    What kind of rooster is this?

    Just happened to be browsing mypetchicken and this was on the front. That is one pretty rooster, I'm interested to know what kind it might be.

    Pendulous crop - Anyone have/had a chicken with it.

    So after messing with crop issues for over a month now, I think my chicken definitely has Pendulous crop. This is our first set of chickens so I had to gradually build myself up to things to treat her. We monitored her food and water intake, I vomited her, we treated with monistat twice, and...

    Sour/Impacted Crop *Newbie Here*

    When we let her out it will be in a run attached to the coop but there is some grass. (I tilled up a lot of it but it keeps coming back so we just keep it trimmed)

    She has been inside since I posted this . (22 days) And it just never empties it is either a water balloon or a balloon full of sand. (Like a stressball) Nothing feels hard or impacted, I only feel the chick crumbles and grit. Her poop looks fine so food is obviously passing. So I don't know...

    Well, she hasn't died on us, but her crop won't go down. I feel like I tried every home remedy out there. We are putting her back in the yard and just letting her be. :(

    Sour/Impacted Crop *Newbie Here*

    I started the 1st day of monistat today since nothing else was working. She seems very hungry and actually ate the monistat. She also got a hold of some straw the chicks we have flung from their brooder. I swear she must have told them to do it. So now I'm worried about her eating that and...

    She's been perky this whole time. Sometimes I worry it would have gone away on its own and I'm doing more harm than good. Fingers crossed for tomorrow.

    Sour/Impacted Crop *Newbie Here*

    So I've been feeding her a small amount of scrambled egg this last day. (like a spoon full very small amount) But her crop was again up and quishy this morning. So I made her barf it it up (she didn't have water last night so all that must be from yesterday, should it have all gone done or...

    Today it was back to balloon mode. However, I was able to make her puke up, and I think I actually got most of everything out. There was grass in it, which I know is 4 days old. So fingers crossed this is the turn around point.

    Another crop issue

    This is exactly what we are doing with our chicken. We are on day 3 and it is still not down. How long did it take for yours to recover?

    Sour/Impacted Crop *Newbie Here*

    First time I could actually feel things inside since this started! It still looks pretty large, and is it normal to be off to one side? However this last time while massaging it I could really press together and feel what was in there. It honestly feels like mostly grit or sand. No lumps...
