Help! Sour vs impacted crop?

Oh, I didn’t think you were accusing me. I had just never thought of it. I wish I could send you the video. She really has no ability to find her food or water. I’m trying to associate sound with water container and food dish. She is staying inside the coop.o we have food and water in there with her. I’m really at a loss not sure what to do. I feel horrible. With her not eating or drinking much, I fear she won’t be here long. 😞
:hugs The poor thing!
I don't know what would have caused her to go blind.
I agree, if she's not getting enough to eat/drink then she won't last long.
One option would be to tube feed her at least once a day. It's not for everyone and her quality of life needs to be considered along with how much time you have to devote to her as well.

For video, upload to youtube and provide a link.

I wasn't accusing you or anything like that about the poisons, sometimes a bird might accidentally ingest something toxic and that will result in neurological symptoms.

Is she doing any better?
She really isn’t doing any better. Her vision is not back. The other hens have started really picking on her, which breaks my heart. I have her in a dog crate with food and water. Letting her sleep in the coop at night when the others don’t seem to bother her. The smaller confined area seems better for eating and drinking. So for now that’s all I can do. When ash is not falling from local fires, I’ll give her some yard time again.
 
She has lost weight, but seems to eat and drink happily when we watch her eat.
You mentioned giving her vitamins once before. I have been giving her vitamin water, wondering if there is anything more I can do to help her. I would love it if her sight came back. But after 3 weeks I think it is they way it will be
