Help, opposum attack

[Teganmarie]

Ok. Update.
Won't take feeding tube.
Yes there is still a hole in her crop, still leaking, so idk I have been hand feeding egg and flock 911 to cause idk what to do about feed and grit with a hole in her crop.
Pretty sure she has sour crop too, I am pulling pieces of grass from the hole from over a week ago and it smells awful.
And now she is egg bound.
I am lost please help

((Teganmarie)) - in the hands of @azygous and @Wyorp Rock and other such wise ones. Is it possible to stitch closed a hole in the crop??

 

[Wyorp Rock]

She has a puncture wound/bite wound there and... I believe it is leaking. I am not sure if it is her crop or stomach.

Ok it is a puncture into the crop

Yes there is still a hole in her crop, still leaking

So, she's got a wound and hole in the crop, it's been leaking this whole time?

Is vet care an option?

It would be good if you can please post some clear, well lit photos of your hen, her injuries, the hole, etc. If necessary, trim feathers away from the hole/wound in the crop, so we can see it.

How large is the hole in the crop? Measure and report the exact size.

Before I give you my advice, this is something I need to know.

Ok, I will get a picture within the hour, I am not home ATM, thank you for the reply. It is the size of a nickel, it has a plug, it is not a gaping hole, but the center of it is leaking.
No it only started leaking two days ago. The attack was the Tuesday BEFORE Christmas.
Idk if I blew a hole in the scab while tube feeding.
Since two days ago it has been leaking and smelling awful and grass has been coming out of it
I JUST discovered she is egg bound, I was worried about it and yes, felt by her vent and there is a hard lump

That is the wound and I have been cleaning it with my own version of Rooster Booster wound spray, goldenseal, comfrey, tea tree oil, etc. then covering it with honey to keep it hydrated and a piece of paper towel

 

[Teganmarie]

I have been giving her ledum palustre for puncture wounds.
Again feeding her a mix of flock 911, raw egg, water, collagen and a little bit of goldenseal for potential sour crop.

 

[Teganmarie]

There are pieces of grass still in her crop.

At this point should I get nutridrench so I can help her pass the egg and not over doing flock911?
