    Spring Weeds!

    Wow, thank you so much for your help! :) I believe the vining plant actually is a vetch because I saw some purple flowers like this on the plant: I’ll make sure to take more pictures of the “lupine” by itself!

    Spring Weeds!

    I would also like to mention that I downloaded an app to identify these plants, but it did not give accurate results, so if anyone has app recommendations, I would love to hear them!

    Spring Weeds!

    Hello! I found a lot of healthy plants when I was walking my dogs, and I wanted to double check the following plants’ identification. 1) I believe these are wild radish! 2) Not really sure what this is... 3) 4) Maybe clover? 5) I believe these are medics. 6) I think this is mustard, but I’m...

    Cruelty beyond words... please adopt him in California!

    Poor thing! ? His face is so sweet. But unfortunately, this is how the world is at the moment, and I can’t even imagine how many animals get injured or abused every day. I pray that Michelangelo recovers quickly and will continue to live a long and healthy life.

    Cocos habitat and life updates

    Remember, Mazuri is a supplement. It is not needed at the moment if you have the layer crumbles. I think you are fine right now. Also, if you are curious about hibernation, you can look at this thread as well (post #19 by Tom). Just keep in mind that Coco cannot brumate this year because you...

    Cocos habitat and life updates

    You mean like gnats or fruit flies? They’re probably just eating some left over food in the enclosure. One or two won’t harm him. If it really bothers you or Coco, I’m sure some people on the forum can help you out. I’ve heard of placing sticky pads on the side of the enclosure walls to trap the...
