It’s ok that you soaked her, but I would not do that again for now.I did feel inside the vent for an egg and did not feel anything I will check again tomorrow. I'm just curious why would you place her in a steamed up bathroom and I did already soak her today is that ok or will it harm her or something

The steam is hydrating and warm - it's an alternative to giving a bird a soaking in warm epsom salts bath. Sometimes a hen may be so lethargic, sick or weak that soaking them will cause a lot of stress and send them over the edge.I do have this stuff called rooster booster it has alot of different vitamins in it I did not give her any of that but I did give her some probiotics and electrolytes. I will get her some of that rooster booster stuff and mix it in with her water
It's not uncommon for a hen to have crop issues if there's a reproductive problem.She is a lotot better today. she is drinking A LOT of water . I think she was dehydrated. She is also walking around a bit and tucked her wings in like they are supposed to be she ate a little yogurt but has not touched her food yet. I checkher crop and it is full but it is squishy like a water balloon and made a gurgling sound when I rubbed it. I think it's just because all of the water she drank?
