PictureThis, LeafSnap and Planta are all telling me that both of these plants are Eves Needles. They don't look the same to me. Any thoughts?

Looks like Austrocylindropuntia subulata (eves needle) and A. cylindrica (cane cactus)!

That left one is a Gumby plant. It’s a mutation of an eaves needle. It doesn’t have as many thorns. It’s got more of those soft little production things here are some information and a picture cause I have one of those. It’s really kind of cool the Havelina do they will try and eat it they didn’t destroy the whole thing, but they did take bites out of it

Cool. Thank you.

They are pretty sensitive to root rot if it happens to get root right at the bottom, just pull it out cut it off. Let it callous put it back in the dirt.
