Hi everyone, so I am in a bit of a pickle with my new baby chicks. We recently had a baby chick (6 months of age) diagnosed with "Sour Crop" or "Thrash" and it died, sadly. At this time I am concerned that another baby chick has this same condition and I am trying to nip it in the butt right away. I hear cultured yogurt is good for chickens with or without "Sour Crop" but since it is like a yeast infection isn't dairy and sugar bad for that? I also wanted to see if anyone knew what type of signs we should keep our eyes out for other than the normal not roosting, not eating, dazing, and saggy comb. I will most likely call the new vet we have, but I am worried I am just a overly concerned chicken owner. Help?
