Chicken Drooling

[hannahlynn]

One of my hens - a golden comet - is drooling a large amount. She’s not lethargic. She’s eating and drinking fine, and she’s running around with the flock, but it’s like she’s just spitting up a large amount of water. Sometimes it’s just a bit, and sometimes it’s much more - seems like enough to fill a shot glass. She has just had a lot of water to drink, but it still seems concerning that she’s doing this. Anyone know what might be up?

I'd check to make sure her crop is emptying overnight. If it's not, then I'd address that symptom according to the article below:
