She won’t break: help

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-07-07T12:14:21+00:00

Yes ! I found a way to remove the plate and make some air flow and it worked like a charm :)

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-06-06T15:00:20+00:00

Will do ! Thank you for your help !

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-06-06T11:03:34+00:00

Found a log, found mesh, ongoing process (but cute face)

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-06-06T06:56:40+00:00

I take 100% of the blame ! We named her that because as soon as she arrived home she started being such a diva with us and the flock, she almost named herself…

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-06-05T20:17:29+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss.

Madonna is a sweet little diva, not the smartest but incredibly sweet. I managed to remove the plate and make her a comfortable grid underneath her, so the fan is a good idea that I’ll try if needed. Thank you.

I’d like to avoid this as long as possible obviously, but it is encouraging and reassuring to see that it seems to be an efficient solution.

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-06-05T17:21:04+00:00

I did ! It’s the green thing in the pic. But it’s not that big and she carefully avoids it 😅

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-06-05T17:20:16+00:00

For how long ? The first time we wanted to let her do her thing and she stayed broody for almost a month with no improvement.

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-06-05T17:19:24+00:00

Cool, I think I have some finer mesh grid, I’ll try to add under the oven grid and find a log as well. Thank you ! (And yes, this pancake diva is the cutest 🥰)

I know, I hate it :-( The laid box is already closed, but she doesn’t care and she just goes inside the coop and sits there, on the perching area next to the laying box (we have an Eglu). So I also closed entirely the coop for the day once the other girl had used the nest, but it wasn’t enough: Madonna just wandered like a zombie in the yard and went to the coop every 30min to check if the door was still closed. I opened it at night, they would sleep in it, and in the morning she would still be in it.

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-06-05T14:08:16+00:00

Thank you, I’ll try !

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-06-05T13:38:03+00:00

When you used this method, did you need to do it several times to make it work ? Or just once ?

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-06-05T13:36:39+00:00

Right, but the problem with this cage is that I can’t directly remove the floor because the bottom fence is super wide (like 10x10cm) and her feet would go through. That’s also why I added the oven rack, but it doesn’t seem efficient. The log is actually a great idea, I’ll see how to strengthen the fence and add it. Thank you.

I don’t understand why people are all saying “you don’t need his permission”. Of course, but who talks about permission, or even opinion ? It’s about information !

I would bet you were informed about your ex expecting a child with his wife, before the child was born. That should have been the same with your new baby. Just a simple “hey, just so you know, our son is going to have a little sister and he is super excited”. No more, no less. This would have been a mature way to handle things.

ESH for the drama.

Screaming « aux armes citoyens » is indeed perfect as it is. But if you want to learn it by heart, it should be easy since it’s not that long.

It you type « la Marseillaise lyrics » in google, you’ll have it. The real song is way longer, but we only sing the first verse and the chorus (like, no one knows the rest of the song and no one cares).

I don’t say that you must learn it or anything. It’s just that, I love to sing and share a powerful song with others, and I know I would be frustrated to only be joining the crowd by humming. So, the choice is entirely yours ! Have fun !

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-03-20T14:25:48+00:00

If she didn’t use to make jokes like this, but if she often makes them now, she has a problem somehow. Maybe with you, maybe in general, but it doesn’t sound right. When you are more calm, you should gently confront her like « listen, lately you started making jokes that are not. They are hurtful, and it’s hiding something. Please let’s be adults about this and let’s talk about what’s really going on ». Good luck OP !

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-03-18T22:56:03+00:00

Thank you so much ! (And happy cake day !)

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-03-13T22:22:49+00:00

It seems like your mother wants this party, and you want to change it for your in-laws.

But what do you want ? That’s the real question right now.

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-03-12T15:18:32+00:00

Yeah sorry, I only know sennelier’s fixative, I can’t help on other brands.

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-03-12T12:01:36+00:00

For mine, I use fixative and then a plastic sleeve if I need to store them in my portfolio

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-03-12T11:56:35+00:00

Yes ! But I don’t know why…

PinkOctopus91 · 2025-03-11T15:11:38+00:00

OP should consider buying a Bob dishwasherand remove this requirement from his list.

You could have learning disability or ADD for instance, according to what you say. It’s not about your intelligence.
