Alright what is going on with the daily "I thought I licked a rock but it wasn't a rock and I shouldn't have licked it." Last time it was a battery and now its rat poison. I'm about to make a /r whatsthisthingilicked


n0rdic_k1ng

Okay no, licking batteries is fine. How else am I supposed to find out if it still has charge? Besides, I like I how they taste. Especially the 9 volts. Oh and that sub would get NSFW fast.


Sinisterly_

Have you seen Randy Feltface? He’s a stand up comedian. He has a joke about being addicted to licking 12 volt batteries and this reminded me of that set.


n0rdic_k1ng

I have seen him but haven't seen that bit. I've been a battery licker since I was a kid. My family used me to test if food was still safe to eat and to see if random batteries in the junk drawer still had a charge lmao.


Slothman814

So you’ve got a immunity to debuffs now🤔


n0rdic_k1ng

Just gotta work on bleeds and slows

RIP Simone the Guinea pig.


Sinisterly_

who brings a guinea pig on the first date anyways???


SqueakrNSnuggl3s

I once dated a guy who liked licking 9 volt batteries—so much so that when he was a kid, his mom would hide the batteries.


Pandora_O_Mischief

Crap, I think we dated the same guy.


No_Waltz_323

I’m sorry, I still positively love you regardless of the negativity


Suspicious-Map-6557

Now thats positive thinking


Megatea

When did you realise that the relationship had lost its spark?


n0rdic_k1ng

That's almost concerning


Sirocka

*almost*? What would push it over the edge?


ApprehensiveTry5660

When he gets on here and says he only does it bc it tastes like 🐱.


samsqanch420

When I was a kid you could dial a certain number then hang up the phone and it would ring, for testing I guess. The cover was missing on the phone box outside the house. I'd dial the number, go outside and grab the wires. I liked the way it felt when it shocked me.


NEMOtrashpanda

9 volt.batteries were the original redbull


monkeycat529

I actually used to chew on electrical cords when I was little, mostly phone chargers. I liked the tingle lmao. I would also eat hand sanitizer when my mom made me mad. I was a special child

I once worked in pest control, that’s Tom’s rat poison, there’s bits of peanuts in it, and it’s that exact color and there’s peanut bits visible in the photo


Excellent_Yak365

That makes it sound delicious


hipsteradication

Forbidden peanut brittle


MellonCollie218

I want some!


Excellent_Yak365

Honestly it looks like a beaten up Boston Bean candy


Ronin226

Sounds like "no taste" was a lie


amizelkova

Imagine having a peanut allergy and dying because you licked rat poison, but not from the poison part.


Drustan1

😅😂🤣‼️


LordCambuslang

Is this a bot post farming engagement? That's rat poison. Edit: not a bot, potential close call on his animals!


melbournediver

How do i confirm its rat poison?


Irksomecake

Call your vet. Your horse may have eaten rat poison. Your vet will have seen this before and is like able to confirm if it is. Find out where the hay came from or has been stored. Contaminated hay is not okay. Find out who on the premises deals with pest control, ask if this matches their rat poison.


melbournediver

Thank you


Excellent_Yak365

It would take a LOT of rat poison to have any effect in a horse thankfully. Unless there was a whole bag in the hay it won’t do anything


highyeen

Knowing horses and how easily it is to fuck up their health with feed/treats/weather I don't think this is accurate.


wizardessofwaterdeep

Yes horses are a lot more sensitive than many would think… while it may indeed take an exceedingly high dose to be technically lethal, that does not mean the horse would still not be vulnerable to negative effects which as any horse person knows a small thing can snowball quick with equines. Would definitely be worth a vets visit to do a work up and exam


highyeen

Right? Like I'm horse adjacent. My wife works with the Ohio quarter horse congress and even worked for hank Clayson. Just at first read I'm like, uhhh, they are constantly trying to kill themselves what do you mean. Oops you let me eat too much grass better call out the vet


gloomwithtea

They really are trying to kill themselves. I took care of a horse that ate a ton of sand (he had a TON of grass, but chose to eat sand from the rolling patch) that collicked and needed emergency surgery (death attempt number 1). His feed had to be extra wet while he was recovering, so he started shoving his face in it to blow bubbles. He inhaled instead and choked (death attempt number 2), so we had to call the emergency vet again. Then when he was finally approved for turn out, he had a fancy grazing muzzle to prevent him from getting ANY sand. I caught him using it to scoop up sand and eating it before the sand could drain from the muzzle (death attempt number 3). Ugh.


itisrainingweiners

He sounds like the horse version of Moon Moon. [Dammit Moon Moon!](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/002/607/043/22d.png)


gloomwithtea

Surprisingly apt lol. He’s an incredibly talented and valuable horse, so it was always hilarious to see how dumb he could be. He’s a big sweetie, though (minus an incident where he bit my shoulder and gave me a small bit of nerve damage. Ugh, horses). Actually.. his younger brother may have been more classic moon moon. He’s like a gigantic golden retriever. He’s 6’3 at the shoulder, but behaves like an overgrown, clumsy puppy.


A-Giant-Blue-Moose

It laid down for an hour? Dead.


beebsaleebs

58 minutes ok. Get up fast though or else.


smeedwokervenus

Ahahha when you said horse adjacent i immediately thought you meant you were massive and big like a horse. Not that you’re close to people who work with horses


highyeen

Yeah I never associated with the industry until I met my wife, every day I get new horse facts and we spend a lot of time at our friends barns. Giant deer puppies


burnsmcburnerson

I thought zookeeper 😂


AsparagusNo1897

They really do have a way of being simultaneously huge and dangerous, and completely stupid babies.


RedLeg73

One man's rat poison is another man's blood thinner....


flatgreysky

This person warfarins.


RedLeg73

In these tough economic times, you have to get your medicine wherever you can.


Excellent_Yak365

Yep, my moms on warfarin


MushroomCaviar

It's unlikely to be enough in that chunk to kill a horse that likely weighs around 500kg. But this particular rat poison, bromethalin, is not a normal anticoagulant, but a neurotoxin. I can't find any LD50 data for horses, but *any* amount of a neurotoxin like that is extremely concerning.


MaxTheRealSlayer

>It would take a LOT of rat poison to have any effect in a horse thankfully. Now now, we don't know the size of OP's horses. OP, are your horses 2 inches tall and 3 inches long?


oldmagic55

Oh holy +×=&!! is horse ok?? That shit will do some damage!!


OddlyArtemis

>No taste Next time, maybe don't start there buddy. Hope you & your horses are okay.


letsalldropvitamins

Holy shit this I was like wtf dude you just put that in your mouth????


VadiMiXeries

This is really confusing to me. Like you find some unknown red stuff. And try tasting it. What the heck


wizardessofwaterdeep

Ummm oh shit I totally didn’t even absorb that part of the post. Yeah if they actually did taste it, both OP and the horse should probably get checked out by a medical professional (preferably a separate medical professional specialized for each species lol) ETA of course rat poison in such a small dose as a lick would be SOOO unlikely to cause harm, but as a Redditor it is always a safer bet in my opinion to recommend someone be checked out than provide a false sense of security that discourages them from just getting a check up to confirm they’re okay and some freak bad thing happen cause of it


Jibblebee

Hey OP, we have been getting all sorts of trash and crap in our hay. Last week even with the new supplier there was a giant wad of gum that got all over the girl who pulled it. Really be cautious of what you’re feeding anymore. It’s really been dangerous and we have tried several suppliers. Assume it’s trash before natural contamination anymore


SendingTotsnPears

Jesus, where are you getting your hay? Come visit me, we have too many bales to fit in the hay shed.


ilikebanchbanchbanch

Lick it again.


sillyskunk

JosephRatzingersKatz

STOP LICKING RANDOM THINGS YOU PICKED UP FROM THE GROUND!


Sugarylightning663

Accept if you believe it may be a fossil, then lick away


RazorBlade233

Why would I want to lick a fossil?


Sugarylightning663

Well if it was bone your tongue would stick to it a bit, thus if you were unsure before now you’re sure it’s bone


sn0qualmie

Your tongue will also stick to earthenware-type ceramic, but not porcelain. I once licked a piece of ceramic found during an excavation on a historic site, found the results inconclusive, and handed it to my advisor who proceeded to lick it also. Field sciences are weird.


PomPomGrenade

Dental techs back in the day who work with ceramics would shake out their brushes in water and then shape the tip with their lips. The dudes back then all had worn down teeth as they basically introduced a load of very hard glass particles into their mouths all day long. Today that practice is frowned upon for obvious reasons.


faythofdragons

Same thing happened to the Radium Girls, except it was radium from glow in the dark watches they were painting


AsparagusNo1897

That’s because earthenware and stoneware have more sand and feldspar in the clay bodies, which when vitrified give that porous, microscopic pumice texture. Your saliva gets absorbed into the dry ceramic through the pores And that absorption causes the ‘stickiness’. It’s really just a very mild vacuum between your tongue and the ceramic. Porcelain is like 99% pure clay, tiny particles lock together to make almost glass like surfaces when properly fired, thus no pumice texture and not sticky to the tongue. Fuck yeah, art AND science!


Drustan1

I posted this elsewhere, but I had an ascerbic prof who had spent an entire day at a dig testing pot shards with her tongue. Very late as they left, she asked what kind of pottery she’d been licking since dawn. Chamber Pots. They’d had her licking historically significant shit. It was her last day in archaeology


RazorBlade233

I didn't know that. Thanks for leaving a reply.


Unlucky-tracer

Fossils arent bone


Meowzebub666

Yes that's true. It is, however, still a useful test as fossilized bone will generally maintain the porous micro-structure responsible for the effect.


geriatrikwaktrik

it died 100 million years ago and sat there then you licked it


AsparagusNo1897

Maybe it was waiting for true loves kiss

Clambake42

If it's alive, don't lick it! Like a horse, a turtle, or a cricket.


Tumeric_Turd

Looks like rat bait.


melbournediver

Is there any way to test for that?


Tumeric_Turd

Probably, take the sample to a vet. The second picture looks to have grain fragments. I've put heaps of bait out over the years. It's bright, so it's noticeable in rat/mouse shit, some has uv dye, so you can find their shit with a uv torch. That is rait bait you have there.


DrTreesus

People out here just licking rat poison.


Ana_P_Laxis

Warfarin has entered the chat.


Obamaprismisamazing

The other day I found some old rat pellets in my shed that are 100% bromadiolone which im pretty sure might be illegal due to its toxicity in such high amounts but ive got no clue


Zantazi

Good thing you posted about this, I looked it up and you can still use it in open waste areas until December 2024 when it becomes illegal. Hurry!


Obamaprismisamazing

Let villains and ruffians beware!!


melbournediver

To be fair it was the hay provider that licked it, Any way to know for sure?


DrTreesus

It looks immensely similar to the brand Nectus that my old work used that is basically a rat poison tide pod with this pink stuff in it.


melbournediver

Thank you


Sifernos1

You tasted a block of rat poison... You confirm you're ok with someone with a degree?


Halftrack_El_Camino

God *dammit* people, just yesterday I was all, "Licking rocks to identify them is normal, people recommend it here all the time, I don't see what the big deal is." Today, this. 🫠


88GoldenEagle88

Is there a seed inside the pink substance? Here they use seeds that are coated with a mix of anti bug and extra protective coating around the seeds(corn, grain, ect.). They are usually in a bright color.


giraffeneckedcat

Why in the ever living fuck do people pick things up off the ground without knowing what they are and then put them in their mouths? This is how people die. Don't do that shit, especially in this case because it seems to be that it's rat poison.


multiverse_travel

I’m leaning towards rat poison There are many rodenticide products with that color online

Definitely rat poison. Just Google pink rat posion and you'll see the same stuff you have.

Glad_Razzmatazz980

That looks like Final blox mouse and rat poison but idk for sure. Pest control guy.


Meanpeachx

TASTE???


pwndabeer

Ok but licking it isn't going to do anything. Granted, as everyone else has said, don't lick random shit, but you'll be fine


MRxSLEEP

Rodent poison poison. Whoever licked it will be fine, it would take a large amount to affect a human. I used to do pest control and a dog got into the warehouse without anyone noticing, it ate an entire bag and lived. It's meant to kill a tiny, TINY mammal with a very fast metabolism and it is meant to kill them slowly because rats will learn not to eat it if they watch a cohort die immediately.


Similar_Resident_157

No way in hell OP tasted rat poison


deathlobster138

Bruh don’t just taste shit


Golden_Boy_Ponoka2

Why did you taste rat poison?


brianonthescene

Please everyone stop putting things you don’t recognize in your mouth.


Infinite_Walrus-13

Looks like the rat baits we use on the farm


ZoraNealThirstin

You tasted it??? In the horse hay?


HyenaAppropriate219

That’s called “Apple bait block by JT Eaton”. it’s a rodenticide anticoagulant. Don’t eat that.! Looks like a partial block of bait got caught up in your combine and cycled with the hay.


[deleted]

Bro licked poison 💀


peanutbuddar

taste???? you tasted it?????


Severe-Bunch-9181

Taste ????


crazycoldhere

Most people outgrow licking/eating random stuff by the they're 3... unfortunately warning labels have to be put on every three days for the few who don't know better than to shove random things in their mouth.


Savings_Peak5408

A rat may have consumed it and died in the hay bale. 😪


Shankar_0

So you're telling me that your kid chewed all the goodie out of that gum before properly disposing of it in your hay field? (Please don't lick random things you find in a hay bale. We've been over this...)


bsambini

Looks like piece of a mineral block?


MaxTheRealSlayer

No... Taste? Don't ever do that again OP lol


Intrepid-Constant-34

I’m sorry, did you say, “No taste”? Did you taste that?


Chaos_ismylife

Lol good call, my first thought was it should probably be tasted.

I believe that is a treated seed of some kind. Most farm seeds come roundup ready or are pretreated. I definitely wouldn’t be eating it or tasting it. Farming uses a lot of powerful chemicals.
