Oil of Oregano

[Reds mommy]

I have a sick chicken (Meemee) and she has a sour crop. Is there a recommended dosage for Oil of Oregano to be given in a syringe for an antifungal treatment. We love our Meemee Gonzales and want her to get better. If there is a better idea, I'm all ears. We do not have access to Vets. Thank you in advance.

How old is Meemee? These are good articles on crop issues, including sour crop:

Crop problems can sometimes be a symptom of something going on lower in the digestive tract. What do her droppings look like, and does her abdomen (below the vent between the legs) feel bloated at all?
When treating sour crop I've used monistat, which works, but if there is an underlying problem, then it will persist or reoccur.
This article is on using oregano, in all forms. The oil is very concentrated, so only a very small amount is usually used. I've used it as an immune booster and antibacterial, but not for crop issues. One drop per gallon of water is usually the amount of oil given, and generally not directly orally with syringe. It can also be diluted and sprayed over feed. Most of the time I mix the plant or dried herb into the feed.
