After long time antibiotics my hen has bad doughy/ sour crop. I have used all the remides. I finally got prescriptions for Fluconazole and Nystatin.
Floconazole is 10mg/ ml. Suspension reconstituted to 35ml.
Give .8ml Once a day for 7 days.

When I gave it to her I massaged her squishy crop. Massive gas and burping. Wasn't burpy before the meds.
Is this normal??

Should I double up with Nystatin when her crop empties?
 
I would follow the vets instructions.
When you massaged her crop you were breaking up the bubbles from the fermenting that is happening in the crop and it was coming out.

Once she is finished with the treatment, you should offer some probiotics to her to help rebalance her GI system after the long course of antibiotics. You can use a little kefir or some buttermilk mixed into a mash made of her normal feed.
