    Potential soue crop

    Hi, I recently started fermenting my hens feed, 4 days ago. I noticed my big Braham had a huge crop last night on the roost & then this morning it did not fully empty. I let them out in the run like normal while I researched what to do, so she did already ate some. Before she ate her crop felt...

    Crop not fully emptying/impacted crop?

    Thank you! That was helpful. The little food I'm feeling in the crop seems lower than it should be. It's below the breastbone. It feels empty other than the granuals I feel. It's hard and dense. More like soft and lumpy. I don't smell anything sour. She is very underweight, but I see her eat...
