Al, way back when, my ENT sold me a doo hickey that attached to my waterpik. Flushed out the sinuses with the baking soda/ salt brew.
Since then, I've just learned to suck IN in the shower, and try not to choke to death rinsing them out in there.
At least you don't need a life jacket in there!
Just be sure you rinse the walls down of any evidence....

Good morning all!

Thanks for all the great sinus stories. I woke up so stuffy I can't breathe.

Gladys is going to stay in the coop again today and until I decide she's figured it out. Chicken recidivism. No reprieve this time.

I am astounded at how fast the chicks are changing. Shirley, the Golden Comet, is turning brown before my eyes. I swear you can see the difference in a matter of hours. When my daughter looked at them yesterday she couldn't believe it.

Bobby says he's going to miss having Gladys help him in the yard today. That's the same man who said "CHICKENS??!!" when I brought Gladys home. That and, "You're on your own." Gotta love it!

It'll cure ya if it don't kill ya! Maybe I should just hook the vacuum cleaner up to my nose and give that a try. Now I see where water torturing got its start.

I think it's back to the Sudafed and squeeze bulb rinse. Woke up the pain still over my right eye. These antibiotics are not getting through to the nasty stuff. Same thing happened last year that made me have to get the surgery. Six weeks of a fever was no fun. Probably will have to call the ENT tomorrow.

Gladys needs a little time, and you are don't the right thing.

Our Golden's grew that way too. It is amazing how those little balls of fluff transform into less than cute in the first few days. Then they get cute again in a couple of months.

Nothing like this kind of conversation before breakfast. Makes me want to have some soft boiled eggs.

Think there is a relationship to owning chickens and sinus problems? Might have to start a new thread in the illness and disease forum.

Al, just be sure to use the shop vac. I don't think your wife would be happy....well, you know!

Suzanne, why don't you guys let the babies into the run today? Give a little taste of what's to come?
That way you can see how Gladys reacts.

AAACCK!

Anyone mind if I change the subject?

Here's a picture of little Shirley at 3 weeks (this morning):

This was 2 days ago:

It's not just me, right?
