Hen tipping forward while trying to poop, what is wrong. Is she constipated?

[PoppySeedy]

She struggled to lay her egg this morning and ever since she's been sleepy, lying down and not drinking (but happy to eat) her crop is quite hard and her body runs hot, I have her a soak but idk what it is

Ok. You can gently massage the crop and give her a little vegetable oil mixed with warm water. Can I ask what her feed is? And also, the video did not go through, sorry. Good luck.

I have tried doing that for a few hours and I think there mightve been a bit of attitude improvement but not much, I'll try upload the vid to YouTube and send a link

If the crop is full and impacted, it can pull her center of balance off. I had a hen with this problem. Read this link and if you can determine the crop is impacted, follow the treatment instructions. It may save her life
