Works with my small breeds.

It's probably fine, but because there's a relatively thin cord rolled up, you should be wary about wear, because that could cause it to snap more easily

No. They are retarded. They give you zero control over your dog. And if you ever try to grab the cable in a panic, you can fuck the shit out of your hand.

They are trash don't use them

Anacondas and other large pythons are seriously fucking cool. They don't unhinge their jaws like some small snakes, their jaws open at TWO SETS OF JOINTS. They also have two rows of teeth in the roof of their mouth that can "walk" along a carcass so that the snake can swallow it.

Close up of roots

>>2181039
>>2181040
2 things:

1: Was it in soil before you put it in water? Because that looks like vermiculite particles or something like that

2: Epipremnum aureum produces aerial roots that look like corky knobs when they first start out. This looks like those roots (although a bit weirdly), just underwater.

I am doing the same thing with pothos, but unlike yours I cannot notice any new root in the twigs, they have been in the jar for more than 3 weeks now, some twig died but some other are still green.

mice suck.

you shouldn't be keeping them if you're going to treat them that way.

anyways though definitely sounds like you should return the mouse you don't like. rats are the best rodents, tho.

>>2181036
Hey. I tried my fucking HARDEST to give them the life they deserve. Fresh is just spoiled.

I will get rats, in the future, At the time I got mice, I was on a low budget. Now I have a pretty big 40b tank.

Could rats fit in there?

>>2181042
Yes, cages are better because of airflow but you could house 2 rat's comfortably. Rat's like mice though need to be picked up for at least 30 minutes a day to get used to you. Rat's are much more intelligent and will learn your pretty cool and will snuggle and hang with you. Mice aren't that smart but if you hold and socialize them enough they should stop acting like shit heads, unless they're breeding of course.

They have fucking problems with everything
They tried to classify parts of certain firearms as fucking firearms themselves

Same thing we have against everything fun in this liberal shithole of a state

>smelly rats

Looks like some kinda assassin bug

reduviidae is a big family tho should make sure

damsel bug
>>2180953
why is everything an assassin bug with you people. shut the fuck up

My cousin has one.

You need to make sure that you get one from a good breeder, not some yahoo on Craigslist. Otherwise you will end up with a 200+ lb monster in your house.
Pigs are clean and easy to house train. They learn to do tricks and come when called. They are dog-level smart and affectionate.
MAKE SURE YOU DONT OVERFEED THEM! that is very detrimental to their health, and they get fat easily.
The best home for a pig includes a fenced yard s/he can graze in all day (yes they eat a lot of grass, yes they can get fat from that); and a nice place to snuggle with his/her family in the house at the end of the day.

They need as much attention, affection and training as a dog, so keep that in mind.

>>2180857
so if i leave them in the fenced in yard while im at work, do you think they would be ok? then they could hang out with me in the house
when i get home.

>>2180862
People might try and steal it so I'd make sure it's secured (pigs can tear through a lot of things and they are strong) and out of sight from the road.

They also dont like to be picked up. They also do what they want, when the want. They are very smart and yeah can learn tricks but if they don't want to listen(which is often) then they won't. This is why you really, really have to make sure they don't get bored because even the smallest of pigs can be monsters. Pigs are naturally foragers too so yeah they will easily destroy doors, carpets and cabinets. You didn't specify 'micro pigs' which are 99% a scam but even pot bellies easily get 200lbs.

I've personally known two people who had pigs through the years and they phased them out. They can be good pets but they are really more 'outside' ones and seem much happier spending most of their time outdoors. In general if they are appealing to you just because it's a 'unique' pet that is commonly boasted as basically being a dog, just get a dog. Also if you want multiple ones be prepared for them to give even less of shit about you.

pixelated scootcher

I see it's brown. Would you say it's somewhat reclusive?

>>2180810
They use compression artifacts as camouflage.

>>2180810
It lives underneath my shed I think. I rarely see it. I've only seen it a few times.

Make me

"he a good boy. he dindu nuffin. he was never aggressive before this."
t. every pit owner ever

They are awesome dogs if you have the time and dedication for them. But they require so much exercise and time that the dog becomes your life. Maybe when I am old and retired I'll get one!

My favorite doggos are pitbulls (unfortunately):
>Food motivated so easy to train
>Well suited to many different kinds of dog sports
>Fifty million of them at shelters
>Good energy level
>Retard amounts of endurance so they can go forever outside on adventures
>Total snuggle bugs and chill as fuck once you get indoors
>Generally their favorite thing in the world is to just be with you
>Coat is short and really easy to maintain but still super soft
>Super cute and total goofballs (until they maul an 8 year old)
>Generally mutts so they are really healthy

They're good boys who dindu nuffin

>>2180526
Golden Retrievers exist, though.

>>2180526
In the sense that private jets are the best mode of transportation.

The dog can avoid confrontation at any point in time by walking away, your porcupine won't catch it ever. I don't see how a porcupine could attack a dog, unless it's been sleeping or something.
The only point their owners could make is "muh doggo ws only playing but evil purrcupine tried make it kill", which would be about the same line of defense as someone who tried to rob you by approaching you with a knife and later said he was only kidding, after you shot his leg.

Oh man I want a pet porcupine now, would go to dog park everyday.

Just make sure you have a license for it and other people really can't do shit.

It's along the lines of someone trying to say their dog was 'attacked' by a cat when it tried to play. It just isn't going to hold up in court seeing as the porcupine is a prey animal.
