Can anyone from the herp community help me??? I was out of town for a week while the rest of my family stayed at home. In that time period my leopard gecko Morgan seems to have had a really bad shed. Any advice on what I should do would be greatly appreciated!!!! It’s swollen and she’s not using it I’m worried it’s infected and might need to be amputated :( My vet is closed tomorrow and monday so I’m not sure when I’ll be able to get her in but I’m definitely working on it. She’s soaking right now so I can get the leftover shed off. Please reblog and tag those that you know of who would be able to help I’d really appreciate it.

Emergency vet. As soon as physically possible, this is really not good and there’s not a whole lot you’re going to be able to do on your own. followthebluebell may have a little more information but… vet.

[geckogalaxy]

I agree that this animal needs an E-vet asap. Most of the toes are a lost cause at this point, they’re not going to come back from this most likely. The swelling could be because of secondary infection, which seems likely imo. Even if the E-vet isn’t a reptile vet they can administer antibiotics until you can get her to an exotics vet. She needs to be treated literally as soon as you’re able.

[unum-in-multis]

I would recommend getting on arav.con and seeing if any of the herp vets in your state are open 24/7

I don't know what to do. My boyfriend and I just found out I'm pregnant, and just too far to get an abortion- so we've agreed to give the baby up for adoption, because we can't afford it. On a logical level, I'm ok with it, but on an emotional level, it's destroying me. All I can think about is that my baby will grow up calling someone else mommy, and be raised by some person who had no hand in their conception. This baby has grown hearing my heartbeat, being rocked to sleep by my walking- (pt1)

And I want to raise this baby holding him or her close to my heart, and being able to say, “This is my baby, I love him/her so much”… I don’t want to give my baby away, but idk what to do. I know it’s better for the baby but I can’t stand the thought of it. I want my baby, I don’t want to give my baby away.

I wanna start by saying that I support adoption for parents who don’t want to have children. For parents who can’t handle it.

But for parents who can’t afford it? I get physically sick thinking about the lifetime of emotional turmoil that results from giving up a child because of that. It breaks my heart that we normalize this as a culture. You have time to figure this out. You have more time than the next few months. Your newborn doesn’t care what you make, it doesn’t care what you drive, it doesn’t care where you live. You are its home, you are its whole WORLD, it’s food, it’s happiness.

Happy children are born into poverty every day. I was raised poor, my whole life, and I had my family, and love, and food, and that’s what I needed.

If you want your baby, keep your baby. Apply for WIC, for benefits, for Medicaid, everything you can. Look into donated cloth, ask your mom friends for hand me downs, do whatever you need to do. And then work your ass off to provide for her. Poverty isn’t permanent. Adoption is.

I recently made a post full of resources I can reblog for you and we are here for any more specific questions you have.

Giving up a child you want for adoption is something you won’t get over. Please don’t do it if your heart isn’t in it. It doesn’t need money, it needs love, and it sounds like you have that.

I want to clarify, I don’t think there’s a single thing wrong with adoption at all, but adoption coercion is nothing short of intense emotional abuse, and I don’t condone the wide spread coercion that we as a society place on poor mothers, on nueroatypical mothers, on mothers who don’t fit their idea of a perfect mother, to adopt. That, to me, is coercion, and it’s unacceptable.

Adoption is a good choice, when it’s a choice. Pressure to give up wanted children based on not meeting societal standards, however, is not acceptable to me.

Let me know were you live and I'll go into research mode and find you a bunch of help to keep your baby

[raisingwildlings]

Ugh how do I discourage waterbugs and roaches from coming into my house without potentially poisoning my kids

[unum-in-multis]

So water bugs are oriental cockroaches so it sounds like you have a double roach problem what you can try and only if you can keep the kids out is a combination of borax, sugar, & water it will make paste that the roaches will flock to they’ll eat it and die from the borax. You can put it in a soda cap and leave it by the door but the problem is keeping animals and kids away. There is really not a safe way to get rid of roaches because there so hard to kill.

[raisingwildlings]

Yeah, its not that we are dirty, its more the kids hide food and water bugs just live all over phoenixs water system

[unum-in-multis]

You don’t have to be dirty to have roaches they’ll go any were they can feed off something they will eat the glue holding your counter tops together, the calking in the bathroom, carpet fibers, dead skin. It not just food they go after.

How did you come up with the idea for The Giver?

[morelia-viridis-deactivated2020]

My Carefresh arrived, so it was cage cleaning time for Hunson and Harley. (I went for the colorful stuff this time–as long as I was getting a free one I wanted the more expensive color!) Hunson immediately hid in a hide, then slowly came out to investigate. Harley thought the floor had turned into lava and didn’t want to crawl on it at first.

[unum-in-multis]

Is this like rabbit bedding? If so I never realize you could use it for snakes.

I have a question for people who drink decaf

Why

[unum-in-multis]

To be honest I love coffee but I suffer from a major tachycardia problem so I can't have the caffeine but I don't want to give up coffee.

Eureka!

I think I figured out a formal for regulating periods, so here it goes...

Morning

- Coenzyme Q-10, 200MG X 1

- B Complex Plus Electrolytes & Vitamin C X 1

Must have B-1 (Thiamin), B-2 (Riboflavin), Niacin, B-6, B-12

Omega 3,5,6,7,8.9. 1400mg X 1

Calcium 600MG with 400 IU of Vitamin D X 1

Vitamin D3 5000IU X 1 every 10 days

Hair,Skin,Nails Gummie’s X 1

Prenatal gummie vitamin plus DHA X 1

Night

Calcium 600MG with 400 IU of Vitamin D X 1

Hair,Skin,Nails Gummie’s X 1

Prenatal gummie vitamin plus DHA X 1

Omega 3,5,6,7,8.9. 1400mg X 1

So far taking all of these has helped regulate periods for me but as always talk to your doctor before starting a regimen like this.

[unum-in-multis]

I know there are plenty of good mothers who have never had try but they will never know whats its like to have a pill schedule morning,noon, and nite they will never know whats its like to have a Primary care physician , Endocrinologist, Obgyn, and infertility doctor that you have to see every month they will never have to plan there life’s around medication side effects. This is by no means their fault but theirs no way they can relate to all the struggle of your own body just giving up on you. 

[unum-in-multis]

Ewww!

B complex vitamins smell like beef bullion cubes and the taste worst.

[unum-in-multis]

Here fishy, fishy!

So here’s to the Omega 3,5,6,7,9 May it actually work in regulating my hormones, increase cervical mucus, promote ovulation, improve the quality of my uterus, reduce inflammation, helping weight loss and much, much more.
