impacted crops

I have recently noticed that my chicken may have an impacted/sour crop. I suspect it started a month ago. I was suspicious before but smelled her breath and she was fine she was also having a healthy appetite and has no signs of weight loss. Recently though her crop has grown in size and feels...

I didn't realize that the feeder was empty for a while and one of my chickens gorged herself on food when I refilled it maybe 3 hours ago. She looks almost like she's gagging while her crop moves up and down. Her crop itself is enlarged and hard, but she's acting fine besides that. I've given...

My hen Red has been pretty stressed out. One of my roosters must have been harassing her. She is blind in one eye so she is vulnerable to bullying and attack. I killed the offensive rooster but she is still traumatized and scared of the other (and only) rooster I now have. I've been trying to...

Today I noticed that my 4.5 y/o RIR has a massive crop, more than usual. I noticed it slightly swings left and right when she runs and, I dunno, just seems really big. It feels firm but with give--not hard or anything. At what point should I worry or keep her from eating or drinking? I don't...

Hello! I am so new to treating chickens for things. But I tried to do the research here but can’t find exactly what I’m looking for. I have a GLW that is due to be laying anytime. I noticed when I counted the flock earlier in the day she was missing. Well I searched the large run we have and...

Hi all thank you for your advice in advance. I've had these baby chicks for a week now. There is 5 in total. One is week and lathargic since yesterday. She could barely stand yesterday. After some scrambled eggs and chick starter made into a mash in an effort to get her a bit stronger everyone...
