I haven’ t used this I think @New duck mommy 2021 has and maybe others @DuckyDonna ? @Canadian Wind have you?

Remember when they have an oil spill and to help shore birds with getting the oil off they use dawn detergent. Even on the bottle of Dawn there is a picture of a duck. Dawn removes the oils off the feathers and then after washing them in it you keep them out of water for a few days then once...

I meant to give you this yesterday https://www.backyardchickens.com/articles/safely-administering-oral-medications-to-all-poultry-and-waterfowl.73335/ How is she today?

I have never used the powder just the liquid. It may just depend on how you want to use it I give it by mouth but if powder you could mix it into a treat like chopped water melon or tomatoes main thing is she get full dose.

Wow that wasn't much help. Her gizzard is okay now right? How is she doing today? Of course she needs sunshine so nothing wrong in having her outside as long as she is happy and not being picked on. She also needs extra calcium like the cal citrate or calcium gluconate daily to get her shells...

I'm glad your getting her to a vet. look forward to hearing what they say.

What calcium are you using? If you don't have calcium citrate or calcium gluconate I'd recommend either of those. She needs extra calcium if your offering oyster shell she must not be eating enough which happens. Mix the calcium citrate or calcium gluconate into a small amount of treat so she...

Shes is adorable 🥰

She may have wet feathers since she was soaked. If you think that a possibility you can wash her in dawn make sure to rinse her well then keep her out of water a few days so she gets the oils spread over her feathers real good to get water proofed again.

Can you let her have a bath and then she’ll preen and spread her oils over her feathers?

Just my opinion I would not give grit she already has enough rocks in her body.

That is some great news!! Hopefully, you can get all of it to move on out of her crop. Just hope it doesn't get stuck somewhere else. Just thinking of this large amount of Oyster shells moving on through her system. Sorry, I am a worry wort when it comes to animals. Yes, how is she this morning?

Me either. :)

At this point I am not even sure massaging it down would be a good idea if the crop is completely full. @Spotgieter did the vet mention massaging after using the olive oil? I'm not trying to contradict you @AidKD just want to make sure the vet was adding massage to using the oilve oil.

I would not give grit on top of oyster shells. Having the vet take care of this is best if the olive oil isn't working.
