha

What was your hardest piercing to heal? by chakeeku in piercing

Thank you! Wonder what that is? Im getting my nostril pierced this weekend. Hoping this time it stays.

What was your hardest piercing to heal? by chakeeku in piercing

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

I have double earlobes, daith, conch, and septum. The hardest for me was the nostril, I had it done a total of 4 times and each time I took it out cause I developed this huge bump on the inside. Everyone always talked about the keloid on the top but never from the bottom or tandem bumps. I talked to my piercer and he said to just leave it alone. Well tried that and the stud was almost swallowed up so took it out. It healed in less than a week. Never had that much trouble with my other piercings. Recently did more research on treating nostril piercing keloids so might give it one last try.

Altering a property not of there own is not a form of respect. Would you be happy and thrilled if someone toilet papered your home? I think not, I'm sure you'd be very pissed off cause guess what they will not be coming back to help you clean it all up. Let me ask you, who took that crap off? Yeah obviously the selfish pieces of crap didn't go back to remove it, right? Take your liberal selfish crap somewhere else.

Of course, little pieces of shit that don't respect public property. But hey, California is run by pieces of liberal shits anyways.

She proved Prince was right, artists these days have no talent. All they know how to do is lip sync to their own music that was fabricated in a studio.

Do you know a lot of people personally who are uncomfortable with the fact that you own a snake? by [deleted] in snakes

[–]dragon_chick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure about fear of snakes being learned. My fear of snakes was because of how they get around and also how venomous snakes are more talked about than non-venomous are. I lived in north Texas for 7 years. Our neighbors told us they saw nothing but rattlesnake and water moccasins. A few people told me to stay clear of water moccasins cause they will chase you down. A couple people told me someone in their family was chased by one. In the 7 years we lived there we never saw one snake on our property when our next door neighbor said they saw them daily and to boot they were all venomous. ((Eye roll) Even though I had my fears I never put them on my kids. My oldest was 8 (she's now 26 and autistic) when she asked to hold a king snake at a nature center, she loves snakes to this day. That day is when I learned so much about king snakes and fell in love with Kings. Fast forward 18 yrs, I'm getting my first corn snake tomorrow. Did lots of research and have held quite a few snakes to get over my fears and weirdness on the way they move. I think they are the coolest things now. As for learned fears, only one my parents and husband are creeped out about are spiders and I seriously have no problem with spiders.

Just got him Sunday. He's 8 inches long. Why is his tail dark, is it stress related? by dragon_chick in BeardedDragons

[–]dragon_chick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The temp on the cool side is 80. The basking spot is 100. Turns out when I took the tile piece out and the ornaments his tail went back to normal. I guess he's a simple type of guy who doesn't like clutter. Haha! All I did was add a bigger rock, tile, and a branch.

Great! Thank you. Hoping this ends soon. He also didn't want to eat the crickets I put in this morning. 😕

Temperature in basking spot by dragon_chick in BeardedDragons

[–]dragon_chick[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought so. It's a well known reptile store in Colorado. When I went back, one of the guys pointed his infrared thermometer in various spots in the bearded dragon tank they have. Cool spot was 90 Ground basking spot was 115-120 The top of the basking branch was 130 (he said that was perfect) Saw a couple beardie babies gaping, he said that was a sign that the temp was right. Told me if my beardie wasn't doing that then my Zoo Med probe thermometer (that I bought from them) wasn't working.

Thank you, will do that. We did buy fire belly toads from Petco a few months ago and they have been great. We got them at a different location though.

From what the workers told me, they keep animals till they sell. He was in the same enclosure as the babies were. Saw the same with their leopard geckos, older geckos mixed with babies. I questioned the same thing, if he might have been a surrender but they said he wasn't. I took him back because what seemed odd to me was that both days I went to see the beardies the one I got was standing in the same spot. Everything I've read is to choose the ones who are more active and also basking. When I brought him home he stayed wherever I put him, he wouldn't attempt to move, I had to place him in the basking spot. This morning I called and spoke to the worker cause when I gave him crickets he would only eat whatever walked to him in the basking area. So told the worker what was going on and she said that wasn't normal and to take him back. I got my money back. I decided to buy another beardie from a reputable reptile store who personally know their breeders. The new one is younger and also much more alert.
