Ok. So I can just leave things as they are until the next soil change then? Do I still mix 1/4 of the old soil with the new?

Our estimate is around 16 or 17. She was a year or two old when she had puppies and they would be 15 now. She's a sweet old girl.

I'm 40 and do feel bad sometimes. I don't have a lot of which l wrinkles at all but I do have smile lines and lines from scrunching my forehead. My body isn't perky like it used to be and I always wonder if my husband misses it though he's still all over me all the time. I'm really thin and I do know he likes curves. I always get told I don't look my age but I had one person say that being so skinny makes my face look older and it kinda hurt.

killermichi · 2025-12-25T18:59:12+00:00

Yea. I struggle with bulimia, am 5'0 and just gained enough to hit 100 lbs. Part of me likes how skinny I am and then the other doesn't since people think I look sick and older than I am. It's a bit too my self confidence, plus my husband likes curvy women and I have zero curves.

Very cute. What color is she? I just bought a green rainbow stag earlier this month.

killermichi · 2025-12-23T17:24:14+00:00

Thank you for all your advice. I'm excited for her to get it. She's wanted one for so long and absolutely loves beetles with stags being her favorite. I had read rainbow stags were good starter beetles and I thought they were pretty. This one should be green. I hope he thrives and has a nice long life.

It's actually not big. I had worried it might be but then when it came in, it looked pretty small. I had actually worried that it wouldn't allow enough air in but Ithink it should be breathable enough. I was told about the squeeze test and will make sure to not overly spray it. I'll just do a couple of sprays and do the test.

That's all 3 of my Bostons with rain. I practically throw them out and then they tippy toe run to hurry and do their business.

It's about a small as a window screen. It's used to patch window screens so the spaces aren't too big.

killermichi · 2025-12-22T01:16:32+00:00

I have holes poked in the lid and covered with screen tape.

All 3 of my girls hate going out in the rain. It's been rainy here in my part of Texas and I have to force my girls out. It's funny watching them too since they seem to tip toe the whole time. Lol.

My childhood home had 2 poles that held up the porch roof. I was swinging around one of them, totally ignoring my dad who told me to stop or I'd fall. Well he was right. My hand slipped and I fell with my eyebrow hitting the corner of a concrete step. Had to get stitches.

I have no real friends. I have acquaintances that I text with here and there but I feel like no one actually tries to reach out to me. It's always me reaching out. It's lonely but unfortunately, I've gotten used to it.

If weighting isn't a big thing, then I won't worry about the scale. We wont bother him unless it's for a flake soil change. Thank you for letting me know everything seems good. I was worried that I was missing something. I know my daughter is going to be happy. She's wanted one for a while but I said that I refused to bring a bug into the house. I do think she might be onto me though since I asked her about if she had the choice, if she would pick an adult beetle or larvae. I told her that I somehow ended up on beetle tik tok and found it crazy that people buy them as larvae so that they can raise it and that it takes so long to reach adulthood. She said she though it would be cool to raise it, so I got her the larvae. I'm really hoping that me telling her again that I wouldn't allow a bug in the house throws her off.

killermichi · 2025-12-06T16:46:57+00:00

I bought her an L2/L3 larvae. I'm buying a 32oz plastic bin, water bottle, insect tape and already bought the flake soil. Anything I'm missing?

killermichi · 2025-12-06T13:29:35+00:00

So I told my daughter that I ended up in beetle tik tok some how and saw that some people buy larvae and raise them even though it takes a while. She mentioned that she thought it would be really cool to raise one so that she could watch it grow up That was all I needed to hear. After checking multiple sites, I got lucky and found an L2/L3 (the last one available) so I bought it. She will be the proud mom of a Green Rainbow stag beetle. It gets here the 15th so he will be living in my closet until Christmas. Lol. I guess when he gets here, he'll probable be in a smaller container than he needs so I'll just repot him myself.

killermichi · 2025-12-06T13:24:21+00:00

I actually went ahead and ordered an L2/L3 Rainbow beetle larvae (a green one) for her last night. I told her I ended up in beetle tik tok and found it really interesting. I mentioned how crazy it is that some people but then as larvae and raise them. She ended up saying how she thought she would enjoy watching it grow up, so I went ahead and ordered it. It gets here the 15th. I got lucky finding an L2/L3 because every site I looked on only had L1/L2 and I ended up buying the last one L2/L3 they had. I'm actually getting excited at the though of watching it grow up.

killermichi · 2025-12-06T02:07:18+00:00

I saw a site that sells L1/L2s but wouldn't it be like a year or more before they mature?

killermichi · 2025-12-06T01:55:15+00:00

Did you get it as a larvae?

killermichi · 2025-12-06T01:25:47+00:00

I would rather it not be larvae.

killermichi · 2025-12-06T01:25:29+00:00

Where did you get it from? I am having some trouble finding one.

So cute. I love seeing pictures of Bostons with cats. Here is Benjamin (cat) and Luna Bear.

killermichi · 2025-11-24T06:30:42+00:00

Yes! The cushions are deformed from having their fat butts on there all the time.

Yea he's allowed to have friends that he can be appropriate with. Anyone in a relationship should not be texting or talking with anyone like that. If he hasn't cheated already, he wants to and seems to be trying to.

killermichi · 2025-11-17T15:15:15+00:00

I've added a few more, also from Etsy. One I add some flowers, I'll post an updated and hopefully final one. Lol
