Help! Please!!

If you want to vomit her, then do it. Just know that there's a risk of aspiration, they can choke and die or even inhale fluids/contents of the crop into the airway.

A crop issue if often a symptom of an underlying condition. Hard to know what that is sometimes. Most crop issues take days to resolve so patience is needed to continue to work on the crop and encourage her to eat and drink normally while addressing the crop symptoms.

Oh okay. Thanks! Its morning here, and I checked her crop. Its noticably smaller. She has pooped 3 times. Not as green as yesterday with a pee I guess. I started her on calcium like you said. Hopefully she will pull through

I’m glad her crop went down! Sounds like she’s doing better then?

I know you’re really concerned about her, but I agree with wyorp rock, I dont think I’d risk vomiting her. About a week is what I’ve experienced for crop issues to clear up, so it does take time. You said her crop has changed size today, that is good, she may just need some more time to get things moving.

Combs change color/consistency (for lack of a better word) for multiple reasons, including dehydration, hormones, temperature, excitement, illness. She just isn’t feeling well, it fits her comb has flopped a bit.

I know she is stressing you out, but give her some time; you’re doing everything you can at the moment.

Thank you! Oh my goodness you just made me feel so much better about her crop. I was worried because I thought it should go down after a day. I wont vomit her because I dont want her to have to go through that and I dont want to risk her asperating something. She also pooped 4 good green-ish brown-ish poops since this morning.

I got molasses so I am going to try the molasses flush on her. Her crop is moving today, but slowly. Sometimes its big, so I massage it and then it gets a little smaller. So hopefully this molasses can get things cleared up.


Here is a pic of her poop, good or bad?

Here is a update of today, so she started off this morning with an almost empty crop, she pooped 1 time during the night but 8 times during the day. Today, she didnt eat much, but we did give her lots of fluids along with doing a molasses flush. She does not sleep all day, but still is lethargic. She talks to us and looks at us. She did preen today which im proud of her for. Her crop seems to get bigger and smaller throughout the day. Im just worried about why she isn't pooping that much, but I guess its because she doesn't eat much. Im hopeful tomorrow will be better because im so done with sick chickens.


Edit: I put water, electrolytes and Nutri-Drentch, mixed it with cornbread and she almost ate the entire bowl. She has cornbread in her cage and I kept encouraging her to eat it, but I guess she didnt feel well. She also drank watermelon juice and made a poop that almost landed by my leg.

Why can't she have all that mixed with her feed to make a mash?
She's lacking in nutrition if cornbread is all she's eating.

Crop was almost empty this morning, but you gave a flush. Did she poop more after the molasses?

She pooped like 3 times after the molasses. Last time I gave her mash it got stuck in her crop, (or at least that is what I am thinking.) I can try again. Would that explain why she isn't walking and getting better?

I want to give her asprin because I feel like she might be in pain, how do I figure out if she is. I made the wet mash, but she does not want to even look at it.


Edit: Im going to give her 81 mg of low dose asprin because I read over the symtoms of pain in a chicken, and she basically has every single one. But where?? I can't figure out where she would be in pain. Would that be caused by worms dying out???
