MY GERBIL ESCAPED! + EXOTIQUE MIXTURE | Sunday STUFFandTHINGS | 09/04/2022

[@dubliners0999]

WATCH FOR BROKEN LIMBS: So glad you caught Conan. I've had 2 gerbils "escape" into my living room and it's just like this. For anyone reading this, always check for broken legs when a gerbil has leapt even from a short distance. I've had one gerbil break a front leg with a fall from 24"; I had another break a front leg with a fall from 30"--this is after having more than a dozen gerbils over the last decade or so. Just watch for limping, holding one arm or hand up, not using one leg, using one leg as a "flipper" rather than from the front, etc. Gerbils can break a limb so easily and any good pocket pet vet will do a x-ray and prescribe Metacam for pain, Baytril for possible infection, and a "hospital cage" with nothing to crawl on if the break has NOT gone through the skin.

I love that you try to pronounce words from languages that are not your mother tongue. I'm European and I'm used to hearing other languages and seeing you give your best is just really nice :)

[@stuffandthingsyoutube]

I often fail horribly, but I try!

[@LedgerAndLace]

"Clearing-the-throat sounds." Ha! Glad you found your gerbil!

[@stuffandthingsyoutube]

Me too!

Conan is such a character. He was probably looking for some delicious millet.

Exotique and Our Best Blend are both fantastic.

[@chadcurtis8731]

Yes, Exotique!! I hope you really love it, I think you will as I certainly do. I believe the Our Best Blend still had Syrian Latakia, but I am not sure if Exotique did still, it’s possible, it was right at the end of the Syrian Latakia blends. I am looking forward to your review Bradley. Sorry my package inventory list wasn’t better, I missed the first thing you tried to look up haha, I was hurrying to get the list together and get your package shipped before work. I am enjoying the Elden ring series, I am only on episode 13, it’s frustrating to me because my only experience is watching your dark souls series and seikero, you move through the inventory with ease, I have a lot to learn haha. I am only level 13 or something. Also, sorry about Russell Wilson, but we are excited in Denver to see how things go with him. Cheers.

[@stuffandthingsyoutube]

It was SO generous! Thank you so much!

[@jorgwesterhoff9393]

The clearing the throat sound is what we Dutch use as a G. That's why my name is such a difficult name for most other languages.

[@Cheeseybacun]

The train is back! I missed it.

Europeans may not eat peautnut butter sandwiches but most sure like their Rees's PB cups.

[@animula6908]

I had a hamster in high school and I remember reading that as burrowers they have no instinctive fear of falling. Weird about the dream lol

[@stuffandthingsyoutube]

Interesting! They won't jump out of my hands when I'm holding them, but maybe the cage seemed a bit lower.

[@mpfeldma]

Here in Indiana, you can legally carry a sword if you want, although you’ll likely get strange looks. You can also carry a rifle, shotgun, or handgun (openly or concealed) without a license.

[@stuffandthingsyoutube]

"Open carry" is legal in Washington too, but I wouldn't advise it in Western Washington. You will definitely freak people out.

[@AssafHershko]

Just curious - did someone tell you to scatter feed them yet? Basically, sprinkling their food on the bedding instead of using a food bowl. It's more natural for them to forage for the food (instead of eating from a bowl), and helps to break their boredom. It will also help to avoid tension between them over access to the food bowl. So all in all a better alternative to a food bowl.

[@stuffandthingsyoutube]

I scatter feed sometimes!

[@rbenning242]

I’ve been rewatching some of your tobacco reviews over the last few days when for some reason I started wondering whatever happened to the gerbils. Thanks for the update

[@meghan9436]

Sorry to hear about your gerbil! That was exactly my thought too, that you wouldn’t find him again until he died somewhere and started to smell. Glad you found him safe and sound. My recent trips to Traveler’s Factory kind of relit the spark I had for Midori TN’s. I was getting caught up on some entries while listening.

[@stuffandthingsyoutube]

I was prepared for the worst, but luckily we found him!

[@Smoking_Hot_Scott]

Question for AskStuffandThings: Why not add various journal review videos to your routine resulting in higher channel views?

[@Kwansudru]

Go broncos!

[@salvatorecollura2692]

You probably get asked this a lot, but I’ll be in Bellingham this week to visit family and want to pick up some pipe tobacco while there. What would be the shop in town or close by with the best variety? Thanks for the channel! Big fan!

[@stuffandthingsyoutube]

I'm sorry to say that there isn't a single good brick and mortar left in Bellingham. :-(
