Impacted crop to ... doughy or squishy crop?

This is her with her friends before it all happened. She is the one at the plate closest to the camera. It was not long after this pumpkin day, that she started drinking excessively. She is not yellow on this picture.

Have you felt her abdomen just in front of her legs for swelling? That would be where fluid accumulates when the liver starts to fail. The yellow may be connected to this.

My Brahma is called Lady Di, and she was one of three chicks I began my flock with. The three would line up "shoulder to shoulder" and march out to free range. They were awesome.

Lady Di still rules the flock, doesn't take any guff from any of the flock, knows how to throw around her ponderous weight. She's blind in one eye, but she still can lay down the law at the feeder if a younger chicken crowds her.

I will check for that tomorrow. Thank you.
Should I switch from garlic water to vitamin Water?

Lady Di sounds great!

Vitamin water is a good idea. You can keep the garlic in it. It shouldn't make any difference.

Ok, thanks! She was so preoccupied with her bra, she didn’t take water before bed. Hopefully she’ll get used to it.

I’ve a hen with the same problem used all the treatments. Checked this morning and she’s still not clearing her crop. Small soft ball still there this morning. Waiting on some liquid paraffin. And also Daktarin oral gel and kafir. If these don’t work it’s the vet.

Good luck!

So, Priscilla still has stuff in her crop this a.m., despite the bra. Shucks, I was really hoping for better news. I readjusted it a bit this morning.
@azygous was it you who said not to give her the monistat cream if it has stearyl aclcohol? The tube I bought has that as the very last ingredient. But I wonder if I should try it. What do you think?
Also, no swelling to be felt in the abdomen in front of her legs. So, maybe the yellow wasn’t indicating a Liver or kidney problem.
She is having a great time preening on my lap. Probably trying to get the bra off.
