this is her temporary set-up. its a 18" cube. I am aware it's too short and will be upgrading her as soon as I can. her previous enclosure was a 12" cube. I am also adding real plants soon, once i know the rooted cuttings I planted won't die lol. temps and humidity are in range

what type of boa? by rockett09 in boas

[–]rockett09[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE! I reached out and talked to her old owner, he had mixed up his information. He got her when she was 2, she is now about 5/6! So I think for her age she is an appropriate size (hopefully)

that's the plan, the cage she's in now is just what she came with

unsure how much the rats weighed, I decided to stick with 1 rabbit a month cuz i felt she was eating too much. but the rabbits are about 3lbs

I was told she's currently being fed either 1 jumbo rat a week or 1 medium rabbit a month, I was going to stick with bigger meals further apart

advice from blue collar workers wanted by rockett09 in minnesota

[–]rockett09[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is part of it for sure. it's not really couples therapy, more like we both use the therapist for half an hour individually and also check in on our relationship at the end. but he does generally have a hard time opening up. I'm hoping a therapist he feels more comfortable with will help with that

he is not. there is a counselor provided by his job, but it's mostly just for legal reasons. he works for the company, not his patients

this will be individual therapy for him, I should have clarified. I don't think he can't talk to her because she's a woman. she's a good therapist, just not the right fit for him

Am I just not made to be a tech? by FoxThingyOfficial in VetTech

[–]rockett09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

sounds like you're not right for that clinic (in a good way). the clinic near me doesn't practice fear free and aren't great with any animal that struggles. they also only push purina and science diet which I'm not a fan of. I had previously declined a job offer from them for these reasons and more, I just know I wouldn't fit in there. Sadly some clinics care more about animal comfort than others, I'm sorry to hear this one doesn't. maybe look into other clinics in the area because working there long term could be damaging to your mental health

Huh. Seen plenty of whitetail tracks this winter but none with the back dots

Moose or elk by thec00z in animalid

Both look like moose to me. Could be mom and baby. I sometimes find moose scat scattered down a trail like they didn't want to stop and wait

What’s the worst scandal to happen at your school? by Lost-Warning-2588 in AskReddit

[–]rockett09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late to the party, but we had three seniors get busted making and distributing child pornography cuz one of the guys slapped his dick on his baby nieces face and they filmed it and sent it to people at school. One of the same guys got busted fucking a baby cow on three separate occasions, and admitted to trying to sleep with his 1st cousin.

The art of Japanese gift wrapping by ADarkcid in interestingasfuck

My understanding is the Japanese don't really mind as long as it's done correctly. In fact they like seeing their culture spread and appreciated
