Thank you for your help and advice! We actually ended up using a long tube and about 15 ml of mineral oil 2-3 times a day and massaging for about a week and she was finally impact free today!!! But the impaction and sour crop lasted about 2 weeks because the first week we were trying to use a syringe to get oil down her. We also tried just about everything we heard/read to get the impaction moving throughout that first week. Now we're just in the process of weaning her back on her pellets so we can let her back out with the other girls! Thankfully she made it through and is still pretty strong after all that! Thanks again!
