Crop not clearing. Not sure what to do. Please help!

I think it’s sour crop or could be both because her vomit smells really bad and sour
I’ve tried treating her thinking it’s both with the best I can do I just don’t know what else to try or how to make her better.

They have only been on chick starter and pullet grower. I haven’t given them any treats. I’ve let her on the grass with supervision but she never pecked the grass only the food I provided and water. I gave them grit also thinking this might help.
I’ve fasted her overnight and her crop was large and like a water balloon still.
I’ve tried the oil and crop massage but when I massage the contents of her crop fill up her neck and don’t go down into the little hole.
I’ve tried apple cider vinegar in her water. I’ve tried to give her a little yoghurt but she refused.
She has been vomiting brown liquid that looks like the food mash and smells horrible. When she drinks water she vomits clear liquid. Her crop feels like a full water balloon when she threw up heaps her crop went down but only slightly.
Should I do anything for her possible aspiration?

I don’t know what else to do.
 
Don't give her anymore water it's creating the balloon. When you massage her crop do it close to her upper chest.

Does it feel like it's breaking up when you massage it?
 
It doesn't feel like there’s anything in there to break just feels like water and when I massage from upper chest it still manages to go up her neck.
 
She’s eating chick starter would that be okay or should I stop her from eating?
She must be super hungry. She just started scratching the ground, is that a good sign?
