Hi all: Our 7 month old black australorp had a sour crop. She was on the mend, eating and pooping. She had her crop flushed twice, once by us and once by a vet. Her crop went down and everything seemed fine; she was eating yogurt and crumble + drinking water with Apple Cider Vinegar. This morning, while checking on them, she was quiet and her comb was leaning a little. I saw her go and drink water but wasn't excited for her crumble mash. I checked her crop and it felt like a ballon and when I pressed it a bit, gas came out of her mouth. I pressed more and more gas and the water she had just drank came up, too.

Any ideas on what we can do to help her?

Thanks so much!!!!!!!

i would probably try to get all the air or gas out and if water comes out with it that's fine it just doesn't sound healthy to have gas in her crop and leave it

also don't squeeze gently push and message
