Impacted crops can be treated by flushing the crop with water or a bit of oil to help break up and get rid of the ball of stuff. If oil, water and massaging does not it better, then a vet will have to do surgery.

Offer soft food after 12-24 hours, not hard food. Confine the bird in a crate or in a coop. Good soft foods include scrambled eggs, plain yogurt, and softened bread.
 
How to i flush the crop? And what kind of oils

Vegetable oil or coconut oil I think both work.

I copied this from another post. I hope it helps:
very simple
mix the 1 pt of warm water
1/2 cup of baking soda
mix good and fill a child'sd ear syringe with the baking soda water
put the chicken on the table in front of you
if there is some one to hold the chicken it is easier to do
now take the filled syringe and put it in the back of the throat of the chicken
ex[ell all the water
now lay the syringe down
take your hand and bring it up tightly against the crop of the chicken
all he while pushing on the hand to breing up the spoiled feed etc out of the crop
the chicken will not hold it back but as chickens do not vomit you are the one bringing the spoiled feed out the beak
do not turn the chicken upside down
do the flushing at least three times and let the bird rest
DO NOT FEED IT FOR 24 HRS
let it rest and then only feed it
one sliced of bread soaked in milk
into the milk cut a 1000 mg capsule of Vitamin E and crush 1 tablet of selinium and mix with the soaked bread
feed this twice a day for a week
also have 1 tbsp of apple cider vinegar in qt of water
by now she is getting better
then you can see if she does alright on the crumble chicken feed
DO NOT FEED HER ANY WHOLE OR CRACKED GRAINS ALL THIS TIME
