Insomnia Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 According to iflscience, people are feeding their pet leeches with their own blood! The real vampire of all! I understand the use of leeches for medicinal purposes but anything other than that is just gross. Not to mention is a risk for infection https://www.iflscience.com/plants-and-animals/we-regret-to-inform-you-that-people-are-feeding-pet-leeches-their-own-blood/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleFester Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Honestly anything that involves blood transmission is just a big no no. Even when doing photography in the forest I have to make sure I have a nice coat of bug repellent on me. I do not want Lyme disease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trappernicus Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 I tend to like exotic pets. As well as normal ones. I current have 8 chickens, 1 rooster, 2 ducks, 1 rabbit, 1 cat, 3 wild mice and 2 lizards. So the idea of adding to this some leeches sounds good to me. I’ll have to consider what habitat would work best for them. 🦊 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
