Can anyone explain somethings to me?
Idk if anyone will reply but I have some questions about sour/impacted crop.
My main question is if he has a blocked crop and I'm giving him medicine and liquid food is that even going anywhere or is it just sitting in his crop? His crop hasn't gone down much since the vet emptied it and if I'm having to keep giving him liquids isn't that just building up in his crop? How is that going to help him, I'm trying to learn as much as I can with this but I'm just not understanding that. Isn't sour crop from a impacted crop, so I'm not sure how this whole thing happened over night or if it's been going on for a bit and I haven't noticed? I always check his crop so idk
Is the blockage ever going to get out or pass through?
I'm not trying to give him too much liquids at a time because I don't want him spewing fluids everytime he moves. He has perked up a little by making some noises but only if I'm near him but otherwise he has been very lethargic and just sits in a dog crate all day hunched over with his wings drooping down, crop about the size of my hand around it.
