    Tea Tree suppositories for sour crop?

    EDIT: nevermind, i just got some regular old yeast infection cream from the drug store. --- I just read the Monistat thread re: sour crop. I have a very weak bird with sour crop (and suspected impacted crop?). I am curious if anyone has tried using tea tree suppositories (designed for...

    Suspected impacted crop, any other options?

    I have an ill chicken, looking for success stories. This has been a persistent problem over the past few weeks, with up and down activity levels and appetite. Taken a turn for the worse over the past couple days with even lower activity level. Problem seems to be impacted crop, as she wakes...

She's alert, eating, bathing, walking, laying, drinking, being noisy, her comb is bright, no signs of bumblefoot or vent prolapse...

One passed away last week, and another...

    Crop problem? (pic included)

    One of my Ameraucanas has recently developed a very loose and saggy crop. I fondled it for a while and it really just seems like loose skin with extra fluffy feathers (I think she was just molting recently, too). I was unable to find any photos of a bird with sour crop, and I don't think it fits...
