    Advice on Sick/Lethargic Chicken (poop pictures included)

    Update: House Chicken has passed on. The reason why she wasn't passing food through her crop is because she was clogged up on the other end..... :( I traced her digestive track to see if I could locate a something in her gizzard and I felt a huge mass between her legs (my heart sank). I...

    Advice on Sick/Lethargic Chicken (poop pictures included)

    No major change in her poop this morning and no, there is nothing like beads or something small she could have gotten into... maybe dog food, but that should be water soluble. I can definitely feel those blueberries in her crop, but they seem harder than I would have thought and there are...

    Pill is popped and down. I massaged her crop and definitely feel a few larger chunks. They feel like the size of blueberries (which she recently ate whole) but these chunks feel very hard.

    I have the recommended stool softener that contains Docusate Sodium. I will break that capsule apart and syringe feed it to her. How many should she get? I assume 1 tablet of 100 mg?

    Video for reference: Another night of a mixture of coconut oil, electrolytes, and yogurt along with the crop massages.

    @Wyorp Rock Lol. That pink is my hand and the crinkly underneath is a plastic bag I used to take the poop out of her crate. It is reassuring to see you guys are so detail orientated. I have seen some youtube videos about trying to push her impacted crop back up to try and clear it. What are...

    Advice on Sick/Lethargic Chicken (poop pictures included)

    Update: She is still alive and very sluggish. We gave her some more coconut oil, electrolytes, and greek yogurt via syringe. She is very thin and her crop is still full even after trying to massage the food down. We are just trying to get calories into her so she can try and recover and pass...

    Advice on Sick/Lethargic Chicken (poop pictures included)

    We ended up giving her about 1/8 cup of electrolytes and massaged her crop. It went from solid to very malleable and I could effeminately feel some larger chunks in there. We have removed her food and frozen some of the coconut oil for her to try and eat this morning. We will repeat this...

    Advice on Sick/Lethargic Chicken (poop pictures included)

    To clarify the "zit" on the picture is just a banana from this morning that she bit into and it got all over. All of her snacks (scrambled eggs w/ shell, cabbage, apple, dash of cinnamon) are all cooked in coconut oil. She does get the grit (small stones) AND calcium in her food. I would say...

    Advice on Sick/Lethargic Chicken (poop pictures included)

    Not sure about the crop problems. It seems full, but my wife said she hasn't eaten anything today. We gave her some oil via syringe (wife is a nurse) and massaged her crop. There is no discharge from her beak, and nothing smells. We haven't medicated her, and there is nothing new she could...

    Advice on Sick/Lethargic Chicken (poop pictures included)

    Hello, My wife and I are looking for some advice on our sick House Chicken. She is a Rhode Island Red and about 2.5 years old. She was attached by a red-tailed hawk last fall and has been living in the warm house ever since (my wife's idea... not mine). She lives in a dog crate (3' x 4')...
