Do you smell anything sour around her crop or coming out of her mouth?

Has she been dropping regularly? Or is she backed up? Sorry if I'm being annoying but I get very concerned when it comes to an ill animal

your definately not annoying! not sure she had some poop stuck to her backside and the she pooped all liquid so i was able to get some in a bag...the vet should have the results tomorrow

From what I'm reading in my chicken box and old posts from BYC it sounds like it is sourcrop. Seems as though she has a lot of the symptoms. I'm reading about things to do too help I'm reading that diluted raw apple cider vinegar helps cleanse the crop and help regulate. Also probiotics

i am not sure about sour but she stinks...not sure if its her poop or what

I don't know for sure that it is sour Kraut bye either way you could try the apple cider vinegar Because I can't imagine it would hurt. I give my chickens diluted apple cider vinegar every two weeks to keep them healthy so I know it's good for chickens

sour crap does make a stench. And if it has caused infection I would think the poop testWill show that. Like I said I've never had to deal with it before. This is just what research is telling me

I agree with sour crop. Sounds exactly like what she has.

Crops can become slow and puffy from other diseases, but if it is smelly and contains off color liquid, it may be sour crop. Scroll down to the section on "slow or sour crop" to get some info:
