Is it sarcoptic of Demodectic mange?

I have no idea if Ella was a pit mix. Most old school APBT folks said she looked purebred to them. And she sure as heck acted like a pit bull. Drive and all.:D And good, if you like Luke better, you can take his food guarding issues and over exuberance with him.:main_thumbsup: Nah, he's...

Thanks, guys. We heard about Ophie through a friend of mine who volunteers with a rescue in Chicago. The rescue pulls dogs from animal control in Chicago, and then places them in foster homes until they can be adopted out. But there is a daycare/training facility that they'll board dogs at...

This is not a memorial, it's been over 2 months and I STILL cannot bring myself to post a memorial thread for her even on my site. The short of it is: Ella got lymphoma. Like, literally overnight. She was fine on Mother's Day, May 9th. We had company over, and she was outside with us...

Thanks, guys!!! I appreciate the compliments. These little mice are something else! I LOVE them. Henney (the orange/blonde mouse) likes to climb up into my hair and he'll brux (it's a vibrating they do and a grinding/clicking noise they make when they're happy) and dig around in my pony...

Thanks, guys! I'm having so much fun building popsicle stick houses for them. The one I just got done building didn't fit right in the cage.:( I ended up keeping the ladders I made for it, though.

Yeah, I know. I'm probably one of the very few pet mice owners that has come to terms with the fact that, yes, mice are commonly used for snake food. And that's ok. I mean, if I had a snake that I HAD TO feed live to, and the snake wouldn't eat, what would I do with the mice then? Kill...

So, I went to visit my friend over the weekend. She has 2 snakes, ball pythons, that are about 13 years old. Her female will eat frozen/thawed, but her male won't and requires to be fed live. So, she'll go to the pet store and ask for mice. Well, her male wasn't interested in eating. She...

The blade was not on, or even warm, when I cut my finger on it. My husband is just THAT MUCH of a slacker.:main_laugh:

Well, I cut myself on a rope burning knife once. Just the year before last. It's this hot blade that we heat up and use to cut our ropes for our leashes we make. My husband used it and left it on the side of the counter next to the stove. I was cooking dinner, and the spatula slipped in the...

Oh NOEZ. I am so worrieeedz about teh tetanus now.:main_laugh: No, I'm not. ooops. I mean, I had one...like, over 10 years ago, but not since. My xacto knife is not rusty. I LUV U, THO, ROBIN.:p

Thanks, guys. hahahaha, I'm such a wuss. I do NOT want to use super glue, Robin!!!:main_laugh: And I definitely am NOT pouring alcohol on it! It didn't look that bad when I took the band-aid off. But it's not ready to close completely up yet. So I will be keeping a band-aid on it...

Not all of us are capable of memorizing EVERY morph, ESPECIALLY if we do not own that morph or are currently working with it. Some of us have more things to do in life than to memorize leopard gecko morphs. I'm sure you are one of those people. Also, some of us are newer to leopard geckos...

I cut my finger last night making a collar for a customer. I use an X-acto knife, and I guess I thought that I wasn't all the way through the leather, so I kept pushing the knife down. And my finger slid right down the blade.:( And I panicked because, I swear, I'm a wuss. Anytime I cut...

Thanks, guys!!! Kristi, YES. You must hurry up and come visit before he gets ANY bigger! Actually, you should come over once we have his new enclosure built, and he'll be much comfier. :main_yes:
