I think one of my youngsters has sour crop. I've been reading up on natural remedies and see a lot of post mention red wine. Anyone have advice on this or other things?

Flat coke has to be flat! As you know coke will eat rust off stuff etc. the flat coke will liquifie any grain in the croop. May take overnight or a day after but it will work. Pam

Ok, I brought her in last night for observation. I gave her only water and massaged her crop. This am her crop is back to normal but she still has the terrible odor when she opens her beak. Poop is normal. Should I still try the coke? Would yogurt help? Maybe a little grit?
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

I would go with flat coke. Yogurt will give her the runs but would give her good bacteria. You could go with the probiotics and electrolights that would do the same thing with out the runs.i would offer grit with food. Pam

Ok. I have not fed her yet today, water only.
What about minced garlic? She eats it up when I offer it.

Garlick is on the do not feed to chickes list. You can look that up on BYC. A little doesn't harm them but it's cumlative so if you've been doing it for a while I wouldn't do it any more. You can start her on scrambled eggs. Pam
