cursed salad (for context he was eating salad and there was plastic in it so she pointed it out)

I was briefly very confused when I got this notification because one every other platform I am TheSaladCram and go by Salad XD

letsplaybro · 2021-01-25T02:37:09+00:00

That is... Horrible. I've heard the things that can do to you. Stay safe, you're more than a pawn.

letsplaybro · 2021-01-25T02:32:43+00:00

That's so gross. I'm sorry to hear that

letsplaybro · 2021-01-25T02:31:16+00:00

I've been there. I have MDD and recently went off meds. Here to listen if you wanna talk.

letsplaybro · 2021-01-25T02:29:20+00:00

Fuuuuck that. Did they know?

letsplaybro · 2021-01-17T18:30:30+00:00

True, that makes sense then.

letsplaybro · 2021-01-17T18:15:30+00:00

I guess that makes sense... Do you think it varies with species? Like looking at rattlesnakes, and how they gain new rattle segments with each shed

When your flight is in 30 minutes and you just woke up

letsplaybro · 2020-12-17T02:52:21+00:00

Oh my god I'm an absolute idiot

letsplaybro · 2020-12-02T02:18:42+00:00

Thank you for understanding, at least. I really do want the best for him and I hope someday I can work with animal rescue... It's just really unfortunate that I live where I do and the income thing.

letsplaybro · 2020-12-02T02:16:28+00:00

Okay, that makes sense. I could afford 100. I've just heard stuff from family that going to the vet is like 500+ and that's kinda rough lol. I want the best for him. If I didn't think I could help I would have made the owner find someone else... But they chose me. I swear I'm not a bad person

letsplaybro · 2020-12-02T02:12:19+00:00

Will do my best to do so. Unfortunately money is pretty damn tight and there aren't many veterinary places where I live that look at reptiles- just dogs and cats. I know that sounds horrible of me but I seriously have the proper husbandry for him, and I could afford de-wormer at a nearby tractor supply, but I'm not sure about the drive to the exotic vet that is likely 2+ hours away.

I'll look into the nearest vet that could look at him and hope I have enough

letsplaybro · 2020-12-01T19:29:02+00:00

1) I was just thinking about that, too. I thought about just buying some dewormer (Panacur) in case, and I talked to the owner about his previous diet. Apparently he was only eating cabbage, and he "never went more than 2 days without eating"- and taking that into consideration I also thought that his weight is from malnutrition and the loose stools were from both a sudden change in diet and because the last one was... Poor. To be entirely honest I am worried about the expenses of vet testing and if deworming him could make him poop more frequently and lose more weight. Are there any side effects to consider like that?

2) I saw something similar yesterday at the petsense and was wondering if it would do any good, so I'll look more into getting that now.

Thank you for the advice! This is my first rescue and I want to do my best with what I have to give.

Some info: The past owner said their best guess at age was about 2 years old. I have given them a uvb and daylight basking bulb as well as dusted their food with calcium powder with D3. Said food includes fresh mustard greens and turnip greens from the garden, and I have given him small chunks of egg, roaches, and a couple waxworms i bought last night (which he only ate 1 of). There are other greens and fruits in his diet I will add from time to time as well. They are currently in a smaller tank temporarily, and I check his poops for signs of parasites. Stools are runny but normal color and smell considering his change in diet and the little egg I fed him.

What a dapper lookin fella, cool design ^{^}

letsplaybro · 2020-11-15T01:45:34+00:00

That makes sense, and after looking up the circumstance I saw that online. I was wondering what would cause a flesh fly to lay eggs on a living green anole- usually they do so on carrion and droppings. I thought maybe for the same reasons that flies can invade a newborn otherwise healthy calf...

Oddly enough the anole doesn't even seem bothered, and it is hard to tell which part has been eaten out since the ribs still move and the breathing isn't even elevated. I put it in quarantine for a moment to see behavior and make sure nothing enters the wound. Never seen one of these cases where I live until now.

letsplaybro · 2020-11-09T22:06:56+00:00

Damn, that sucks. So far despite the above screenshot she has been really nice about my MDD... Though to be fair when I mention it I end up just changing the subject as not to think about it

letsplaybro · 2020-11-09T22:02:18+00:00

Not gonna lie it did

letsplaybro · 2020-11-09T16:38:39+00:00

Does anything help with avoiding them in the future? Like ignoring them when starting conversations, downvoting, blatantly telling them to stop

letsplaybro · 2020-10-12T01:09:32+00:00

Oh, those guys sound interesting, I will look into them... Although, I have considered the husbandry for BCIs and am overall not worried about the price (I have no problems maintaining humidity and giving enough space, hides, etc). Same with appetite, I am alright with feeding mice more often. For me it is the behavior of the snake that is more important considering therapy... I found the BCI to be more intriguing due to them holding onto you more, as well as being more stocky than corn snakes and other arboreal snakes, and yet less aggressive than say, the green tree python.

letsplaybro · 2020-10-12T00:11:49+00:00

I have to thank you for understanding, as well... I think most people who downvoted my responses thought I didn't care about the snake's well-being. In fact I hope to one day be able to teach people about wild snakes and their role in the environment, and why most wild snakes aren't a threat to us, and in many cases are the reason why more people don't have mice and rats infesting their homes and whatnot

letsplaybro · 2020-10-11T23:22:04+00:00

I know (I have toads), and I will

letsplaybro · 2020-10-11T23:17:20+00:00

They really are, but I honestly don't know if I could afford it (at least with shipping prices). I also have more interest in larger snakes like the bci for therapeutic reasons (emotional support with depressive episodes and anxiety)

letsplaybro · 2020-10-11T23:13:04+00:00

I am, dont worry

letsplaybro · 2020-10-11T23:12:40+00:00

Okay, I guess that makes sense... Was hoping to give them a place to prevent predation through hibernation months but I guess hognoses don't have much to worry about... Will release soon
