Some people on this thread: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/587365/anyone-what-should-a-healthy-crop-feel-like describe it very well!

Thank you. I have done a bunch more reading and will check her again tonight and feel the others for comparison, if they let me!

That's the best way to learn.. keep feeling everyone regularly and you'll know what normal feels like. It will also get them used to being checked so if there ever is an issue, they won't think it's weird that you're poking them!
