I had a hen picked at by another hen about two weeks ago. The injured hen has never been herself since then, but injuries are fine. Tonight I when I was checking on her I found that her crop is like a water balloon. I vomitted her and attempted to feed her some plain yogurt and some bread soaked in olive oil, but was not able to get much in her. I always put ACV in their water. Should I keep trying this for a few days or should I get some monistat for fer?

I like everything about it except how it looks right now. I know it lays decently. It is a great part of my great waterfowl flock. -
First, watching a runner duck run is awesome. They can find their own food. They aren't like pekins in water. Mine haven't started laying but I heard their decent. -
Its not as fat and slow as a pekin, but its not frail either. I want a mallard but I don't want a flying bird. The rouen is great for that. -
They are my calmest birds and are easiest to catch. They eat less than Pekins. I heard they also lay well, but mine are younger.
