Impacted crop

I treated her for impacted crop no food just water and olive oil for the first 42 hours. She expelled a lot of the impaction and went down to a bouncy ball size so I started feeding her scrambled eggs and blended vegetables. Also giving plain yogurt. apple cider vinegar in her water with garlic powder so she doesn’t get sour crop. There is no odor coming from her mouth at all but I still can feel the crop in the morning and it feels doughy. I believe she had eaten alot of sand and that is what impacted her she is always in a run and not free ranged. I am now giving her mash ( her food soaked in warm water) she really isn’t interested in it too much . She is pooping but it is alot of water and some matter but not normal
Do provide water free choice.

Cut out the veggies. Provide her with her normal feed (you can offer it wet or mushy if you wish). Bits of soft cooked egg is always good.
I suggest that you read the article linked below for practical proven methods in treating crop problems. None of these issues are solved overnight - there's no quick fix, it takes time.
