We have a bunch of red ranger meat chicks all are about fully feathered but still have a little ways to go. One of the hens seems to be compacted her gullet is really full more than normal. I think she needs to poop or something. She is still eating and drinking but I am afraid she will explode if I don't try to help her some how? Can I give laxitive to a chicken? Or what would work? Wife is saying coffee or prune juice, I don't know. This is our first batch of meat birds. Could it be something else? Wife said she has been like this for a few days, I just noticed this morning. The rest of the hens are doing great. They all have grit. So any advice would be great. Thank you
