I brew, a gallon of sugar water at good temperature would produce enough gas's to fill a crop in that time, I can't see the amount of yeast in a crop with limited food being able to produce gas that quickly. I would think that either the gas is coming up from lower in the digestive tract or she is swallowing too much air when trying to eat. Not sure which is more likely.
I agree with this. I’m not sure which, either, but am leaning toward it coming from lower in the digestive tract just because after she eats or drinks, she cranes her neck toward her back/tail area.
She’s not pooping because she’s not eating, that’s the best poop she’s had in a few days. I’ve wiped the ointment off her eyes (a few days to a week ago, lost track of time), and the one seems like it could open but there’s too much inflammation currently from healing.
I thought this as well, but I’ve been doing safeguard for about 3 days and haven’t seen a significant load. I’m doing .75 mL for her since she’s about 3lbs, is that correct?
Could it be coccidiosis lower in the digestive tract? Could that possibly produce gas like that?
Continue with the regimen
Cocci will make them weak, I wonder if antibiotics could make cocci worse. Do you have corid? Can you start treating her?
The cases I've seen had excessive shed lining, which doesn't look like you've had it here.
I’m hesitant to do this because my flock free ranges and I’m not sure what’s wrong with her. I did do it the other day when it was warm enough. She’s in a room right beside a window, that may be the best I can do today. I’ll watch the temperature and pray about it.
Every poop she’s had the last 2 days has looked like that. I didn’t think anything of it at first because I know shedding lining is normal, but I’m not sure if it should happen every time?
