Pebbles in crop

[rmtwright]

We have a Jersey Giant that has a mass of pebbles in her crop. Any suggestion on how to remove them. Have wrap in towel and laid her on her back while massaging the crop area and she expels a liquid with foul odor and a few pebbles, still the size of a golf ball. Help!!!!

sorry this is a stupid question-are you talking about these types of pebbles?

I have no experience but it sounds like she has an impacted/sour crop. Can you give her some coconut oil or olive oil and massage? I think you need to deal with impaction first and then the sour crop. Tagging casportpony and azygous.

If a vet is possible, I would take her in for possible crop surgery, especially if the pebbles do not pass with normal massage and a little time.
