Hi, I let my chickies out in the yard late this afternoon and noticed that all of the youngsters (7 about 2 1/2 months old) were swollen on one side of the breast. My older chickens have it too, though it isn't as pronounced. I looked here and it seems that this is most likely their crops. When do I panic?
I fed them all a bunch of calamari this afternoon, and it seems to me that it's the most likely culprit. They had a lot of spinach this morning too but they've had that before. They've had calamari before too and loved it, but there was never very much of it. Today I had a lot, so everyone got some.
Is there anything I can/should do to help them get through this? They are all still acting healthy, they only look deformed.
