    My Baby must go

    Hi Rick, I completely understand that. There are many out there who are in the same boat. And there are many unscrupulous programmers and developers out there who will provide little or nothing for larger dollars, then say if you want X the cost will be Y. This is aside from the problem of...

    Whoah! I've got H1N1

    Tamiflu doesn't stop the fever, it just prevents the virus from attaching itself to healthy cells and tricking them into producing more virus cells (along with what jameslongo said). Your fever is your body reacting to the invading virus. Basically your body raises its temperature to make the...

    Orchid molt problem!

    Ok, she is readily taking the ant jelly on a Q-tip, and the occasional fruit fly squished in it. She slurps the ant jelly up like a little piggy, and it is full of nutrients so I am hoping this will get her through to her next molt. Upon closer inspection it appears her tarsus/claw on her left...

    Orchid molt problem!

    Ok, I think I may have figured out a feeding process that she'll actually take. As she is drinking water from the foam, I took a Q-tip, soaked it in water on one end. I then proceeded to squish fruit flies with the wet end of the Q-tip until 3 or 4 fruit flies were stuck to the wet end of the...

    Orchid molt problem!

    Ok, so one of my L2 orchids was molting and it looks like somehow it got its raptorial legs tangled up in the old skin or something and fell. I was able to hang it from tweezers and it finally worked its way loose. Unfortunately it looks like it has damaged raptorial legs, one appears to have a...
