Impacted crop to ... doughy or squishy crop?

Pics
Ok. She is not wearing it yet. The glue was still wet.
First I had her out where just her former 3 friends were. She pecked at lots of stuff, ignored the feeder, but went for the water, took 25 drinks and it ran out of her beak. Her colleages came and started harassing her.
I decided, bigger space is better and now she is out there in a big area with all the chickens and goats.
Looking at her next to the other Brahmas, her facial skin is yellow, whereas theirs is pink. Thoughts?
The plan is to leave her out for a couple of hours, then bring her in, see if she can eat somehing and put the bra on. Not sure yet, if we will try and put her on the roost in the dark tonight or not yet.
 
Do you have access to poultry vitamins or baby vitamins without iron? I was thinking last night that her extended fast has likely caused a vitamin deficiency.

Can you get a photo of her face closeup so we can see her coloring?

I really hate to bring it up, but she may have some very serious underlying issue such as reproductive cancer. It's always a default diagnosis after ruling out treatable things that haven't responded to treatment.
 
We are very aware of the possibility of a serious underlying condition.
Here is both our faces close up.

That is just ...... no words. To be that impacted, it probably went all the way to the gizzard. Had you considered crop surgery before you put him down? You demonstrated just how simple it is to make an incision in the outer skin, then an incision in the crop sack and it would have emptied just as it did with the meat cleaver. You glue the one-inch incisions after emptying the crop sack and that's about it. Under more sterile conditions of course.
