I came home tonight to find one of my hens "hiding" under the coop ramp. she was very lethargic and barely moved when i went to reach for her. Her chest looked puffy so my thought was sour crop. I put her in a nesting box and she just stood there closing her eyes on occasion. The crop felt like a balloon i massaged the crop it got smaller then and she pooped a little (small brown with clear liquid). Went out 45 min later and crop was balloon like again. massaged and she pooped. Went back out 30 min later and there was a soft egg. Massaged her again and she went to her roost. I did change their food last Friday and the others seem fine. Any suggestions
