From what I heard they are a more of a look and not touch type of pet. Not just because it's painful to get stung or have one of the little sh*ts snag you with its claw and then sting the sh*t out of you, but they are easily stressed out and can die easily

Also if being well housed...they need a place to hide.

 

And once they got that...they will be at that place all the time except at night.

one killed and ate the other, then some how died itself.

 

My robo hamsters engaged in cannibalism.

The sickly one (Hades) passed away overnight and the next morning when I went to feed them, his brother (Leeroy) had eaten one of his feet. I almost threw up..

 

Broke my heart but apparently hamsters do it to avoid disease, he was just trying to clean up the body of his brother so his habitat wouldn't get 'dirty'.

 

Still, it's horrifying to know your pet has eaten another.

That's pretty disturbing. I mean it's one thing for a couple of land crabs to kill and eat each other. Hamsters are cute and cuddly, to see one chowing down on the other is upsetting. Please tell me you yelled "Leeroy Jenkins NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

 

I learned something new about hamsters,thank you.

Chickens also eat each other, I got two hens with about 20 chicks, one of the hens (younger one) attacked a chick belonging to the other hen and her chicks were pecking its corpse, we let the hen go in a field to fend for herself, I assume she got eaten by a badger or a fox because she was clueless when we left her, also chickens get addicted to eating own eggs.

I'm actually really ashamed to admit that Leeroy Jenkins never crossed my mind at the time, opportunities were missed. Many opportunities.

Saying i thought having a scorpion as pet would be easy...

The thing got mites i think...though they stay white they are all over the scorions mouth...meaning i cant just go and buy a bottle of alcohol and rub it over those things since this would kill the scorpion itself...

Well...time to consider getting mite eating mite...ugh..

Those mites are harmless. They're actually symbiotic, living on food debris and basically "cleaning" your scorpion in the process. My giant millipede had them. If they're really bugging you, you can reduce their numbers by keeping the tank clean and letting it dry out for short periods. Most of them will die off that way.

Chickens are f*cking hardcore. Used to think it was funny seeing them eat KFC and thinking they were pretty brutal but then you see one of the c*nts get just a tiny wound with bugger all blood coming out of it and then the rest of the flock just starts laying into it and start pecking and hacking into it hardcore and realise they are full on cannibalistic bastards. They were some scary looking chickens as well - my housemate/land lord at the time had fed them up on those grower pellets packed full of steroids their whole live rather than just for the few months until they start laying. Those f*ckers came almost up to your waist and were all lean and muscular looking and coloured like Dobermans with black bodies and tan heads. Edited by Jolly Swagman

PSA: Smoking only looks super cool, don't really do it.


Yeah, I know it. That's the plan, Stan (er, Seth)

Thursday is my last day (hopefully) quitting these stupid ass cancer sticks lol

 

If you can stay away for a week or two, you'll be surprised at how nasty the smell is on clothing and in cars or houses. I'll have a cig now and then, maybe 2-3 per month because I still really like tobacco. It's great for the first few drags but about halfway through, it starts to taste like ass and I can still smell it on my hands and clothes for hours after. I can also smell a smoker ten feet away because of that stale tar and smoke on their clothes. I feel bad for putting my nonsmoking friends though that for so long.

Yeah, it's pretty gross. That tar sticks to everything. I had some of my old gaming consoles stored in sealed containers. A few months after quitting smoking, I decided to dig out the Dreamcast one day and found that everything absolutely reeked and felt sticky from the tar reacting with the plastic over time. I'm not trying to sound like an anti-smoking fascist but it's pretty horrifying to think I subjected my lungs to that for so long.

Just saved me an internet order for special mite eating mites and probably 2 weeks worrying about it since my pc is in for repair.(edit: thus order would not be for anytime soon.)

 

Should have posted here earlier...could have saved myself a sting and my scorpion a load of stress.

Welcome to the experiment!

Strongly petitioned for something like this years ago but was routinely cockblocked. Glad to see it become a reality.

Emperors are the most docile scorpions and almost never use their stingers for defense. Mine would use it for support sometimes if it felt it wasn't on stable ground while being handled. I did feel the stinger a few times but it never broke the skin. Just be gentle and make sure it always feels supported when being held. Also. avoid sudden drafts and don reach directly down into the cage when picking it up. They can get spooked by that becausae it mimics a predator swooping in. Always scoop them up from the side.

Buff chickens are nothing compared to Australia's scariest bird. You might think I'm talking about cassowaries (those six feet tall things that look like emus but with colour and they rip your guts out in one slash in Far Cry 3 & also in real life) but you'd be wrong. Australia's most dangerous bird is this little innocent looking f*cker here, the Australian Magpie:

 

 

8C65A74D-8462-4146-BDA0-E0D50A0BBC59_zps

 

Australia has a reputation for dangerous creatures which I think is largely exaggerated. Sure we've got heaps of spiders and snakes and sh*t but we don't have grizzly bears. You can kill a snake pretty easy with a shovel and can squash a spider with your bare hands. When you hit a grizzly bear with your shovel it just gets more angry and then when you try to squash it with your bare hands it just looks at you like you're a weirdo before it gores you to death and doesn't even appreciate the bare hands pun because it's an animal.

 

The one threat you never hear people from overseas mentioning is the magpie and it's the one almost every Australian has encountered and suffered from. Every springtime the magpies breed and so what we call "swooping season" begins.

67733ADC-10B2-43B7-8293-EDD26AF64E48_zps

You'll be just walking down the road minding your own business and then these birds start dive bombing you. You just feel the wind and wings and sh*t clipping past you from nowhere and sh*t yourself. They don't hit you very often but when they do they f*ck your sh*t up - they have gashed open the back of my head and my cheek on different occasions and this c*nt at primary school full on got done in the eye. One of my earliest memories is seeing my brother lying under this tree crying next to his crashed bike and just getting the absolute sh*t swooped out of him with my mum on the other side of the road shouting at him to run for it.

It's bizzare dude, for about three months everyone just accepts if you go past certain trees you're gonna get attacked by birds. They are especially bad if you're riding a push bike and there are all these theories on how you can stop them attacking like drawing eyes on the back of your helmet or sticking stuff to it to scare them off. You seen fully grown men riding to work on with tree branches and cable ties sticking out of their helmets and it's all completely normal and no-one bats an eyelid

Well that's the plan. I've tried the patches, tried vaping, nothing seemed to work after three or so days. But I'm gonna try again.

That was a very enjoyable read. I'm definitely a fan of the manly helmets put to use.

 

Also, Australian magpies are far more majestic looking than ours. I can't say I've ever seen a magpie do anything that fierce and violent (especially to a human) but as a child I saw a group of five magpies rip apart a sparrow on a rooftop on my way to school :/

 

I mean, I'm fine with a magpie beating the sh*t out of human but leave the sparrows alone.

When I went to America on the first day there I went to the Santa Monica pier but it wasn't like in GTA cause there were these really big seagulls there and one of them was eating a normal sized seagull and I remember thinking to myself "wow man, America is really hardcore. Even the bird life has to live to gull eat gull existence". I took a photo of it and it was the first one I took on my holiday.

I do have the pic still but don't have an SD slot here to upload. Here's an extremely poor quality shot taken of the display screen of the camera

I'll post it when I can get upload from the SD/ find the camera cable.
