    Equate miconazole monostat for doughy sour crop now lethargic HELP

    My 4 month old blue copper maran has had a big doughy crop for about a week now. Can mold it like clay. It is not hard and I've squished it around and do not feel any hard masses, so I don't suspect impaction, at least not in the crop. Possibly further in the gizzard or digestive tract but I...

    (not asking for advice, just sharing HeadHen's journey, have thread for advice) So, this is HeadHen. Black Australorp, got her end of Feb 2023 in a straight run. She was the biggest hen: size, comb, redness. Even over some of the cockerels. She was always right there, talkative, loved eating...

    Helping with Sour Crop/Regurgitation

    Hi, I've never posted on a forum before, but I think we may have recently saved our at least extended our Rhode Island Red's (Lois) life with this. She has occasionally had mild sour crop issues. She is about three years old, and has had a few bouts maybe the last two years. Not terrible, just...

    New to geese: questions and concerns!

    Hi everyone! I just acquired two Sebastopol goslings and I have a few questions. I’m pretty sure they’re mixed. They’re not breed standard, but they’re just pets so that really isn’t an issue. Number one issue is one seems to have an issue with her crop. She is holding her head up like she’s...

    Impacted or sour crop?

    one of our BPR, has what looks like impacted or sour crop. We’ve isolated her for 24 hours without food, water only with ACV, given her cooked eggs to eat when reintroducing food. The crop doesn’t seem to be reducing at all. It is weirdly movable and at times feels like a water balloon. I’m...

    Lost 2 roosters within 2 days...HELP!

    Hi! First time chicken owner here - however; we have been just that for over a year and a half now. Everything has been great thus far. It all started when Drew (my fiancé) finding a Cornish Cross (meat bird) that had fallen off a truck. Long story short, we decided to take him in and care for...

    Crop stuffed with grit

    Hello! My hen (Cochin bantam, 11 months) has had crop issues since at least the end of march. I’m not exactly sure what’s wrong with her; sometimes her crop is almost empty, sometimes it’s full. Sometimes it's all liquid, sometimes it’s doughy. But it’s never empty. It’s very odd since, out of...

    Help! Lethargic Hen with Mushy but Emptying Crop

    I have grown up with chickens my whole life and was recently asked to petsit 4 newly adopted hens for a friend. I'm not sure exactly how old they are but I think they are relatively new egg layers so maybe around 30 weeks? The first day hen sitting I noticed one Rhode Island Red was quite...

    Sour Crop or Something More Serious?

    Hi all, One of our lovely girls has a suspected case of sour crop, but I'm worried it may be something worse. The right side of her chest, where the crop is, is very enlarged to about the size of a tennis ball, I'd say. She is big for a hen and hasn't started laying even though she's about 7...

    Sour Crop Cured- but now chicken can't walk; almost comatose

    Hi everyone, long-time reader but first-time poster here. Recently, one of my hens got sour crop, and I was able to treat it with vomiting and Monistat. She was perking up and even eating again after the smell went away and her crop went down (she wouldn't eat for about a week, but was...

    Chicken doing something odd!

    I wanted to add a short video but that doesn’t seem to want to work. I have a Brahma hen that has been doing an odd motion with her neck. She always tends to fill herself up— she’s a big girl, and I’ve come to expect her crop to be pretty big. But I don’t typically notice her doing the funky...

    Sour Crop after Antibiotics

    I have a hen that recently got over a respiratory infection after a course of doxycycline. A day or two after I reintroduced her to the flock I noticed that once of my new pullets was pooping blood- I separated her and started everyone else on a preventative dose of Corid. I did a tremendously...
