My six month old black sex link hen was apparently healthy until just an hour ago I noticed she was listless (just lies there, does not try to walk) and breathing heavily. She did not resist or struggle or squat as she normally would when I picked her up. I can feel that her crop is very very full. It feels like whole kernel feed corn. She may have got into my deer bait pile which is whole kernel feed corn. Do you think she has an overfull crop? Is there a cure / treatment?
Should I normally avoid allowing my chickens access to whole kernel feed corn?
Thanks in advance.
