Yikes. OP, look up 'bearded dragon care sheet' and read a few. Correct the things that are wrong about your tank.
>>2461638
>Aspen chips
No. Not for bearded dragons. Use paper towel, ceramic/slate tiles, or those exo terra desert mats.
>heat pad and lamp
No heat pad. 1 basking light and 1 UVB light.

Oh shit. Please tell me you don't have multiple in one tank.

These are just larvae embedded in your skin. Don't worry, once they have finished their metamorphosis they'll come flying out.
>>
>>2461597
I remember when this happened to me. It hurt like a bitch because half of dont even come out they just sting again you while inside your skin and you have to dig them out later
Seriously though it might be an alergic reaction go see a doctor
>>
>>2461635
it was weird because it didn't hurt. it was only a very light stinging sensation but i'll try to see a doctor or something.

Adding anything that will stay in the water column will raise the TDS. Compare the TDS of your aquarium and tap water.

I've been looking into these as a livestock guardian and I could have sworn more than one anon has posted about their anatolians before. There was also that one Turk that liked to spam them.
Not dozens, but we have a handful that at least like a single uncommon breed.

Yuropean here, I remember, especially in my childhood, these bugs used to be everywhere, especially near water sources, but I realized I haven't seen one in years.
Am I the only one who noticed this?

They like certain trees and will be more around when you had non-harsh winter.
and they amass only a day to a week so you could just have missed them

Hey /an/ I was wondering if anyone on here is allergic or knows if anyone who has allergies to dogs. More particularly Labrador retrievers, as my boyfriend breaks out in a rash whenever my chocolate lab touches or licks him. However, when he is with other dogs such as his sister's Jack Russell or his friend's rescue dogs he does not itch or break out.
So I was wondering if it's possible he may be allergic to my lab's oily coat? I've bathed my dog to see if it was because of dirt or something but he still gets itchy and breaks out into little rashes whever he gets touched.
He loves my dog and still plays, wrestles, and lets him lick him, but he gets pretty uncomfortable around him. Does anyone have any experience with this or what could be causing his reaction?

One dogs dander isnt the other. He is most likely allergic to the dead skin cells and different dogs can have different levels of allergen in them.
Saliva can be part of it too.
He could get antihistamines but i dont know to what extend it may work.
Just clean and vacuum a shitload so he doesnt get sore from being in contact with clothing/furiture your dog has been.
Ps
Doesnt depend on breed but the specific dog

That sounds reasonable, as my dog's skin does run a little dry and can flake.
i guess it's just an unhappy circumstance that of all the dogs he could be allergic to, it had to be mine. I'll look into antihistamines too, I was really hoping his reactions would go away as he got used to the dog I guess but it's been over a year and he still breaks out.
I appreciate the response!

It's not that unusual to be allergic to chocolate.

What animal do you think you were in your past life, /an/?
Pic related. I honestly don't even like wolves. I'm as impartial to them as I am to humans, which I can't say for any other animal.

I'm writing a story using an allegory of circus animals to portray humans. Can I please get some trivia and shit so that the story'd look halfway true to those that actually know about stuff like this?
I imagine the story takes place maybe in the 1940s or 50s or something.
I'll give some questions to give a direction to the thread, but really feel free to just post anything; any stories or factoids or whatever. Maybe even videos and documentaries.
>were the animals kept in cages during offtime?
>what kinds of animals have been used in circuses?
>how big have been the biggest circuses?
>what are the stuff animals have performed over time?
>were they bred in captivity or were some straight from nature and trained?
>how often did accidents involving mauling or whatever happen?
>have there been any famous accidents in circuses?
>how did the circus animals differ from their wild counterparts? like did they suffer from some specific diseases, conditions and such? stereotypy is one I'll definitely make use of
etc
thanks

Your pets can also suffer permanent eye damage during today's solar eclipse. It's ideal to get them inside if possible, away from direct sight.

Just give them some of those eclipse glasses. Duct tape won't pull out fur as long as you don't stick it on too tight.
