Not just molting-crop HELP! 🙏🏻♥️

[My Very First 6 Chickens]

Thanks for checking in! Dandelion still had hard crop but I feel like it’s smaller? I didn’t have time to massage this morning but after work she may get one! I’m thankful she is eating, drinking and acting more normal! Here she is being naughty!

Tee hee, fresh girl! Well, crop rubs offer great relief for chickens i have read anyway. If shes not suffering, you may make it part of a nice, relaxing time for you both. Good luck and cheers to a thriving flock (even if one needs a little extra TLC.) I have had 3 different chickens in the house for medical purposes only. Today i brought my girl Patient into the house for nothing more than a treat! It was nice to have a chicken in the house with out a serious need. Just 1 raisin, and she followed me out

UPDATE on Dandelion..her crop is empty this morning!! It seems to have been just getting smaller and smaller and today it finally was empty upon checking! I’m thrilled because I have another major issue with a diffeent girl so I needed this break! To be honest all I did was many massages first few days, coconut oil first 2-3 days with massaging and then I massaged once a day for a two weeks. I focused on morning massages… I did add small grit to my run and I noticed her eating that.. that could have been a major help! They free range all day so I didn’t think I needed it! Thanks for all the help! She is eating and drinking normally as well! One issue down… 2 to go! Isn’t it always like that? Dandelion says thank you!
