I'm not nearly as knowledgeable as @Wyorp Rock, but I can somewhat try to explain.Hi @Tookie, what is that and what could have caused it? Can I do something to help?
Sour crop is a yeast infection in the crop and causes the crop to not empty properly, so the crop will empty very slowly if at all. I can be caused by many different things like worms, moldy food, injury, impacted crop and other underlying conditions.
Impacted crop is when the crop has a blockage and cannot empty properly, it can be caused by the chicken eating long pieces of food like grass, string, feathers, and straw.
I have delt with sour crop before and used garlic chunks/garlic water, greek yogurt/kefir and colloidal silver.
I have never delt with impacted crop but I would give her coconut oil and massage her crop, keep repeating that until the blockage breaks up.
