Newest cacti pest unlocked!

The cockatoos usually only eat my sunflowers but this guy wanted cactus juice? Spat all the pieces out but chewing into the cactus like it was delicious.
Anyone else deal with birds eating their cacti?

Received these from late grandparents, from a known sapphire rich area, northern tablelands NSW Aus

Any help identifying these blue (sapphire I believe) and red (?) stones would be really appreciated

Sinningia bullata hybrid seedlings. Do I need to thin out?

Dumped a heap of seeds into a container and left under grow light for a while, didn’t realise how dense the growth was! Should I thin out or leave to grow, when should I pot them up? Thanks

Small teeth found by grandparents somewhere on the east coast, Aus. Are they Shark?

Recently inherited a big rock collection from grandparents but nothings labeled and they’re no longer around to ask, these were among them and also a shark egg I believe.

New Operculicarya Decaryi! Seeking any advice with potting/ care. Thanks!

In particular how deep to plant the trunk? Where does the caudex actually start? and if the growth that’s coming from the roots (thicker root but pointing up like a smaller growth) is just a big root and I should bury it downwards or if it should be left sticking up as is? Hopefully that all makes sense, thanks!
