    COLD DARK ROOM

    I do still have him, it’s snowing out right now here in MA. Saturday will be rainy but mild, then the rest of the week next week looks like the lows are above freezing every night so a good amount of time for him to find a new communal to take the winter nap with before it gets cold cold again.

    Glueboard Garter

    He immediately got to the little water dish once in the tank and drank for a good while. I actually had an old water bottle cap in my truck right after finding it and poured a little water and held him up still stuck to it and despite the whole situation he drank then. I’m sure he does...

    Glueboard Garter

    Now imagine that smell inside a very small bathroom mixed with coconut oil. I was sitting there thinking “huh, the coconut oil smells REALLY gross, isn’t it usually more coconuty and less blah?” Then when I went to show the freed snake to the boyfriend he pointed out that it’s vent was open and...

    Glueboard Garter

    The boyfriend is totally accepting of “it’s your pet now isn’t it?” But I mean I know my Russian tort Franklin was a wild caught pet store tortoise and he had a rough go of it in the beginning. It’s not like I handle my reptiles much, Franklin HATES being touched, the corn snake is ok with it...

    Glueboard Garter

    Hi guys, it’s been a while since I’ve been a regular here. Anyway I’ll get right down to business, long story short I work in pest control, glueboards are used and I caught my first “oops” on one inside one of my high security buildings. A little garter snake. Brought him home and unstuck him...

    It’s funny I wrote that earlier because every bit of driving after I posted this earlier was agony, everyone wants to drive 60 in all the lanes when the speed limit is 65 and no one will stinking leave the left lane. I’m a calm and nice driver I really am but I’m feeling the road rage today...

    ah the predictable honorable Boston mention.The past several months in and around boston driving has been great, now people are coming back to work and things are worse than ever and the traffic isn’t even back yet so people are high speed driving like maniacs and can’t even hold in their own...

    I can’t say I personally know anyone, all our drivers at work are just DOT as I guess our boxes are just small enough. My cat would love the time together, he’s overly affectionate and guarantee would spend his life on the road on my lap, I’ve been on vacation and he’s loved every minute of my...

    Now this is the real scary news. Off and on for the past year I’ve considered spending the money to just get my Class A, I already spend a lot of time driving (pennies to trucker mileage but I also make a lot of stops as that’s the main part of my job) and seem to have what I call “small girl...

    COLD DARK ROOM

    Mine is the exact same!! He finds bugs then screams at them until I come remove them. And he’s got a set of lungs on him!

    I agree. And I know common sense isn’t that common, so it’s probably wrong of me just to assume that with the current plague being cough oriented that maybe just maybe if you had symptoms you’d think “huh, could be that highly contagious disease the world has right now maybe I should stay away...

    I get that some populations it would be important to do testing. But fact is, if I catch it (and I know the likelihood is there, especially with how much I travel around for work exposing myself to plenty of populations) I’m not just going to go rush to get tested, in fact unless I had...

    It’s hard because he’s a huge loudmouth, until you take out the camera.

    COLD DARK ROOM

    It’s funny, the cat can be doing literally anything else across the apartment but if I walk by the tank and say “hi snaky!!” The cat comes running and assumes the watch position. All I picture is the bird on Alice in Wonderland “Seeeerpant, serpaaaant!!” Because my cat is quite vocal.

    COLD DARK ROOM

    The best form of kitty TV. Salem has never been interested in Franklin, I’m fact might be scared of him when he goes on rampages clunking against the wooden edges of his box, but this cat sure as heck cares about the snake. And I’m pretty sure the snake provokes him because he doesn’t even...

    Can anyone tell me what’s going on and if he’s gonna die

    The first winter I had my Russian tortoise he decided to go on some type of a hunger strike right at the very end of winter. I tried everything, even leaving him romaine since that’s one of the leafy greens that aren’t a tomato he’ll go nuts for (romaine isn’t good for a diet but when he wouldnt...

    Ouch. I don’t drink and haven’t in over 3 years but the boyfriends old roommate was a fairly severe alcoholic, and it’s no joke alcohol withdrawals can kill. Meanwhile all we’re really concerned about here in MA is if the dispensaries are going to close.

    Plants for indoor enclosure

    As for the Chinese money plant aka Pilea Peperomiodes first off you’ll likely pay a lot for your tortoise to bulldoze it, because its one of the popular “trending” interior plants, also pileas are total jerks as a plant to keep. I would plant cups with dandelion seeds (once the flowers come...
