Too much salt can sometimes end up hurting instead of helping. I only add a small amount of salt during water changes. what kind of salt? strangely that matters. My mollies lasted forever. with the minimal amount of salt.
I have kept several together before that were slightly smaller and they wanted nothing to do with each other. they were peaceful. Unfortunately I had one of those stupid frogs you buy at the mall. and it ate one of them. it actually ate a lot. He got my shrimp......my favorite ghost shrimp. I...
A new addition! Buckbeak (after a very long bratty broody session) has hatched out her first chick. A future house chicken! Today around 3 pm exactly 21 days after she laid the egg. We haven't needed to intervene with her and her chick yet and the little one has stayed under her chirping away...
We have filed down Rover and Einstein's beaks. Rover almost enjoys it. Einstein is not so easy, his crook neck makes it tough. You definitely want two people, one to pin their wings to their body hold them, and calm them down. the other files away! I say do it because a lot can go wrong if you...
For it to look EXACTLY like that it will most likely be tough. but i know at a hardware store ( i'm not sure if there is Home Depot where you're from but i assume there everywhere. at least i imagine Home depot being everywhere. i never thought much about it.) you can buy almost everything. and...
Its starts with one, then you get her a friend, then you look around and realize you're surrounded. look left, a hen. right, a hen, up, down, spin around and stand on your head, what do you see, a hen! But seriously best of luck to you. and Please please please post some pictures when (and if)...

me- "earth to buckbeak. this is water.....you know the stuff you need to live...you should drink some. No? how about a little food? still No? fine. sit there and well, continue sitting there."
My sister-...
Hey everybody, just wanted to give a quick update from the Gawley ranch, (still wishing i could call it a ranch).
If anyones been following my aunts thread they know that Buckbeak has gone broody. full blown comatose broody. I'm talking WILL NOT MOVE FOR ANYTHING broody. it's actually kinda...
I certainly wont be eating him, I am sure i will figure something to do with him. it isn't super "Right Now" My 30 galleon bowed can hold him for a while longer. when the time does come I will find him a home, in the meantime I will just do what I've been doing. Thanks for the info, if I didn't...
I have seen them get HUGE. Unfortunately, no aquarium. Sometimes pet stores will take them, but I have seen how they keep them, at least my tank is ALWAYS beautiful. He is a very well taken care of fish. He was so small and over a few years he has grown soo much. I really would love to see...
