Yes, I did do it myself. I’m glad I did even though I didn’t want to. Helped me see that there was something further along in her intestine and honestly I don’t think I could have done anything differently.

I had a red sex link that ONLY ever laid shell-less eggs after passing a lash egg soon after I got her as at a year old. Tried all the things I could find. Jemima lived a really good life for almost 3 years despite whatever repro issues she had! Hopefully your girl will be around for many more...

Thank you for that link. Just did another on Thursday and found a blockage in Blanche’s intestine. Plain as the nose on my face. I’m learning for sure what to look for.

That was her gizzard in that photo, her crop was empty. I’ve dealt with sour crop before and this wasn’t it. I’m leaning towards a vitamin b deficiency after doing a bit more research but thanks for your comments!

So I did Blanche’s necropsy today. Her crop was very full but not solid. Her gizzard was stuffed and super solid. I did find a super hard blockage in her intestine. I’m going to post a picture of it. It makes sense that all she was passing was liquid, She lost so much weight in 6 days. Nothing...

I have to wait until Thursday but I will definitely let you know what I find. It’s weird, I thought her crop felt so much better Monday am and then she just continued to have worse diarrhea. I feel like there had to have been some kind of blockage further along. Maybe an impacted gizzard. We...

I’m glad your girl is doing better! Blanche passed away today. I’m going to try to do the necropsy tomorrow. Not excited for it but I really need to know. Looked like she was doing better on Monday am. 😢

Yes I’m at the point where I NEED to know what happened so I can stay on top of things or tweak stuff if need be. I got my first three girls in 2020 so I’ve lost a few… hawks and EYP. Thanks for the support. Trying to get one back on track and it’s blowing my mind. I was ready (not ready, but...

Thank you, hoping I don’t have to do another one soon but thank you for the reference!

Thank you, This was super hard for me and I was just trying to remember things to look for. (My friend actually did all the cutting because I just couldn’t yet. Gotta get over that.) I saw nothing fatty, no weird fluids, nothing that resembles an egg/eggs, internal laying or bound. I was looking...

Thank you- I understand people are busy. No worries. Have a good day 😊

Thank you. Those are the first links I found when searching starting last Tuesday. So much great information.

Tagging you @azygous for some help with Blanche and her doughy crop. I’ve watched the videos in the links and tried everything I’ve read. Just frustrated for her.

I thought I had already started a thread and now I can’t find it lol

Wondering how things went with your girl? I am at a loss with Blanche, my 7 month old BCM. I’ve tried every single thing I could find on this forum and just ordered everything to do the crop surgery. I’m scared to do it but I don’t see any other option at this point. She’s still semi active and...

Where did you get the acidified copper sulfate? Do you have a picture of the package of the one you used? I will get it immediately. If it will help my girl.

Thank you, we lost one on Sunday to what I think was a vitamin B deficiency. Now I’m kicking myself for trying a different feed from a local mill. Everybody raves about it but having issues with two of my girls since using it makes me wonder. I don’t know, I’m just at a loss.
