I have just dealt with something similar. My little polish ebony was all hunched up and isolating herself. I brought her in and monitored her. Her crop was mushy, but she also hadn’t pooped for a good few hours. This made me think she had a blockage. I treated for an impacted crop, but also sour crop. I syringed olive oil straight into her crop, and massaged every couple of hours in a downward motion. I also gave caneston cream. (Ladies thrush cream) for sour crop. I Withheld food for 24 hours. She passed the biggest poop ever (I suspect long grass was the problem) I continued treatment for sour crop twice a day for 7 days. Hopefully @azygous @Wyorp Rock or @Eggcessive can help you pin point exactly what the problem is.

Is this cream something to have in the chicken first aid kit. If so what brand is best.

It is canesten cream in the Uk, I think it is Nystatin in the US. It is an anti fungal cream used to treat yeast infection. I would recommend having it, you never know when these things will crop up.

Edited to add: No pun intended
