My chicken is barfing yellow liquid non-stop and has liquidy yellow stool. She's having trouble breathing. Why can I do???

Hello! Wanted to give an update on Fiona. She lived through the night and her crop emptied most of the way! Her breathing is fine today and she ate a little food and water. Another successful flush too. She is sleeping in a puppy carrier in the basement tonight so I can keep a close eye on her. If her condition worsens than I will bring her to the vet. I'm keeping an eye out for pneumonia.

Thanks for all of your advice! I'll send some pictures of Fiona in the morning

Yay!!! So glad to read this! Go Fiona go!

Brownish-yellow runny poop with mucous usually indicates EYP.

I forgot to add that the lower abdomen behind the legs and below the vent is usually very swollen and full of fluid, often being mistaken for water belly (ascites). If you needle aspirate some fluid it's brown and murky as opposed to clear odorless fluid from ascites.

Just curious how Fiona did? She survived right?

She passed away several weeks ago. I'm sorry for not updating you - I thought I did but I must have forgotten. I've been very busy and preoccupied. Thank you all for your advice - Fiona wouldn't have had a chance without your guidance
