Thanks all, I'll bump in a few weeks when it becomes more apparent!

Hi All, I purchased 3 chicks all sexed as "pullets" from Farm and Fleet on March 12. Wondering how the hatchery(Cackle) did, or if I'll be waiting a few more weeks to know. Barred Rock: Blue Laced Wyandotte: Cherry Egger(Rhode Island Red breed): Group shot:

Sorry to be bumping again but there's still fluid, albeit it seems a little less, in her crop. How long should this be taking?

yeah, hopefully it's just paranoia from the last time.. The last one was noticed early morning with a full crop and very lethargic. It felt like I was too late and I wanted to be more proactive. I guess all that has me worried now is how long the water should be sitting in the crop.

and immediately after posting this she had 2 smaller (for her) droppings looking about equal in urates and "brown matter" lol. Crop is still water filled. How fast should that be draining normally?

So my Buff Bramha that broke her beak a few weeks back and has since recovered has me worried again lol. Checked on her around 8am an noticed she had a solid crop. She could've definitely stuffed herself between the automatic coop door opening at sunrise and me checking on her, but a recent loss...

Yes!

Here she is after removal. It doesn't appear to be cracked any further.

Okay, done! The break does appear to slightly go beyond where the tissue starts. Is that going be alright? And you think she will be fine with the others? Thank you!

Hi all. One of my 11week old pullets cracked her upper beak a few days back. I seperated her from the flock and used a bit of super glue gel and teabag fabric to reinforce the cracked area which was working fine until today. the cracked tip is now barely hanging on. she does not seem to be in...
