Hello. My hen, Saki, of 5-6 months, has several problems. 3 weeks ago, I started to see that her crop was big. I ignore it a little because Kero, when he was younger, had it too sometimes (Kero is my rooster. I only have them both. Kero is like 5 months older).
I have always hold her to pet her and kiss her, but I started to notice a smell like a dead cat. I didn't thing it was her, I just think she got dirty.
After that, I noticed how Saki had stopped flying, so my mother and I thought it was because of the big crop.
I looked over that, right here, then we gave her oil and we massaged her crop only a few times because she didn't wanted to open her mouth and we couldn't make her.
We thought she will got better.
A while passed and it remained the same. She had a big crop and was no longer flying and hardly ran. The crop just seemed to get a little bigger each time. Also, we began to notice that a lump grew in the upper part of the wing. I got to thinking that her wing was bad and that was why she was not flying anymore.
Saki walked slower and slower.
A couple of days ago, the lump that was in the wing burst. I have no idea what it was but it looked really bad.
My mother and I checked her more, we raised her wing and saw that HUGE thing at her side. It was horrible. It never occurred to us to lift the wing ...
Saki looks very bad and sad. Someone told us that she probably ate something, that we should gave her ampicillin. I just gave her that an hour ago, because we did not have money yesterday. But I don't know if really that's it, it looks terrible. I want to think about that, but I know it's better to know what she really have and try to treat it.
I can't go to the vet. I don't have any money and I do not know any close. Could you tell me what she have and what to do?
Thanks so much for reading. I am extremely distressed and I am not sure if I am writing well, because besides being nervous, I do not speak English very well. Thank you again.
