Hello, recently my Lilly had i think impaction crop or something else i think it was impaction crop. But we fixed it with her. Ok now there's a new problem, I was feeling her crop and it feels like there is rice or beads in there it. WHAT IS THIS AND HOW DO I FIX IT
 
Whoa there, deep breath. It's probably just some stones/pebbles she's eaten. Hens don't have teeth- instead, they eat a fair amount of stones and dirt and keep it in their crop, and use it to grind up the vegetation they eat. Sort of like a blender. As long as she's interested in eating/drinking and is pooping normally, I couldn't be concerned. Chances are her crop is just empty since you flushed the impaction and you can feel the stones in it because of this.
