6wk Bantam Neurological Issues

If the chick is eating on its own, then it won't likely starve in the short term. But, long term, the blockage could deprive the chick of adequate calories and nutrients.

The oil and stool softener treatment is quite safe.
Tried our first round of stool softener + coconut oil yesterday evening. It is morning here now. No change in the blockage really, although I did notice that it is bendable/pliable in the crop. How long should I continue stool softener treatment? I am starting to get nervous about sour crop or something similar, just because it has been over a week since symptoms began. No smell or anything to indicate sour crop yet, though.
