Those who have performed crop surgery, can you tell me how you knew your chicken's crop was impacted? Did you feel something in the crop, or take a guess that it was impacted?
hay hay,
My little chicken's crop stuck WAY out and was hard. I compared her to the other hens and theres would go down at night.
sad to say, My GG hung on for 3 weeks or a bit more, but declined steadly, im thinking there were other issues further in?
she was always happy to see me, but was barely eating after the first couple of weeks. She would only eat treats and then quit that. I could not see hardly anything coming out the other end. When she couldn't get up I finally helped her over the rainbow bridge and squalled my fool head off. During that time I lost another favorite to some type of respiratory ailment. It happened very quickly, I barely knew she was ill. so i've been really bummed about them. I would never have believed i would get so attached.
