It was fine a few hours ago. We gave Them watermelon to snack on and now her whole neck is swollen. She's not having breathing problem and she's still trying to eat and play. I held her upside down and ran my had down her beck and nothing. Could she eat too much water melon? C
 
Could it possibly an allergic reaction to watermelon? I guess birds could have them just like we do?
 
It's okay - sounds like she just has a full crop. Perfectly normal. Chickens and turkeys pretty much wear their stomachs on the front of their necks, so she just has a full belly

Not to worry.
