My question is What is the role of grit in an impacted crop situation.
1) Is lack of grit a contributing factor in crop impaction, or is that not known for sure? Or do you believe it is only excess of grass, hay etc?
2) I never see grit mentioned as something to try in an impacted crop thread. Is that because it is already too late for that? Or is there a worry that with the addition of grit at that point the bird will be in danger of crop damage during recommended massage treatments?
Just wondering...
