My 2 (or so) year old Dominique, Pauline, has been lethargic for a couple days. I finally caught her this evening. Her crop is HUGE and not hard, more like a balloon, and making gurgling sounds like a hungry stomach. She must've had this problem for a few days, because she's pretty skinny now.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

i think she has a sour crop. for natural treatment you can use some organic apple vinegar but if she's really weak you might need to make her throw it up.

there's a lot of information on the web about sour crop and on BYC as well. i would google it.

here's a good site

read under sour crop.

sorry i would link you some more but i was just about to go to sleep.

good luck i hope everything turns out well.
