Partial crop blockage??

[Sherri1990]

Make sure she's drinking lots of water?

You're welcome.

I am. She is still in the nesting box and hadn’t done a thing but I did bring her water and she drank. It has apple cider vinegar in it. I felt her crop and It feels seedy and not smooshy right now.

Is it hard, or slightly squishy?

Squishy like if you took a waterbaloon and filled it 90% with seeds.

Okay, grainy.
I'd wait, & see if it shrinks in size overnight before continuing.

Do you think this is good or still uncertain?

Just got her first poop of the day. What do you think?

Passing poop is a good sign. There's alittle intestinal shedding, which is normal, & happens from time to time.
There's lots of urates which is due the amount of water she's drank.
