I'm getting a Siberian Husky later this year and I get to choose if I want a male or female.
I like the idea of getting a female one because I've never raised one myself, all my dogs have been male so I have no idea what are the downsides of each one. Also I'm in a new country and I haven't had a dog in about 4 years.
Any comments and recommendations on this?

Female.
There's not really any benefit to getting a male.
Pretty much boils down to how you feel about doggy dick
So we got a cockatoo as a pet about a week ago. My dad thought it would be a good idea to bring it outside and sit on the hammock with my mom (to get the bird in on the Mother's Day action too). The bird flew away and hasn't come back. Mom hasn't stopped crying since.
Any tips on getting it back? Lol
when your dad ends up getting a new bird because he basically just freed that one
clip it's fucking wings
I don't know what he expected to happen.
You'd be lucky to find its body, let alone to actually get it back alive.
A kitten randomly showed up on my porch last night and both of her eyes are crusted and oozing on and off. She very sweet so I plan on taking care of her but she won't eat. Anyone hear have any remedies for her eyes or appetite her nose is also dripping like she has a cold. Pic related
I plan on taking her to the vet tomorrow since they are all closed on Sunday around here.
>>2118018
I have nothing for the eyes, but maybe get some kitten formula? It may not have been weaned properly and doesn't know cat food.
>>2118028
That was my guess too I'm going to the store today to get some. Hopefully when we go to the vet the eyes won't be too serious.
Anyone know what kind of animal could do this? Frisbee for reference.
>>2120131
burrowing animal
>>2120132
You think so???
>>2120131
It is either the entrance to a critter's tunnel OR it is where a critter was excavating for food. Skunks, for example, dig up wasps' nests underground and eat all the larvae and eggs. Hard to say which this is without more details. It kinda looks like claw marks in the now-dry mud. Does this area get watered by sprinklers?
What do you feed a horse to make it fart?
>>2119804
Horses will eat anything
Feed him beans & let him chug some beers if you want

>>2119804
Are you kidding? You can't PREVENT it from farting. They are methane factories. They fart all. the. time.
What animal has the most heinous poops?
Anything that eats a ton of fish. Penguins are fucking awful.
Also anteaters. Anteater shit is horrible.
cat
>>2119796
Humans.
Never get a pet human, even if it's the last thing you do.
Should I foster a cat or dog? Have plenty experience with both but my issue is that I live somewhere else for 5-6 months. I'm here until October, would it be worth it? Am I still helping even if no one actually adopts it by the time I have to leave? I could possibly take it with me but it would still be temporary and I'd be in another state, so I'm not sure if a rescue would be OK with that. I'd just feel bad if I had to just return it if I can't
Tl;dr convince me to foster or not.
I'd be interested in a senior animal if that helps.
>>2119487
What's wrong with it? It looks disgusting.
Dogs and some cats will bond so close and have separation anxieties. Cats will feel stressed going to new places often. I think neither is good idea unless you keep the dog and take it wherever you go, period.
Domesticated catsnakes will do great, they have no fear, they love you and want to eat your toes. But you better not abandon/sell them when you move, they are perfect ok with moving and new environments.

I'm trying to get to sleep but this spider keeps bothering me.
I felt it crawling over my shoulder and onto my face so I pushed it off, took the pic related then shooed it away. I just felt it on my back as well.
Why is this spider being a dick?
>>2119448
Why would you not just kill it?
Also I feel you, I've been getting a new spider bite every day I sleep in shorts
>>2119456
I'd feel a bit bad for killing it deliberately unless it bites me, which it hasn't done yet. If it does bite me I will not care if I kill it, same if I accidentally squish it during the night.
I'm vaguely curious as to what it is, my dad mentioned there being false widows in the back garden once but it doesn't seem to have the right markings on it.
>>2119462
it's a false widow.
markings vary.
What.
Is this normal for horses?
As awful as it may sound, it's been standard practice since pretty much forever.
Yep. Horses are screwed if they break a leg because there usually isn't any feasable way to keep them on 3 legs long enough for it to heal without fucking them up everywhere else.
Horses can't just lay in bed and wait for their legs to heal. Their organs can't support their body's weight so if they lay down too long they will die. Depending on the type of break, there is a way to treat it but it can be stupid expensive and it might not work. The animal may be forever lame, leading to a lesser quality of life. It is often better and more humane to put them down

Hi all,
Has anyone tried befriending the local crows? I've heard they are brilliant by animal standards.
>>2118350
Yes, they are brilliant. All you have to do is feed them chopped up hot dogs and grated carrots and such.
But you should check your local wildlife laws. Depending on where you are feeding wild animals could get you fined. The laws are there to protect the more endangered animals from accidentally being poisoned by idiots who think it's cute to feed "bambi".
My attempts at friendship ended up with me being attacked multiple times.
>>2118401
Clearly you did something wrong.
Or maybe the people where you live are just generic assholes to birds enough that the smarter ones have simply associated humans in general as a threat and no longer bother to distinguish between individuals.
Yes, crows are smart enough to recognize and differentiate between humans.
