Good that she's not on antibiotics and that her crop is emptying. Refresh me on what her diet consists of please. Also, does her beak area have any more sour smell to it?
If you feel like you're certain that her crop has emptied properly (overnight on its own), I'd transition her to a moist mash of Starter Feed, some Fried Egg Yolk and Yogurt mixed together with ONE of the following for the next 2-4 days:
- few drops of Poultry Nutri-Drench OR
- a few drops of Poly-Vi-Sol OR
- about a 1/16 tablet of Vitamin B-Complex crushed/pulverized
Mix this to a very moist consistency to help aid in her digestion of it until we're sure she's past crop blockages, and feed her first thing in the morning. Make sure she eats as much as you can get in her too: for a 2 to 3 week old chick, that would be maybe two to three pea-sized amounts, but the more you can get in her the better. When we make the mix, we mix only enough to feed the chick in one sitting and refrigerate the Egg and Yogurt until we need to make the next mix...
FOR DOSES/FEEDING LATER IN THE DAY, JUST USE A MOIST MIX OF THE FEED, YOGURT AND EGG WITHOUT THE VITAMINS - SHE GOT ENOUGH VITAMINS IN THE MORNING. Feed her as often as she'll eat throughout the rest of the day too, and make sure she's drinking PLENTY of water - we don't want to see any more blockages or sour crop smells.
You can stay with the electrolyte water with the vitamin therapy, but dropping the electrolytes during vitamin therapy is ok too. The vitamins are the essential thing we're trying to get in her.
