Donmeca: Today, I removed the splint, just under a month in treatment.
I had noticed for some days that the turkey had been walking fairly well, and standing on both legs. So, I gave it a few more days and removed the splint today. it's been behaving fine, after taking a few long minutes to scratch the affected thigh.
I'm happy it turned out well. And, for the first time, I feel glad that this happened, to teach me that it was possible to treat a broken fermur in such big birds
Thank you guys. I share your joy over this accomplishment. It goes to show that there's no problem without a solution. |
Romance › Re: My Parents Won't Allow Me Marry Outside My Tribe by Blackbelly(m): 7:40pm On May 10, 2020 |
Thiwalade: ... I'm always surprised at issues arising from tribal differences. Isn't it confounding that our parents will allow us marry "rich" people from another tribe but when it comes to the average person, all laws immediately come into foray. Tribe should be one of the least things to look out for in a spouse. Humans are the same, though our environment influences our morals, social life and character. In my humble opinion, the environment which is primarily the family one grew up in is a better precursor of an individual's values. A fellow tribesman/woman can be your downfall as well as your pillar of support. Evil knows no tribe, religious beliefs, family, country or whatever denomination you may be from. The earlier we start seeing people as individuals instead of tagging "yoruba person" "aboki" "omo igbo" to their heads, the better for our country.
In addition,
You only limit yourself if you let yourself be blinded by tribe even your own family can frame you up. A complete stranger can be the helper of your destiny. Many have lost valuable people due to nonsense tribal sentiments.
We are never born to hate on a particular tribe or people but it's often learnt from our parents or a general misconception arising from one person's experience of another from a tribe. Let's not allow a person's experience guide how we treat our fellow humans.
Be cautious, trust no one because evil knows no color or religion. It couldn't have been better said. You spelt out my thoughts almost verbatim.

Donmeca: Hello.
Today was significant in that it was exactly one week since the unfortunate injury. The bird is in high spirits, has good appetite and always wants to be with others, when I release the healthy ones. Sometimes, I'd help it down.
But today, I noticed it was squatting perfectly, folding both legs well. That shows it has begun applying more pressure on the broken thigh. Before now, it'd lay sideways, with injured leg stretched. Secondly, it no longer likes to eat in lying position. It always wants to stand (on one leg) to eat.
Guess it's an improvement. It's really comforting to know its improving. I share in your relief lol |

Donmeca: Well, it's still alive. Began eating small feed last night. Ate again this morning.
I had to use cloth and sticks to splint the thigh. It sometimes stands on one leg and drops after after a few minutes. It's visibly in serious pains. I feel pity for the poor thing
I won't kill it. I'll just care for it and watch what happens. If it does, okay. But if it survives, I'll be happy.
Guess I'll be blogging its progress here. Problem is when lockdown ends, i.may not know its activities during the day. But I'll tell its story to build our knowledge base here and for us to learn. I'll be following your thread to get updates on the progress. I was about mentioning splinting the fractured bone but you've done that already. I'll advice you frequently check the site to know if the splint is still firm or too tight. How old is the poult? |

Quite a heart touching message from the Prime minister. This gives credence to the fact that behind every dark cloud, there's a silver lining, and as such I think its high time the media start giving more publicity about those who win the fight against the virus. Fear has killed more infected people than even the disease. |

PrinxArthur1: read carefully before making conclusions, nothing was left behind! Your second analysis has some flaws. Let's not keep going back and forth about who's correct and who's not. OP should give his input to quell our divergent views. |
Family › Re: I.Q TEST: Let's See How Sound You Are In Quantitative Reasoning by Blackbelly(m): 6:24pm On Apr 12, 2020 |
PrinxArthur1: This is for the first question 3 equal shapes (helmet)was equated to 30 as a number so the common sense there is 30/3=10, so each helmet represent the number 10, then 2 racing cars+1 helmet was equated to 20,but one helmet=10,therefore subtract 10 from 20, u have 10, that means that each racing car represent 5, Then, twin trophy was added to another twin trophy+one racing car which was=13,but recall that each racing car equals 5,therefore 13 minus 5 =8, which means that each twin trophy=4, Then the question now comes helmet + racing car × single trophy, Therefore double trophy 4,single trophy will : 4/2=2, I.e single trophy =2 The question now is 10+5×2=20(using bodmas) Lol you left out one variable in your analysis. Theres a helmet on a racing car in the question which you didn't account for. |

There's an unidentified variable in both puzzles. It is not indicated if the variable is based on addition or multiplication. From algebra, we know that a×b=ab therefore, I'll assume that the combination of unlike terms was made by multiplication. If so, the first puzzle will be mathematically expressed as: 10+(10×5)×2 10+50×2 Using the rule of BODMAS, 10+100 =110 For the 2nd puzzle, the mathematical expression goes thus: (7×4)+(4+4)×8 28+8×8 Using the same BODMAS rule: 28+64 =92 In summary: Puzzle 1 is 110 Puzzle 2 is 92
Modified: OP in your answer to the second puzzle, you didn't take into account that the flowers are in a pot, you only calculated for the flowers. Secondly there is no visual clue to prove that the pot in the middle has two rings. It still appears to be two pots. I also don't agree with your answer that the little helmet on the middle racecar was to misdirect the observer. An ideal puzzle always takes into little details into account. If we suggest that some obvious visual clues are meant to throw off the observer, we might as well come to a conclusion that the designer of the puzzle is the only one capable of answering the puzzle as it has already defied basic logic.
I would suggest you screenshot the correct answer as solved by the puzzle designer, that way we can be rest assured of its validity, because what you put up there is your own opinion as with all of us. Nevertheless, I'll put this up on Quora. Hopefully, I'll be able to trace the original answer. Çiao |

DEGREE2466: Please nairalanders i need your urgent suggestion on what to do about this issue.
My wife accused me of snoring in the night but i denied it knowing so well that i dont snore.
Then she ask me what she should do to let me know i snore. I told her to give me a heavy knock whenever i snore though jokingly but seriously because i know i dont snore. Since that time my head has never remain the same. Anything i do something that displeases her she will give me a heavy knock in the night and when i ask her what the problem is, she will tell me that i was snoring.
I even went to the extent of staying awake all night to catch her and unfortunately for her she came and gave me one of her usual heavy knock thinking i was sleeping!
I would have given her the beat of her life that night if not that i promised myself not to lay my hand on my wife.
Please what do i do to stop this nefarious and relatiative attitude of my dear loving wife? Buhahahahaha...the part of the 'heavy knock' really cracked me up. Op kpele o. Let's wait for the elders to give advice. |

They all have the same attitude towards relationship I believe your assertion is a fallacy of hasty generalization. There are still good women out there.

Walexz02: Worry not Just make sure the brooding space is ok. May lay more before it will start brooding I can finally heave a sigh of relief, the turkey hen has started brooding after laying the 18th egg today I can't say if it'll lay more though. Believe me it was frightening to think that it won't show maternal instincts. The only problem now are the 'oversabi' turkeys that are squeezing themselves into the clutch to brood the eggs alongside the egg layer. I'll have to isolate the mother hen and her clutch of eggs to prevent damage. |
