Please help! Bantam is egg bound and I accidentally got NutriDrentch in her lungs

Ok, it’s ok! Sorry for the confusion. I didn’t write it in a very clear way either.

I sure hope we can get some help for your girl! Keep us posted.

Thank you! I will!

Thank you! I will!

Thank you! I will!
I also found something that a chicken can develop called a lash egg, it is a pocket of hard and soft puss and tissue that forms where the egg is developed. Since I do not feel any super hard shape in her abdomen, it might actually be one of those. I hope not!

best thing you can do is stay calm when dealing with it so they can get you the correct advice quickly, wait until after it's taken care of then if ya need to freak out. I know it's not easy when your chickens in trouble, hopefully someone can help soon. In the meantime we are here with you.

Sorry your hen aspirated. How much do you think she aspirated?

Currently it is so big and filled with fluid (I assume poop?) that I cannot feel the hard thing anymore.

A belly full of fluid is called acsites. It can be from organ failure and/or disease.
A fatal symptom in my experience. Tried to nurse a bird thru it once, she only suffered for a longer time, and was filled with tumors when I preformed a DIY necrospy. I didn't wait so long the next time it happened.

Thanks, @aart. Isn't there an article or something about giving liquid to chickens so that doesn't happen?

I think @aart was right. She passed away during the night, but I don’t think there was anything we could do for her. She was still having trouble breathing, and there was no way that lump would have been able to come out. Thank you for everyone’s help here, I hope you never have to experience this with one of your chickens.​

I'm sorry for your loss

It's very hard to know what was going on with her unless a necropsy is performed, but based on your description, I would speculate that she had a reproductive disorder - Egg Yolk Peritonitis, cancer, Internal Laying, etc., complicated by Ascites (water in the belly). Crop issues are often a symptom of these because of inflammation/pressure blocking the intestines.
If you still have the body, you can refrigerate it and send it to your state lab for necropsy, this will give you some answers or if you feel you can do an informal one yourself, open the abdomen and take a look - if you do that, then take some photos of what you see along with the organs like heart/liver, we may be able to help you with that.
