Please help me . I believe my 11 month old RIR hen has developed sour crop. Yesterday morning I went to feed my flock and she was kind of listless and just not her normal self. I picked her up and her crop was large, like when when she went to roost. I just decided to see what it was like today. I went out today and her crop was no different. I really don't want to lose her. She's one of my favorite and prettiest hens. She is supposed to go to the fair this year. And I don't know if this matters but yesterday night when I went to check on her she decided to roost on a nest box instead of the roosting pole and in the nest box with her was a broken egg and half a shell. Her abdomen didn't feel swollen so I don't think she's egg bound. But her feathers were ruffled. I just don't wanna lose her.
