    Impacted crop, complete and total lethargy

    I have a hen that seems to have an impacted crop. She’s completely lethargic, eyes closed. I’ve massaged her crop sever times today but there’s no way she’s taking any oil to help. She seems to far gone to hold upside down. Should I just put her down or is there anything that can be done?
