    HELP! Sick Hen

    UPDATE: She's been on Monistat since Friday. It's helped with the foul smell, but her crop still isn't emptying. It feels like a water balloon, or maybe that's her abdomen? She's had probiotics and yogurt. I've also given some silver. Because of her age, I'm concerned I won't be able to save...
