Hello, I have nine crested cream legbars. One of them passed out a week ago on the grass and was very sleepy for a couple of days. I took her out of the coop and monitored her. She is doing much better but I notice that she keeps her head mostly to the right when she is moving about. I have checked her crop but do not find anything unusual in the sense of smell or touch, although her crop seems to be slightly swollen. She is back with her flock and they are all not allowed in the yard right now. They are getting gourmet cooking - eggs with shell, scrambled or raw mixed with yogurt, garlic-infused olive oil, oatmeal, crumbles - no free roaming greens or grains for now. I also added some ACV to their water. Any additional advice is appreciated.
 
Welcome to BYC!
I'd stop all treats (all of the extras you mentioned above) and feed only a pelleted or crumble age appropriate commercially made chicken feed, immediately.

Can you get a picture of some fresh poop please?
