    Me too! They protest, but I don’t feel secure until I know all those crops are 100% flat.

    Wonderful! She must be feeling better if she’s eating. I hope things keep improving :) (Her floppy comb is lovely btw! What a pretty girl!)

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    I’m sorry to hear about Flopsy. I hope she gets better. There are so many causes for crop stasis that it’s hard to know how to treat it. I found that giving my hen digestive enzymes and papaya helped a lot, but basically she got better on her own so long as we treated the infections she...

    Impacted and/or Sour crop treatment

    It was a vet who claims to treat exotics, but really birds are not her specialty. They did not have tubing small enough to do any sort of flush for her, nor could they perform any kind of surgery were it necessary. All they could do was x-ray her, take a fecal sample and give us antibiotics...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    2 eggs today, from Août and Marzo :) We had a little Christmas miracle this morning! Our hen Juin has had a slow crop for three weeks, causing her to get both bacterial and yeast infections. She’s been a house chicken all this time, while we’ve been watching her nonstop and cajoling her into...

    How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

    My 2 year old Marans (Cuckoo and Blue Cuckoo) lay smaller and paler eggs than normal when they start up laying again. Usually by their third egg everything is back to normal again. It’s hard to imagine an Australorp laying a copper egg, so I’d guess it’s your Marans hen.

    Impacted and/or Sour crop treatment

    As for Juin’s health at the moment, she’s doing worlds better. We were scared yesterday because she was pooping water with a bit of solids every 25 minutes. We took her off eggs, put her back on dry feed, and gave her Hydro Hen in her water for a few hours, which has probiotics, electrolytes and...

    Impacted and/or Sour crop treatment

    @azygous We performed the epsom salt flush you recommended for our hen, and the following droppings had a lot of yellow liquid. Is that normal? ChatGPT tells me it’s bile and that it’s an expected outcome of a flush, but I’d appreciate your opinion on it.

    Help with X-rays of chicken with slow crop and GI tract infection

    Thank you so much for your insight! I wish I knew why her crop was slow, but having a second opinion on whether there is impaction or something concerning makes me feel a lot better!

    Help with X-rays of chicken with slow crop and GI tract infection

    For the full backstory, I have been keeping a record of my chicken’s health journey in this thread. I took my hen to a vet who treats poultry but is not a specialist. She took these x-rays: I was hoping someone could help me understand them a bit better. The vet told me there was no...
