    Sour crop

    On the 4th day of administering Minconazole 2% nitrate, Gertrude the chicken passed away this morning. I came out to find her very very weak and then died by seizure a few minutes later. The crop had been emptied like normal and she had access to food and water.

    Sour crop

    I believe my chicken is suffering from sour crop. She is acting pretty lethargic and has a full liquidy crop. When I massage it in the direction of her vent she throws up foul smelling liquid. What can I do to help her?

    Sick buff orpington. Lethargic and severe weight loss

    I can't hear her breathing but yes. I think it might be chicken cancer.

    Is my chicken being bullied, sick, or just broody?

    I have a jersey giant hen that has been broody for a couple weeks (I have even dunked her in water and she won't quit being broody, now I'm just blocking off the coop) and around the same time she has lost a lot feathers. She acts fine around the other hens and I never see her get picked on...
