Mountains Is her crop emptying? Treat sour crop as described in the article below. You can use Miconazole, Clotrimazole or Nystatin. https://www.backyardchickens.com/ar...w-to-know-which-one-youre-dealing-with.73607/ The scab looks like Breast Blister, is the roost rough or does your hen sit a lot?
