hi nephew

Hey those are them pesty cunts what we've been killing out on me ranch
Could you guys red pill me on Guinea pigs vs Rabbits?
I'm torn between the two for my first pet and can't decide.
i have had both at the same time in the same cage
rabbit is calmer, quieter and will sit with you longer
guinea pig is similar but squeals and will piss on you
also the guinea pig still had his balls and would sleep on top of the rabbit in what i can only assume was an attempt to copulate even though both were male
the guinea pig died four years ago and the rabbit (dwarf) is almost a decade old
guinea pigs in general bite more
if you get both feed them guinea pig food because it has vitamin c which guinea pigs need and rabbits enjoy it more than rabbit food
guinea pigs are funnier
>>2247501
Very very insightful, thank you!
>Guinea pig will piss on you
Why would rabbits not do the same?
>>2247508
they do but not as often
i'm assuming they panic less easily or have a larger bladder
Hey /an/
Was walking to work and passed by a bumblebee in distress, kept falling over, flapping its wings but couldn't take off. Moved her off the road and hoped maybe it'd recover.
Walked back from work and it was still there having issues. Took her back with me.
I have it next to me on a plate with some sugar water and heat and it seems to still be moving. I'm guessing since the weather is getting colder it's the end of the line for the worker bees.
The question is, if you were a dying bumblebee worker, what would you want aside from sugar water and heat. There aren't any flowers still blooming around here.
No picture, I'm a poorfag with no money.
Try to give her some juice, and find some plants, indoor flowers to put her there.
Bees don't have feelings

So who was in the right here?
I dont care
ur dumb
The owners of course. They should have taught the dog not to jump up on people, but to beat a dog, no matter what breed, for something so trivial as jumping on you is ridiculous.

Google is your friend.
Feel free to ask questions but know that there are a lot of resources out there that could answer your question a lot faster and accurately than /an/.
Make sure to include these things in your post before asking because we can't help you if we don't have the full picture:
-tank size
-parameters
-any and all inhabitants + how long you've had them

My tap water comes out a 8ph. What fish can handle this? I don't like African cucklids
Is the how to cycle your tank pastebin ever going to be fixed?
>>2246858
don't expect this OP to do anything about it
he replied to me with a rude post.
My cat up and fucked off four days ago and he hasn't returned.
I am very concerned because it's been raining and i think he might die.
How do i get him to come home?
it's most likely ded.
that's what you get for having an outdoor cat.
>>2246704
Nooo but he isn't an outdoor cat he just escaped
hold out a little hope. I've had cats run off for a week at a time, probably several times
you always think they're dead but they just come back when they're tired and hungry.
although if it was a sheltered indoor cat it might be too stupid
>>2246704
nigger you live on this forum and you're always talking shit about cats, and your garden is unkempt, kys.
Discuss the Rottveiler
Violent and aggressive dogs only outdone by shitbulls. Toss them in the oven along with the shitbulls imo
>>2246289
Rottweilers can be great working and family dogs. Why do you feel this way?
>>2246291
Because he's learned that by spewing bullshit, he'll gain attention. Ignore him until he learns how to behave.
Rotts are cute. We had one that was a Rottweiler/bloodhound mix. Smart as fuck and very playful.
So I just got a dog from my neighbor, really cool pup thats about 2 years old. I knew it since it was little and it had always been brown.
About a week ago my neighbor informed me he would be moving out of state and couldn't take the dog with him. Naturally I took him as my own since he was always a joy when I saw him.
For some reason his brown fur turned grey except for his paws and face starting this year. My neighbor blamed this on him eating too little but he was never able to get a real reason why.
Does anyone know why his fur would make such a dramatic change?
Pic related: shitty camera quality courtesy of my phone.
just like with humans, some dog's hair changes color as they age. diet could also be a factor, if they're not getting enough nutrients. have you talked to a vet about this?
Does it have Lhasa apso in it by any chance? My grandmother has one and when it was a puppy it was dark brown, like an ewok. As she got older, but rather quickly her fur turned a creamy white color, the same coloration her parents have. Completely different looking dog by the time she was 2 years old. Kind of how kids hair goes from blonde to darker brown as they age I figured. Might be normal for that dog, they don't always stay the same color. My grandmas dog looks completely different color wise than she did as a puppy.
>>2246358
So I did end up taking him to a vet to be sure. The vet said the same thing, likely he's not eating enough. Turns out he's a fussy eater, he'll run off when I set the food on his plate and my nephew resorts to hand feeding him sometimes.
I'll get her to stop doing that. Maybe he'll stop being such a baby
Pic related: An older picture his (former) owner sent me.
Hey /an/, can you help me identify what kinda insects these things are?
>>2245657
By the look of the moss and the small leave I guess this was taken in Nepal. Did you see them moves ? How many legs do they have ? Why did you make a new thread for this ?
>>2245657
Planthopper nymphs. Getting to the exact species will be nearly impossible
>>2245711
>Moss and trees only exist in Nepal.
ITT: Post your unpopular or popular or even controversial opinions you have about pets.
I like the look of cropped ears, I think it looks nice on the majority of breeds it's done on. Get fucked Yuros.
I do dislike docked tails though, it looks like shit.
I like turtles.
Cats and dogs are trash.
>>2245282
I like the look of cropped ears, too. But I wouldn't get them done.
Post your pets! Also when will it get better my dog is so hyped and eats everything he sees
This is my pitbull, Brutus.
She likes to sit on the deck and watch people and other dogs walking by

here is one my crested geckos. his name is Dr. Jacobson. He will be 4 years old in January.
>missed the first and last reptile expo in my area
>No plant and garden exhibition that touches anywhere near where I live
>Taxidermy con has been dead for many years
I got shafted on that end.Can't find a single thing within a 4 hour drive of me. I don't imagine they'd be as popular as the anime and video game ones, but I'd still think they'd be pretty interesting. I'm not a fan of large crowds anyway.
Anyone ever go to an /an/ related convention or exhibition? Any you want to go to but haven't yet?
I've always wanted to go to a pet expo but the local ones sound lame. Just local pet stores shilling what they have had for years. Literally they only advertise pet food, grooming tools, and training.
My dream is to attend Tinley Park expo some day. So fucking sick of all 3-4 of my local herp expos stacked to the rafters with meme ball pythons and garbage like hand made dish towels with cresties sewn onto them. There's seriously a table for Bath Fitters or like Gutter Guards at my local shows every single time, that's how lame it is.
Went to the Animal Expo in Ventura County like 2 years ago..
Mainly loitered in their reptile area because everything else was basically merchandise from pet stores.
Saw some cool stuff but mostly BPs and tarantulas and centipedes/millipedes.

I just watched pic related, I'm from a landlocked country, so I have no idea how realistic was this movie.
What are the chances you'll be bitten by a shark if you swim in the ocean?
Do people really just go surfing without fearing for their lives?
How dangerous is it to enter the shallow waters?
What are some measures you guys take to keep yourselves safe in the ocean?
>>2244251
you're more likely to win the lottery than be bitten by a shark.
>>2244251
>exact stats
dunno
I freedive all the time and have never been bitten by a shark. I've seen plenty of them. I have, however, never swam with great whites and it isn't high on my list of things to do.
Most injuries I sustain are from urchins. Also, barracuda have a bad reputation for no good reason.
>>2244254
False.
