Hello!
I have a silkie hen, about a year old, who is bloated. She is acting normal. She is alert, eating, drinking, etc., but her crop is huge. About the size of a tennis ball, which is extra large for a small silkie hen.
All of my other birds are normal, she is the only one that appears to be different.
I had her peck at some grit to see if that would help (just a couple of minutes ago).
Also, I didn't smell anything stinky on her breath. Would that rule out soured crop?
Any help you could offer would be fantastic!
Thanks in advance!
