Help my pullets crop won't empty

[daniellen]

Hello,

My 2 month old pullets crop has been full for at least the last two days. I checked it first thing this morning and it had not drained overnight so I isolated her with access to grit and water only. She is still hungry and has some spunk. I have been massaging her crop and it feels very liquidy. I think she may have an impacted crop. Can any of you tell from looking at the pictures if she has pendulous crop? Thank you

It looks pretty large and if it didn't empty over night I'd say something is wrong.
I think you should read this.

HooBoy...that does look stuffed!

It may not be pendulous yet,
but this impacting could lead to long term pendulocity(that's not really a word, but..).

What has it been eating?
