    Hard Enlarged Crop

    I don’t mean natural as in acv and pumpkin seeds, but more so without the egg withdrawal and big pharma brand?

    Hard Enlarged Crop

    Do you think it’s best to isolate her and hold back on feeding her for 24 hours giving her a dropper of olive oil and massaging more frequently?

    Hard Enlarged Crop

    She has access to grit all day and east fermented feed and dry. Both corn and soy free. I’m not sure why she last laid but have seen her in the nesting boxes.

    Bald Red Vent

    She’s not been overcrowded, she’s fed very well and only pecked on by the other girls when it’s bed time. They all peck each other when finding their place. The coop is kept clean, they have ample sun and shade. I don’t know why this happened.

    Limping/ stationary girl with injured foot or leg. Help!

    Thank you for your advice. I took her to the vet and they said she has a fractured hip! Rest, increase protein and limited movement were the suggestions. It’s been 3 weeks since it started and my girl doesn’t seem to be improving.
