    Hen's face is pale, not as active as others, crop big, please help🙏

    Hello everyone..well one of my hens, a 2 year old Sapphire gem named Gert, isn't looking so hot. Her comb and wattles seem way paler than the normal deep red they are, and her crop is very large. I'll have to see if it's empty by the morning, because I just noticed her crop today (so it's too...

    Huge Crop: When to Intervene?

    Today I noticed that my 4.5 y/o RIR has a massive crop, more than usual. I noticed it slightly swings left and right when she runs and, I dunno, just seems really big. It feels firm but with give--not hard or anything. At what point should I worry or keep her from eating or drinking? I don't...

    Crop bra in Australia?

    My 8 month old Silkie hen has a quite large crop (pictures attached). She eats, drinks, poops, and participates as normal in the coop with my other four Silkies (though note she hasn't laid an egg in about a month - not sure if that should be a concern?). She has been to an avian vet who...

    She looks horrible

    I have one hen that is looking really horrible. This is my first time raising chickens. They were given to me last year around this time. They all layed eggs well at the time. Then when spring hit, they slowed to about 1 to 2 eggs a day. Now, I haven't gotten an egg in 3 days. All of them look...

    2wk old chick huge chest - impacted crop??

    I'm brand new to chickens. I have 6 chicks who are 2 weeks old. (I don't know what breed they are) 3 are small brown and 3 are yellow. The yellow ones are now more than double the size of the brown ones! My concern (other than wondering if these yellow ones are actually meat birds) is that they...

    13 Week Old Chick With Impacted Crop.

    Hello, I would like some tips for the best ways to treat impacted crop? I've tried the Olive Oil, with massage with some success. The crop did go down alittle, but is still quite large, & is as hard as golf ball. I tried the water trick, with massage which was a fail. Going to try coconut oil...

    Pretty sure I'm Overreacting but... Chicks with Full Crops from Gorging?

    Okay so I'm pretty sure they're fine. But I need feedback!!!! My chicks (approx 2.5 weeks) ran out of food and knocked their water over when I was at work. I gave them more of both when I got home, and they proceeded to stuff their tiny crops FULL. They're disproportionately large and they kept...

    Huge Crop On Turken Chick!

    My 2 1/2 week old NN chick has a huge crop. It’s been like this for at least a week now. I thought it was strange but the chick doesn’t act distressed in any way. It eats at drinks normally. I put the chicks outside for about an hour today so they could scratch around and sunbathe. I picked...

    Sick chicken with large crop, constantly vomiting.

    my chicken Emmy is acting weird. She is vomiting, has a large crop, always lays down, I don't know if she is eating or drinking at all. It is really hot here, I don't know if that has anything to do with it. She is around a year & a half maybe, and is a silver laced Wyandotte. She has always had...
