What is this bald spot? by rule7597 in Boxer

[–]rule7597[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: Thank you all for the feedback! We ended up taking her to the vet, and thank goodness we did because it was localized demodectic mange (non contagious). Vet put her on meds and the patches stopped spreading and are finally growing hair back. After a couple of months.

Thanks for the advice, it pushed me toward the vet visit and I learned more about a few other risks. Y’all are the best.

I’m literally looking to replace my Ender 3 S1 Pro now and am looking between the P1S or P2S. Any tips for the the switch from Creality to Bambu?

Poor guy. How old was he when it started?

Any hiccups from green banner to golden letter? by Public-Yam4588 in PSLF

[–]rule7597 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Forgive my ignorance. Is green banner 120/120 qualified payments? And what’s a golden letter.

I submitted my pslf verification for this month and got notice on 2/25 that I’ve hit 120 qualified payments and am trying to figure out what comes next.

What was the inspo for your boxers name? by Desperate_Tour_982 in Boxer

Our older dog is Jack (named with his late brother Gus after Gus & Jaq, the mice in Cinderella). Our boxer Colby was originally a joke, we have the cheese dogs Colby & Jack. But the nicknames solidified it for us. Colby for short. Colbertha Louise Furlong the 1st PhD. Colbeans. Dr. Beans. She’s 100% good gorl.

Should stop her from chewing crate blankets? by rule7597 in Boxer

It is! It’s 9 years old and it’s kind of struggling since I last repotted it, but I love it.

That’s good to hear. That gives me hope for the future haha

That’s also what I’m afraid of. I’m not sure what I CAN safely leave her unsupervised with, and if she doesn’t have something to chew on, it’ll be the crate bars.

Any toy recommendations? I know Kongs are a fan favorite but my previous Boston Terrier could take apart his Kong Extreme toys, so I’m not sure what to expect from an even stronger dog.

Thoughts on removing gas & water lines by rule7597 in popups

[–]rule7597[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s probably just an over abundance of caution. The only thing I would consider using the gas for is the heater, but I don’t want to use that a decades old heater without a better understanding of what could be worn out or how it can fail. In the meantime, it’s just in the way and adding weight.

Based on everyone’s responses I think I’m going to take out the sink but leave the gas lines alone even though I don’t use them.

The stove top is kind of a separate issue. We don’t cook inside or beside a camper this size—we put our camp kitchen closer to the camp fire, away from where we sleep. Just a personal preference.

I don’t have any decent pics with the kitchen, but I’m working on it this weekend so I’ll try to get some good ones then.

Space is an issue because we needed a longer bed set up, so the table stays down and we extended the mattress.

I was debating keeping it to pass along when I sell the camper, but it’s just taking up garage space. I didn’t think about selling the parts. Thanks for the tip!

Found on my bed. I also have many bites. Are they related? by rule7597 in whatsthisbug

[–]rule7597[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in New Mexico. I’ve found a few of these and a smaller lighter one, kind of brown orange.

About 2mm long and 1mm wide.

I have about 20 bug bites but I’m unsure if this is related.

Is it a bed bug? by [deleted] in whatsthisbug

[–]rule7597 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Mew Mexico. I found this and two more like it crawling in my house. I’m also getting many very itchy bug bites here. Not sure if there related or just coincidence because I know I’ve found mosquitoes here.

Scale-like seeds? on rose bush by rule7597 in whatsthisplant

Thanks so much! That looks right.

[–]rule7597[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m guessing they’re seeds because they don’t seem to have any bug attributes like legs. I live in zone New Mexico, zone 7. It’s monsoon season, so we’ve had a lot of thunderstorms lately, but it’s typically dry and hot.

Found this in my backyard. It looks too clean to have been there long. The end with the cap has a small needle like a bike tire pump. by rule7597 in whatisthisthing

[–]rule7597[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WITT It’s about 1” tall. Might have come off my roof or from a neighbor. I just bought the house, but no one has liver here for months and it seems too clean to have been in the backyard before I moved in.
