So, when sunflowers flower do they not need sunlight any more? Can they live in a room cut of from sunlight? What happens if you put them in direct sunlight? I'm trying to find out what killed my last sunflower.

why do normies exaggerate everything as THE BEST THING EVER
how can a person's life be so lacking in quality that they go this far out of their way to pretend every minor event is of extraordinary significance
every zoo should have a normie exhibit
>>2404345
Maybe many things in life ARE amazing and wonderful, but your nihilism prevents you from enjoying most of them.
>>2404274
They flower, then die. Nbd.
Please help. This is on my dog and I don't know what it is
>>2404185
Please help. This is on my board And he won't go to a vet.
>>2404185
It's some kind of infection. Stop fucking with it and take your dog to the vet as soon as they are open.
My mother is paranoid and this is the best picture I could manage.
Is this a bedbug?
>>2404179
That's what I told her but she keeps insisting it is, thanks.
>>2404182
you're welcome.
I can't ID yours from the pic but bedbugs don't have all those little hairs all over. They look a bit like beetles.
> When your pet mouse doe has bloody diarrhoea and severe dehydration and she refuses your attempts at rehydration and she invariably will die a protracted death unless you cervically dislocate her or hope she gets better, knowing that she will suffer awfully regardless.
Should I cervically dislocate her now or should I wait and see?
She's a thin runt that's been with me for 2 months. She survived her first dehydration episode. Now, she's lethargic, but not in her death throes yet.
>>2404057
Just shove some fruit down her throat.
Its a mouse so it probably only has 6 more good months left in its life if it survives this.
Don't make it suffer. You know what you have to do.
>tfw this orphan rat pup has survived 24 hrs in my care
I think she is about 3 days old now. When can I expect this tiny thing to suddenly die on me?
Can we have a cardinal thread?
>>2403873
I got you tomorrow man, I've got about seven under my control after five days of sunflower seed feeding. They only pop up at 7-9am and 7-8pm though so no pictures until they get more comfortable or make their daily visits tomorrow.

I watched this hummingbird land on my pool heater. He looked distraught and even let me touch him. I stood next to him for about 5 minutes until he flew away to a nearby tree. Can anyone tell me more about him? Any cool facts about the worlds cutest birds are appreciated as well.
>>2403744
>my pool heater
privileged whitey detected. y'all do not deserve hummingbirds
>>2403751
shut up, nigger
>>2403744
Don't know much but if I were you I would set up a hummingbird feeder, though I would be sure to make sure to check for mantises
Hey guys. I put my dog out and the birds in the tree in rh back yard started going apeshit. I noticed he was standing by a bird so I went over and put him in the shoebox. One of his legs is fucked up and he can't move much but still alive. What do I do?
phone a animal shelter or animal charity.
>>2403738
a local one to you, like in the UK is rspca
End his suffering, bury him alive.
Anyone else have goats? What breeds? Funny stories?
Pic related are my dwarves
I'd love to have some someday. Do you raise them for meat or milk, or just as pets?
>>2403705
Mostly milk, but the males are given away/sold as pets after they are neutered and dehorned. Nigerian dwarfs are great milkers but not good for meat. You want Pygmies if you want meat
>>2403713
Where do you live? Is it hard? Would it be really hard for a clueless city boy to go raise goats somewhere?
hey, can someone please identify these bird eggs for me, they're in the SF bay area.
OP here, better pic
>>2403667
How big are they? Where did you find them?
>>2403675
in a bush they're like .8 inches long
Hey /an/, I've got a 2 year old indoor cat and I'll be rooming with a guy next year who's getting a guinea pig. Understandably, he's worried my cat will bully/kill/eat his guinea pig. It should stay in its cage unless supervised as I understand it but is there anything I should try/be aware of to minimize the risk of my cat harming it? My cat is a huge pussy that is spooked easily but seeing as he's been the only animal in the apartment the 2 years I've had him idk how he'd interact with other animals let alone rodents.
Bump
>>2403659
First off he should get two guinea pigs.
Second, make sure the cage has a top that the cat can't open. If your cat paws between the bars, you may have to take some smaller wire to tie around the outside to prevent it. In my experience cats don't mess with cavies because they are slow. When the cavies have outside time, keep the cat somewhere else unless you are supervising.
>>2404522
Why should he get two? Idk anything about guinea pigs/cavies (?)
why do you hate cats
>>2403638
Marking. Spraying. Bitching out after years of feeding and friendship.
I don't. I'm more of a dog person but I adore cats too. I love all things of fur, fin, and scale.
Birds are shit though. Fuck birds and fuck bird owners.
>watch any animal video
>dog shit ukulele or guitar racket starts playing.
LITERALLY every fucking video.
WHY?
>>2403575
Youtube has gone full retard.
Because ukuleles are laid back and kinda goofy and just fun. Kinda like animals in general.
>>2403575
Take your racist frog out of here.
So I'm house sitting for my sister. She has 2 dogs. One full boxer and one boxer Australian Shepard mix.
The mix we lall highly suspect is legitimately autistic.
Lately, she's been getting into shit she's not supposed to and eating it.
The cat's litter box.
Cat food cans out of the trash.
Kind bars stolen the counter. (nothing Toxic)
And last night while I was sleeping- a baggie of peanut butter chocolate cups. (pic related)
She's about 50 pounds or so and the bag was already half eaten, so she's eaten probably less than an ounce of milk chocolate.
Its's too early for the vet's office to open, and I don't know what I should do in the mean time, or even if a vet is necessary.
TL;DR Sister's retarded dog stole chocolate off a counter over night and ate it- What do??
>>2403431
>help my dog eats stuff that I leave out for him to take
Worst 3 days in this board's history. Fucking baby birds and cats doing cat shit every 15 minutes.
>>2403439
OP Here- As a seagull all I can say is- GOD your board is boring.
>>2403446
We know friend. But it's nicer than other places.
What fungus/bacteria it could be? Used coffee, after maybe few months
>>2403417
White mold, extremely common on coffee/grounds. No, that's not a scientific name but it's mold and it's white which is accurate enough for me.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mucor
tl;dr nasty shit, breathing spores may weaken your immune system just enough to catch regular cold or expensive and nasty bronchitis, too bad it's a no school season
Recently, my cat started walking with a limp. I checked her feet and found a small blister on one of her toes. Should I be concerned or is this nothing to worry about?
Take her to the vet you idiot.
>>2403392
why?
looks deep enough to be alarmed
in humans if it gets to bones it's sepsis and depending on a bunch of things a really fast death but cats could be another story
