Same! Nutty is hilarious. Especially the Chinese food part.





Idk. The only beans I’ve ever cooked are canned

We used to do the like bush’s baked beans and hotdogs, black beans (canned) with tacos/fajitas/burritos (Mexican food basically) or sometimes beans and rice, and we used to make chili a lot with beans, and that’s the extent of my bean experience tbh.

The McDoodoo killed me.

I’ve never actually cooked any.

We, us cooker people, can tell.

Bob is still growing. I don't even know if he's male or female. He had half a tail when we adopted him and now it's crooked in an L shape.

How old is she?

I'm going to try feeding roaches the small ones soon. The little one doesn't like Bob's freeze dried soldierworms. He has been eating them, but not like he enjoys it.

She's a rescue so we can't know for sure, but estimated about 2 and a half years old.
We only feed live food so can't help you there! We are planning to start a dubia roach colony soon.

Reptiles mostly. Maybe guinea pigs or ferrets. He knows I'm mainly about reptiles. I want an iguana.

Iguanas!

Go to Florida during a cold snap. They literally are falling out of the trees and are easier to catch while it is cold. Big suckers too! We played spot the iguana while driving through the Keys. Fun game. Males displaying and strutting their stuff. Kinda weird to see them all over.

this is definitely a bad thing, right?

Oh wait! I forgot refried beans on that list. Had those too.

The extent of my bean cooking has been heating up canned beans.

How do they not die from not eating while they sleep forever?

Their metabolism slows down to nothing. A healthy reptile shouldn't lose weight while they're brumating. You're not supposed to wake them up to eat because the undigested food can rot in their stomach.
If they're sick when winter starts, they often die in their sleep.

Change, you must! Beans are high protein, low calorie and healthy. Due to the fiber content, will satiate you and this leads to less hunger for longer. A good thing. The processed food shoot through you, giving you lots of calories and no feeling of fullness.

I can't stand cockroaches, they're maybe the only animal that will make me scream. But dubias are more like roly poly's than cockroaches. Really.
They're silent, can't even climb, and they have zero smell.
If I was a bug gal I would find them cute.. but I'm not a bug gal.

BIL lived in an apartment. All apartments have roaches. He got a hog nosed snake and turned it loose for roach control. Ergo, instant roach control.

I propose if the roaches get loose, turn a snake loose. Or a lizard. Better yet, HOUSE CHICKENS!
