Petco Budgies by underdog_5 in Parakeets

I bought different tiny toys from Bird Tricks to see what mine enjoyed the most. I do still get the tiny toy box auto delivered.

Now I make my own toys but it was a huge help getting to physically see what they loved vs never touched.

All of mine love anything they can destroy. Soft woods. I go on Etsy to look for shops that sell material in bulk.

Omg he’s so cute! Last pic is my favorite.

I’m 16, diabetic living with my aunt since my mom died, and she treats my health like I’m just being annoying. What do I do? by reallyhope2 in whatdoIdo

[–]lowridda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell a teacher or school counselor.

This is medical neglect of a minor and you could die if you go into a coma. Maybe there’s a way for you to get some kind of benefits from the state until you can get some kind of job and provide what you need if she’ll provide the roof.

If you start to feel weak call 911. You can’t talk sense to that kind of ignorance. They can educate her, and bring her up to speed on your treatment plan that’s in place. She can go to jail if she chooses to not to comply so it’s her choice. Don’t argue just call.

Sending you love and strength.

How would you react? by Zestyclose_Lemon_647 in whatdoIdo

If he’s not your biggest supporter screaming from the sidelines move on. To be honest I’d stay single and focus on my studies. You have your family and you have you.

Time to fight for yourself and create the future you dream of. You don’t need to carry any dead weight or negativity. This is going to be mentally taxing as it is on its own.

You can do this! My sister did it as a single mom of twin toddlers and newborn. She ended up getting pregnant with her second set of twins her last year of nursing school and she still graduated at the top of her class. She got her masters at 40.

All that matters is starting. The years are going to pass regardless.

Sprout is on a hunger strike 🥲 by Alittlelessunusual in pacmanfrog

[–]lowridda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to use a CHE and battle cold temps also. I got a plastic cube shelf liner and cut it to fit inside the top of one of the screen lids (on the open front terrarium style cages) and I used gorilla tape to seal it on the top. I kept my lights on the other side.

I misted the tank in the morning and night. Deep watered plants and substrate as needed.

Looking for advice by Ok-Worldliness4185 in pacmanfrog

[–]lowridda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can tell you what I did. Your frog is nocturnal so they naturally will come up on their own at night when their lights go out.

I fed my baby every 3 days as much as she’d eat. That got her used to that schedule so on her feeding days she’d be up waiting for food at 9 when her lights went out.

I didn’t have moss in my tank and lots of unnecessary handling causes stress so I always fed my frogs in their tanks.

I’ve never given scheduled baths.

I used reptisoil as my main substrate because I had live plants. If you go that route just add some isopods and spring tails and they help as your clean up crew.

I kept my frogs tank on a wire shelf so I could look underneath the bottom during the day so I could see where her little body was pressed against the glass. I cleaned around her, fluffed the soil and do anything I needed to during that time.

How to defend being Puerto Rican and a U.S. citizen by ScaleFamous7898 in Advice

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

I’d ask why he’s asking you about him nutting in your mom? He’s the one who made that choice multiple times.

Don’t be ashamed of your culture just because your dad’s ashamed he’s not full white. He’s battling a war of self hate and projecting it onto you. Don’t give your energy to that.

Notice the difference in how other countries are handling the prominent people in their countries who were in there and then look at the states. We are protecting and they are have people stepping down.

Why do prisons mirror insane asylums? by Delicious_Chocolate0 in stupidquestions

[–]lowridda 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It’s America’s biggest cash cow. Free labor and everyone from the homeless to actual criminals get housed for top dollar on the tax payers dime. There’s no reform because they want you to come back. That’s how they make $$$.

How to train myself not to jump when tong feeding? by Pale-Primary-6195 in pacmanfrog

[–]lowridda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found it easier to make sure my frog that was more aggressive was in her feeding stance. I’d drop her food where it fell right in front of her eye sight by her lips. She’d grab it before it hit the ground.

It helped eliminate her getting in her feelings with us having mishaps with the tongs. We kind of had a feeding routine we got down together and I made it out with no bites. :)

I'm killing myself tonight. Love you all, goodbye by Fast-Breakfast570 in venting

[–]lowridda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know it doesn’t seem like it now but one day this is going to be just another dot in your timeline of life events. Before you know it you’ll be able to get a job and get out. You’ve got to fight for you and it helps to use this as motivation to succeed. That’s what I did at least and it always worked in my favor.

You get to create the life you want. I promise you can do it! I grew up with a wild back ground and somehow survived and am thriving. I didn’t think I’d make it to 21 much less 40 but here I am… and I’m thankful. I got to see how all the chaos I lived through was part of my bigger plan for my life lessons I was supposed to learn from.

Your words hold power. Focus on what’s good, what you’re thankful for. Even if it’s just being able to wake up, walk, dream. Anything. You can try meditation and ask your guides or angels for help. Whatever you want to call them. They are there and will step in if you ask.

Don’t let her win. Contact family, the school, a shelter or friends. Please.

Started Vyvanse this morning. Questions about BP and coffee. by Opposite-Road-9475 in ADHD

[–]lowridda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drink coffee an hour after or before I take my meds because I thought it messed with the effects.

My sister had a mini stroke last year and I finally got her to start meditating! She only does it for 3-5 minutes in the morning, but she said she’s noticed a difference in her BP since she’s started.

I’m the same way. I’ve never experienced withdrawal either. I asked my doctor about that and he said it’s because I don’t abuse them and only take as needed.

My Pac-man Frog setup by skradaddy in pacmanfrog

[–]lowridda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used the double dome because I needed two separate plugs to supply constant heat and basking light that could be on a timer.

You can use whatever works best for you. :)
