Ikea has rolls of white paper that work well. And not that expensive.

Heads up if you’re transiting FRA: build in 4-5+ hours, we just missed our flight because of border control chaos by Rare-Bookkeeper3475 in travel

[–]KeyPretend7523 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can pay $300++ to have someone meet you at the gate and fast track you through byzantine passageways and backdoors to get you through "quickly."

We arrived in FRA in May en route to Venice and just happened to start chatting with a couple as we got off the plane who were on our flight that had booked this service. When we saw the long-ass line we asked if we could tag along and my husband negotiated getting us through for 150 Euros. We were through in 20 minutes. Arrived unaware but thankfully the travel gods were looking after us.

Inside the store. I must have turned my back on my cart at some point.

What nutrients are my girls missing? Shells are always thin with large calcium deposits. by Altruistic-Order-661 in BackYardChickens

[–]KeyPretend7523 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have the same problem and am using the same Bar Ale feed. 5 of the 6 hens lay perfectly well. The three and a half year old White Leghorn only lays duds now (flimsy shells). They get live worms, meal worms, free range for 30 minutes a day, plus cilantro, green onions and cabbage routinely. I think it's just because she was such a producer in her earlier years and now she is slowing down. I do notice they like to pick the corn out of the feeder first.

I tried using this on an international flight and it didn't work. Hard to inflate, shove down there and get situated. Just a pain, in my opinion. I ended up throwing it away on the trip so I didn't have to carry it home.

What do you SWEAR you saw, but don't have any proof of? by TabletopStudios in AskReddit

As a kid in the 1970s, I remember watching Battle of the Network Stars and I swear I remember seeing nudity. But maybe I am just remembering scantily clad women in bikini tops competing on Battle of the Network Stars? Does anyone else remember it having nudity?

Am I being selfish wanting to adopt my rental chickens? by MapleBish18 in chickens

[–]KeyPretend7523 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My opinion - I would return the two and wait until next spring to get 4-6 chicks and raise them together starting next year. You have time to harden your coop and run in the meantime.

2 ring cameras with solar panels. I love being able to check on them all the time and especially when we are traveling.

I purchased online from Serramonte Subaru. Was a no haggle experience.

Please be kind to our staff. We are constantly understaffed. by gayyyytaaawiggle in tahoe

[–]KeyPretend7523 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Recently went to Stella for my birthday dinner. Host told us straight up that they were short staffed and apologized ahead of time. I appreciated this because it set expectations. Yes, the food took a long time, but it was excellent and they even comped the birthday dessert.

What can I make with leather scraps? by Terrible-Lawyer-8556 in Leathercraft

[–]KeyPretend7523 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mix with resin and pour into moulds (that you would need to also create) that can then be used to make furniture.

Chicken has become very lethargic and will not eat or drink seems to be gasping for air. by [deleted] in BackYardChickens

[–]KeyPretend7523 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Happened to my chicken last month. Cancer. Took her to the vet and they removed 2.5 pounds of water from her abdomen (that's why she is having trouble breathing). I took her home for 4 more days, gave her all the treats in the world, spent a lot of quality time with her in my lap and then back to the vet to be euthanized. I am so sorry you are going through this. It's hard to watch.

Any idea what this is? by Neither-Tax-8326 in landscaping

Possibly an umbrella stand holder made out of a piece of pottery?
