Help! Crop trouble!

Oh okay! A video might be helpful then, I didn't know that😊. Okay, I'll try! Thank you! How much epsom salt to water you think?
I do about 1tsp - 1 cup of water, but for a more powerful one do 1/2 cup water - 1 tsp of epsom salt. If that makes sense. :)
 
I've heard it can be dangerous to try to vomit a bird because of the risk of them aspirating. I think we should check with an Educator on this. Maybe @Eggcessive, @coach723 or @azygous would be willing to chime in on this, especially since it sounds like grit is involved.

I would not make a hen vomit. It can lead to aspiration of crop contents.
Okay I tried but it didn't end up working anyways. Thank you so much for chiming in😊. Do you have any more advice? Nothing seems to be workingšŸ˜”
 
Do you have, or can you get, coconut oil? Make some little "pills" out of that and get them very cold or freeze them. Or get the coconut oil cold and then break off pieces. Pop some into her beak. Here's some good reading on crop issues.

I have been 😁 . I found it difficult to get the pills into her beak (my hands got oily and I couldn't get a hold of her beak lol) so I ended up putting some chunks on the side of her beak which she ate. I took a look at the article, very helpful thank you😁
